SMS Marketing Automation

The highest open-rate channel in marketing. Two-way SMS campaigns, appointment reminders, follow-up sequences, and TCPA-compliant outreach.

What SMS Automation Actually Looks Like

SMS has a 98% open rate. Email has a 20% open rate on a good day. Text messages get read. The question is whether you can send them in a way that is compliant, welcomed, and converts.

BRD Media builds SMS marketing automation systems for Chicago service businesses. We handle TCPA-compliant consent collection, segmentation, automated sequences, two-way conversational flows, and broadcast campaigns.

SMS compliance is strict. The wrong setup triggers fines and carrier blocks. We handle compliance as part of every setup.

Leads go unanswered for hours.

Automated SMS acknowledgment fires within minutes of form submission.

Your email open rates are dying.

SMS breaks through inbox fatigue. 98% open rates vs 20% for email.

Your TCPA compliance is sketchy.

We rebuild with proper consent collection, opt-out handling, and documentation.
