Sending text messages to long distance numbers

I'm going to be sending out a text blasts to two different area coded- one of which is considered long distance.  Do I need to add a "1" before the area code for the long distance numbers?

When you are adding phone numbers to a profile for text blasts, you shouldn't put the one in front of the phone number. 

If you want to learn more about text blasts, read the FAQ on test messaging at:

(That FAQ also points to a how-to video on text blasts.)
