Best Sms blast platform to use?
Currently using Batch leads which maxes me out at 1,000 texts a day, does anybody out there have a program that they recommend that is affordable and allow me to increase my volume of texts per day?
With Batchleads, you can send more. Call a sales representative and ask for an upgrade or feature that allows you to send more. We were sending 3,000 SMS a day with them until mid-December when our 10DLC campaigns with the carriers were shut down. This happened because carriers are no longer accepting 10DLC campaigns related to real estate. If you see anyone still sending SMS blasts, it's likely because they have set up campaigns under a different industry. However, I wouldn't recommend this approach as it could lead to big trouble and fines (up to $10,000 per non-compliant message).

What alternative method(s) would you recommend for beginners?
I'm a partner at Launch Control and a former Batch user. Like others have said, Launch is the leader when it comes to text. I have a personal sign-up link, so if you decide to make the switch, use my link! It comes with all of my outbound and drip campaign templates, which have taken over 100 hours to build out.
We are sending 4k texts a day on average with Smarter Contact with no daily sending limits. I know of investors in my network that are sending a lot more with no issues. Their messenger makes it easy to manage a large volume of conversations so with our volume 1 VA manages it full-time. I've used other cheaper solutions, but they're not nearly as good. Most are not even comparable, but I guess you get what you pay for
