The objective was to get voters to vote "yes" for a new library by targeting registered voters in Yellowstone County, Montana with an SMS message on Election Day. As a result, over 17,000 people voted in favor of the bond issue, which passed with a margin of 56.88% to 43.12%. The high voter turnout of over 31,000 ballots cast was considered successful for an off-election year issue. The SMS text outreach was believed to have contributed to the initiative passing, unlike a previous failed attempt 14 years prior.

OBJECTIVE: We worked with Faith & Freedom Coalition during the month of
May & June sending messages out targeting Wisconsin Republican Christians
& Republican Registered Voters across the state, especially in rural and
exurban areas across the state. We reached over 327,143 Wisconsin
Republican Christians voters by Email and SMS …
We also sent out 3x campaigns targeting Business Executives 64,258
executives in the entire state promoting the Wisconsin Faith & Freedom
Coalition message. We also used Mobile banners ads within our Mobile News
Network in Wisconsin, over 1 million Impressions reminding voters to vote.
Our text messages were focused on comparing the Governor candidates vote
for Faith & Freedom and other text message was driving people to the polls
to vote.
RESULTS
Scott Walker Wins!
The first governor in U.S. history to survive a recall election and the first
governor to have been elected twice in one term. Surviving recall elections
on Tuesday were the state's Republican lieutenant governor, Rebecca
Kleefisch, and three Republican state senators.
If Walker had received the same number of votes that he did in 2010, he would have lost
the recall. Barrett increased his 2010 haul by 158,000 votes, but Walker gained an additional
206,000. He couldn’t have hoped for a more decisive victory. We believe our Interactive
Marketing Services with SMS, B2B, Mobile Banners, and Emails targeting Republican
Christians had a major part in the win, not to mention boots on the ground in the last few
weeks.

4. Using SMS & Mobile Banner Advertising – Case Study
OBJECTIVE: The Wisconsin Faith and Freedom Coalition hosted a Presidential
Kick-Off featuring speakers Gov. Mitt Romney, Speaker Newt Gingrich and Sen.
Rick Santorum on Saturday, March 31st in Waukesha at the Country Springs
Hotel. We had less than one week to promote this event, we targeted 12,544
Republican Christians within several miles of the event, with (2) SMS text
messages and ran over 100,000 Mobile Banner ads promoting the event on local
TV Stations using our channel partner Mobile platform technology.
RESULTS
• The event was a sell-out and standing room only.
Few things we took away from this campaign, the quick
turn-around time you can provide with SMS verse mailing
post cards, the open rates are much higher with SMS, and
it’s more cost effective sending SMS over postal. Combining
both SMS & Mobile Banner Advertising was a huge success.
They work extremely well together.

also sent text messages to this group to remind Republicans to vote on
Tuesday… The results;
RESULTS
GOP Retains Senate Control
Republicans retained majority control of the Wisconsin Senate in a recall
election that was spurred by Republican Gov. Scott Walker's agenda of
cutting unionized state workers' rights. The recalls drew more than $30
million in campaign spending, fueled by millions of dollars from national
labor groups, a coalition of national unions spent millions on attack ads
and other campaign activity to wrest seats from the Republicans.
Many factors played a role in these elections, Mobile Sports Group was selected to
deliver an SMS “PUSH” Vote Message the day before the election… MSG in baseball
terms, SMS was the closer. When you have 95% of all text messages being open and
read within (15) minutes, you can deliver your message to get out an vote… Thanks
