Text Blasts as Lead Generator
I want to incorporate text blasts into my lead generation. Any recommendations for a company to use and why would be extremely helpful.
I believe texting is a good way to reach people who are getting bombarded with calls all the time. The receiver can read and contemplate the initial reach in their own time and it's less disrupting.

@Connor Stark take these responses with a grain of salt, of course no one on these forums wants to get text blasts, unless your target market is cynical real estate investors. But that doesn't mean they don't work. My guess is no one on here wants to get cold calls or direct mailers either, but yet they keep coming so they must work for someone. I don't have any insight into text companies, but hopefully someone on here who does can chime in.
I don't want to see TV commercials for ambulance chasing attorneys, but there they are every day, so they must be reaching their target audience. I'm just collateral damage. Leads aren't going to ring your doorbell, if that were the case there would be no need for marketing anyway.
