We’re thrilled to announce a powerful new update to the NationBuilder control panel: the ability to send MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) directly from your account. MMS allows you to go beyond plain text by attaching engaging visuals like images or GIFs. This feature will help you energize your campaigns, grab your audience’s attention, and foster deeper connections with your supporters.
The benefits of MMS messaging
When you’re rallying supporters or mobilizing a movement, impactful communication is essential. Here’s how MMS messaging can transform your outreach:
- Boost engagement: Messages with visuals to capture more attention and elicit stronger responses than text-only messages. With MMS, you can amplify your message, inspire action, and increase turnout for your initiatives.
- Create a better recipient experience: MMS lets you pair compelling text with visuals that drive your point home, ensuring your message is both memorable and easy to digest.
- Send longer text messages: In addition to MMS, we now support longer SMS, allowing you to include more detailed information when needed. This ensures you can communicate complex ideas or important updates without compromising clarity or impact.
Seamless and intuitive functionality
We’ve built the MMS feature to seamlessly support your efforts. Here’s what you’ll love:
- Simple to use: Upload images or multimedia content directly into your messages with just a few clicks.
- Effortless campaign management: MMS integrates smoothly with the tools you already use in the NationBuilder control panel. You can preview and send or schedule your messages with ease.
- Actionable insights: Use shortened links to track clicks for your blasts. See how your audience engages and fine-tune your strategy to maximize impact.
Transform your advocacy efforts
With MMS messaging, the possibilities are endless. Send a striking image to accompany a petition link, share a motivating photo to rally volunteers, or a heartfelt end-of-year GIF to express gratitude to your top supporters and build lasting connections. MMS empowers you to break through the noise and connect with your audience in a meaningful way.
