    Example Strategies

    1. Acquire Supporters

    Make it easy for people to take action the moment they feel inspired. Whether it's at an event, in a video, or on social media, reduce friction so supporters can instantly donate, join your list, or learn more about your cause—all right from their phone.

    2. Engage Your Community

    Keep the conversation going. Use Rally's proven text templates to re-engage your email list, invite updates, and move people from passive followers to active supporters who feel connected to your mission year-round.

    3. Retain and Mobilize Donors

    Turn one-time givers into lifelong champions. Empower your supporters to share your messages and videos directly with their friends and family—helping your mission spread faster, with authentic, word-of-mouth impact.

    Why We Focus on Click Rates, Not Just Opens

    While SMS open rates can reach 90%+, they can be misleading—a message might be "opened" without being read or acted upon. That's why Rally Corp focuses on click rates as the true measure of campaign success. Clicks show real engagement and intent, directly correlating to donations, signups, and conversions. Our proven templates and best practices are designed to drive clicks, not just opens, ensuring every message moves supporters closer to taking action for your cause.

    Disclaimer: Your results may vary. We offer free office hours and workshops to help you get results, so please don't hesitate to reach out. We make tracking clicks, conversions, and replies easy, so together, we can optimize your campaigns.
