Give your organizers text messaging built into Broadstripes
Send a text or an email to any group of workers in your project. When workers reply, carry on one-on-one text conversations with them from your computer or your phone.

How texting works
You text workers from the same searches and lists you use to map the workplace and follow your leaders’ turf.
Choose the workers
Run a search or open a saved list: a shop, a department, or everyone assessed as undecided.
Write one message
Start from a saved template or write a new one. Merge fields fill in each worker’s name, department, or organizer. You can attach an image, and send now or schedule the text for later.
Send it
Broadstripes sends the text to each worker’s opted-in cell phone and shows you which messages were delivered. A worker who replies STOP is opted out automatically.
Talk one-on-one
Each reply starts a conversation between you and that worker, which you can carry on from your computer or your phone. Every text and reply is saved on the worker’s timeline.
When do I use Broadstripes for messaging?
“…in a situation when I want to immediately respond to something management has said.”
