*Consumer survey data, not Hermes customer results. 72% of consumers say they read business texts within five minutes (EZ Texting, 2026 Consumer Texting Behavior Report, 959 US consumers). Separately, 82% say they check their texts generally within five minutes (SimpleTexting, 2025, survey of 1,000 US consumers). Those are two different questions and we keep them apart. SMS has no read receipt, so nobody can measure an open rate.
TEXT MARKETING MADE SIMPLE FOR
How It Works
Launch in 2 Weeks. Then You Own It.
Then $250/month or cancel. No contract. No marketing skills needed.
Personalized Strategy Call
We learn your business and handle the carrier paperwork so your texts actually get delivered. Our setup guides you through every field so your number gets approved fast.
We Build While Carriers Verify
While carriers approve your number (approx. 2 weeks), we import your list and write your first 3 messages. No wasted time.
Launch Day -> Send Your First Message
Once approved, your messages are ready. Preview, approve, send. Start seeing results fast.
You're In Control
After launch, you own it. Send new messages in 30 seconds using templates + AI help. We don't disappear. Support is always here.
We do the hard part once. You do the easy part forever. 30 seconds to send after launch.
Why This Works
Why Local Businesses Are Ditching Email & Ads
You've tried everything else. Email gets ignored. Ads burn cash. Slow nights keep happening. Texting is the only channel that actually brings customers back.
Email Marketing
Your promotions sit in a promotions tab
Facebook Ads
Unpredictable results, constant optimization
Word of Mouth
Can't control when customers come back
Text Marketing (We Launch, You Own)
We do the hard part once, you do the easy part forever
Investment: $250/month
The difference is simple: Email and ads hope customers see your message. A text lands in their pocket, and most people read one within five minutes according to consumer surveys. That's the whole difference.
Simple Pricing. Powerful Results.

WHY TEXT MARKETING WORKS
*Consumer surveys, not Hermes customer results. 72% say they read business texts within five minutes (EZ Texting, 2026 Consumer Texting Behavior Report, 959 US consumers). Separately, 82% say they check their texts generally within five minutes (SimpleTexting, 2025, survey of 1,000 US consumers). Surveys measure what people say they do. What you see depends on your list, your industry, and how you use it.
