Multimedia (MMS) P2P Text Alerts
What is Branded P2P MMS Text Messaging?
Modern telecoms has been unfortunately defined by rampant SPAM messaging. We help clients stand out from the spammers and scammers by creating authentic branded messaging using P2P MMS Text Alerts.
Multimedia (MMS) Peer-to-Peer Text Alerts combine the simple text element of SMS Text Alerts with dynamic media like images, gifs and short audio clips. Starting with an MMS banner image is the best way to make your text look authentic and legitimate. P2P MMS texts do not have the character limit of simple SMS texts, so your messaging also stands out simply by being more complete.
MMS text messages can include full native links along with detailed information or clear instructions for text recipients. Using native links instead of short URLs generated from untrustworthy sources like bit.ly will help further legitimize your messaging and drive more traffic to featured web pages.
Event Opt-In Text Alert Sample (MMS+MMS)
TTHM has economized our MMS Text Alerts so that clients can send a complete message with a branded image and extensive written copy at an affordable rate.
Single-MMS Text Alert = $0.10/txt*
*One attached jpg/png/gif/mp3/mp4/txt file.
Your text message is delivered as a P2P .txt file.
Double-MMS Text Alert = $0.10/txt**
**Two attached jpg/png/gif/mp3/mp4/txt files.
Your text message is delivered as a P2P .txt file.
Using Multimedia Text Alert technology, TTHM can quickly send tens of thousands of scripted text messages to your target audience.
Our team manages replies to the initial text to ensure a complete conversation. TTHM works with each client to customize the Initial Message and Reply Scripts to achieve specific outreach goals. We can then provide reports that detail each message sent, whether it was received, any responses returned by text recipients, and a list of those who asked to be placed on a Do Not Contact list.
We believe strongly that any job worth doing is worth doing right. TTHM always includes opt-out language to ensure that we are TCPA-compliant. We also work with mobile carriers to ensure that we abide by both stringent regulations and carrier preferences so that our messages are trusted by receiving carriers. We embrace full compliance with relevant regulations to maximize delivery of your Peer-to-Peer text messages.

Why Choose MMS Over SMS?
A picture is worth a thousand words. A 160-character SMS text message is worth about 26.7 words. But an MMS text message with an image, website links and no character limit is worth your phone’s weight in gold.
MMS texts let you deliver complete messaging in an attractive format. File types such as images (jpg/png), slideshows (gif), audio clips (mp3), and videos (mp4) can be included, as long as the total file size is under 500KB.
Multimedia Text Alerts have the highest read and response rates of any digital outreach. The delivered text message leaves a legacy on each recipient phone with your branding and your messaging.
Use a branded header image or lead with an amusing or emotionally-charged meme. Starting with a visual component increases engagement, reaction and response to your messaging.
Including one or more web links ensures that your outbound text is not the end of the conversation. Reply Scripts allow TTHM Operators to continue each text conversation to its natural conclusion, and reports show which conversations may require additional followup.

Did you know the average person checks their phone 150 times a day?
That probably includes you too! But don’t worry, this is good news for outreach.
150 times a day means you have 150 chances to capture your target audience’s attention. Multimedia Text Alerts appear as notifications on smartphones, so there’s no need to wait for your audience to check their mailbox/email or log on to social media. Recipients can see your message instantly. The more engaging your text is, the more likely you are to get the response you want.
Multimedia Text Alerts like the examples above also have a 98.5% open rate, which means your message gets through reliably. Better yet, we work to be compliant with both federal law and the preferences of mobile service providers.
Since the beginning of 2020, TTHM company policy has been to include opt-out language in every text we send. It legitimizes our clients’ messages for both mobile providers and text recipients. We will always stay ahead of the curve on compliance to make sure your messages don’t end up as SPAM.
