Spring is almost here and with it come an entire slew of warm-weather events, from outdoor concerts to high school and college graduations.

Your business or organization could benefit from an easy-to-use text messaging system. It's a great way to send alerts and notifications to subscribers, employees, and supporters.

Here are 10 ideas to get you started:

Spring Break Promotion - Use SMS to send out special spring break savings codes for your business.

Scheduling Reminders - Does your business or organization host an annual spring festival or fundraiser? Use Textify's group messaging feature to remind people of key dates.

Sports Events - If you have a sports team, group messaging is a fantastic way to keep coaching staff and players updated on game cancellations or practice changes due to inclimate weather.

Spring Cleaning - Launch a spring cleaning promo and host a collection drive for charity.

Mission Trips - Many church youth groups go on spring break mission trips. Use group messaging to communicate to the entire group, including chaperones and youth pastors.

Prom - Ministries take an interesting twist on traditional prom night and host a "tacky prom" event for youth that doubles as a fundraiser.

Movies on the Lawn - Spring is a great time to launch a movies on the lawn series for your ministry or organization. Use SMS group messaging to send out weekly updates.

Music Festivals - Live music venues are extremely popular in the spring. Use SMS messages to alert fans of ticket sale dates and meet the musician meetups.

Earth Day - Use text messaging to promote your Earth Day events and promotions.

Fun Runs and Triathlons - Spring season means a ramp up of fun runs, 5Ks and other organizing running events. Use our text messaging platform to alert registrants of key dates.
