One, they can use their cell phone to text in your keyword to your short code or two, they can sign up online through a fill in the blank sign up form similar to the one you probably use for your email list.

The "mobile house list" will certainly be a powerful tool for marketers over the next decade. But I wanted to make you aware of a new company that DOES allow marketers to rent a permission-ready list of opted-in mobile phone users. It's called Sayso (www.saysomobile.com). Mobile phone owners opt-in to Sayso and are paid real money for receiving targeted text ads. And because everyone places a different value on their time and attention, Sayso subscribers set the price they're paid each time they get a message. Advertisers can then build a targeted list, set a maximum price they're willing to pay for each individual and send their message. Unlike using a "house list," Sayso allows marketers to find new customers (not just the loyal ones who opt-in) and they can get up and running to a large audience quickly. Drew Good stuff, Kim.

May I add that getting started in SMS is not an expensive process. Most companies can be up and running and live in less then 30 minutes for a few hundred dollars.... This is easy to test out, and one that won't break your marketing budget. Giff Great comments, Kim. May I add that getting started in SMS is not an expensive process.
