SlickText

Small business SMS marketing with rollover texts and a friendly editor, priced by a monthly text allowance.

SlickText is a marketing first texting tool aimed squarely at small business, and its rollover texts are a genuine perk: unused messages carry into the next month rather than vanishing. Plans are priced by a monthly text allowance, from 500 texts at the entry tier up to 100,000 at the top, with unlimited contacts, free incoming messages and picture messaging on every plan. The editor and list growth tools are easy to learn, and one on one onboarding kicks in at higher tiers. The limits: automation is lighter than the category leaders, there is no built in calling, carrier fees apply on top of the plan, and per message value only improves at the larger allowances.
