SMS marketing software
CampaignCNX+ is an SMS marketing platform for campaign managers and business owners who need to send compliant text messages to a list of voters, donors, customers, or volunteers. We handle the TCPA rules (the federal law on marketing texts), registration with the carriers (phone companies such as AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile), and two-way replies, so you can focus on the message instead of the technical setup.

The platform
One account includes three tools: SMS contact management, a four-step campaign composer, and reports that are easy to read without special training. You do not need to connect other software, buy a separate compliance add-on, or speak with a salesperson to turn on basic features.
01 | Contacts
Import a CSV, verify phone numbers, tag contacts by precinct or audience, and run them against the federal Do Not Call registry. Each contact record keeps its compliance status, such as whether the person has opted out, so the list stays accurate between sends.
02 | Campaigns
Choose SMS or MMS (a text with an image), pick the list, and write the message with merge fields, which fill in details such as each person's first name. Then review the recipient count and send. You see the total cost before you press the button, and the delivery rate, replies, and opt-outs update in real time after the campaign goes out.
03: Reports
Reports show delivery rate, reply rate, cost per campaign, and a ranked list of your best-performing sends, arranged the way a campaign manager or marketing director reviews a program. Export the full report to CSV for an end-of-campaign report or a quarterly review.
How to send a text campaign
You use the same four screens whether you are texting 200 precinct captains or 40,000 former customers. Every send has one recipient review, one send button, and a cost preview before any message goes out.
Pick the message type and see the credit cost per segment (a block of up to 160 characters) before you do anything else, so you know the budget before you write.
Choose a group, a tag, or a hand-picked set of contacts. When you send, we automatically remove anyone who has opted out and any number marked Do Not Call (DNC).
Write the message, using merge fields to personalize it. The composer counts characters and segments as you type, and it checks that the message includes STOP opt-out language before you can send.
Confirm the final recipient count, the total cost, and a preview of the message as one contact will see it. Send it now or schedule it for a future date and time.
Start sending
Open an account with a toll-free number and send your first text after carrier verification, which takes about three business days. The trial includes 100 free SMS credits, and your number costs $5 a month. A real person at our office handles your account setup, not a chatbot.
TCPA compliance
/01
Run any imported list against the federal Do Not Call registry during contact import. The lookup is available as an add-on so you only pay for the numbers you actually verify.
/02
The platform honors STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE and the other opt-out replies immediately across every campaign on the account and answers HELP automatically, so you don't have to manage opt-outs by hand.
/03
A toll-free number is the fastest way to start, because carrier verification takes about three business days. We submit your 10DLC registration (a local number registered with the carriers for business or campaign texting) at the same time, and you can send from the toll-free number while it is reviewed. We recommend 10DLC for any serious program because it gives messages the best long-term chance of reaching people's phones. We handle both registrations during setup.
/04
We apply quiet hours (times when marketing texts should not be sent) by each contact's own time zone, so a campaign scheduled in Eastern time will not reach a contact in Hawaii at 3 a.m.
Who uses CampaignCNX+
CampaignCNX+ uses the same software whether you are sending get-out-the-vote (GOTV) reminders for a congressional race or a flash sale for a regional retailer. The steps are the same, and only the audience, the message, and the time of day change.
Keep a voter file, a donor list, and a volunteer roster in one SMS account that is built around a campaign's calendar: identifying supporters, persuasion, GOTV, and fundraising before FEC reporting deadlines. See political SMS marketing →
Businesses get the same mass texting and two-way reply tools, set up for storefronts, service businesses, real estate teams, restaurants, and anyone who runs a loyalty program by text message. See business SMS marketing →
One SMS platform, two audiences
Whether you are sending precinct-level GOTV reminders or a flash sale to former retail customers, you use the same four-step campaign composer, with the same TCPA compliance checks built into every send.
The CNX Suite
CampaignCNX+ is the SMS marketing piece of a four-product suite. Alma is the website chatbot that answers visitor questions and qualifies leads. Beacon handles field operations such as door-knocking and canvasser check-in. CoreCNX is the CRM, a contact database that keeps each person's full history on one timeline. All four share one account, one bill, and the same support team.
AI Chatbot
Alma is an AI chatbot that runs 24/7 on your website. It qualifies leads, collects contact information, and passes real conversations to a person on your team.
Field Ops
Beacon runs door-to-door canvassing on any phone, with territories drawn on a map, walk lists (the addresses each canvasser visits), AI-coached door scripts, and real-time GPS tracking.
CRM
CoreCNX is the shared contact record for the whole suite. It shows every text reply, door knock, and chatbot lead on one timeline.
SMS Broadcast
CampaignCNX+ handles mass SMS, two-way replies, drip sequences (a series of texts sent on a schedule), and contact management. It is the product described on this page.
SMS marketing pricing
Start on pay-as-you-go and move to a monthly plan when your volume justifies it. Both use the same platform. There is no enterprise tier to negotiate and no separate price list for "premium" features.
There's no commitment or monthly plan fee, and credits never expire.
Start sending
The quickest start is a toll-free number. Open the account, purchase a verified phone number, import your contact list, and send your first text after carrier verification, which takes about three business days. Where reliable delivery over the long term matters, we recommend 10DLC carrier registration, which we submit at the same time. You can send from your toll-free number while the carriers review it, and we handle both registrations.
