He set me up with a SMS short code that I started using to opt folks into my email list. Its quite simple. The first step is to text a keyword to a digit number. For my email optin that means texting WALDOW no quotes to . Then as can be seen above I automatically send a text back asking to reply with an email address. . Once the person replies with a valid email address I send one final SMS a thank you. The next step is the key and one that I see missed too often. I integrated this process with my email service provider Infusionsoft the same provider used by Duct Tape Marketing such that an automatic thank you welcome email is sent as soon as someone opts in.
Does it work It has been very effective so far for me. In the month of November of my total list growth came from this SMS option. To be clear I also presented at two live events and Mobile App Development Service gave one webinar in November.

However just because a certain list growth tactic works for one marketer does not mean it will work for you. As I advise all clients its critical that you test what works best for your audience.
