Who are you selling SMS Marketing to?

Who are you selling it to and what are they using it for?

I thought it would be a good idea so we can brainstorm with each other to help sell more services. I'll start:

I am just getting started in SMS marketing, but I will be targeting churches so they can communicate to their congregation, i.e. scriptures, links to the sermon they have posted online or on iTunes, youth group communications, etc.

Obvious answer -- restaurants.

To communicate with paying customers and offer then special deals when things in the restaurant are slow.

Churches are a great idea. I have two but be aware there are church packages sold to them that include texting, member database management, social media, etc, etc. So some of the large more tech savvy churches may already have something.

The advantage is some of these packages only allow theme to send messages to current members in the member database so your idea could be to use your service to reach the community.

Real Estate agents and loan brokers I think should be a good market. I am starting a campaign to target them and see what kind of response I get

And the second half of the question, how are the loan officers going to use it? I know how realtors would. Curious about loan officers.
