INDUSTRY: TEXT MESSAGE MARKETING

JOB DESCRIPTION: SUMOTEXT, Inc. has several exciting opportunities for creative, energetic, and polished account relationship managers. You must be capable of working unsupervised while motivating clients and team members. We need someone who can hit the ground running with solid communication and relationship building skills. Recent college graduates and younger candidates with exceptional track records will be considered.

In particular, we are looking for a self-starter who wants to get in on the ground floor of a rapidly growing entrepreneurial environment. We will look particularly closely at candidates who possess enthusiasm, passion, ambition, and a cultural connection to their mobile device.

WHAT WE OFFER OUR CLIENTS: When someone opts-in to a mobile marketing campaign, our Client:

* Has identified someone very likely to buy, attend, or participate
* Has received their permission to send them text messages
* Can reach them instantly - anytime and anywhere - with a 95% read rate
* Can blast special offers and promotions to their entire list
* Can organize their list into groups to create targeted campaigns

BACKGROUND: Have you ever sent a Text Message to a Short Code - e.g. like 10 million people did to vote on American Idol? Did you know Americans sent over 30 billion text messages in the month of December alone - more than all of 2005? Did you know that mobile marketers are projected to spend $1 billion this year and over $16 billion in 2011?

ABOUT US: SUMOTEXT, Inc. (http://www.sumotext.com) (http://www.textmarketing.com) is an application service provider that enables any business to instantly launch product offers, promotions, and time-sensitive alerts into the mobile channel – a channel previously only accessible by the largest brands and media companies. At our website, we have a 4 minute video that shows you exactly how we do this.

By reserving and promoting identifiable keywords on one of our mobile short codes, our clients leverage our platform, carrier relationships, and campaign management tools to begin engaging their most valued customers on their mobile device. Campaigns can send text messages that contain basic product announcements and mobile coupons, or can engage audiences with interactive voting polls, contests, and links to mobile web sites.

No other channel (radio, TV, print, internet) can compete with the cost-effectiveness of text message marketing. The mobile channel offers what marketers have always dreamed of – the ability to reach just the right person, with just the right message, at just the right time.

APPLICANT REQUIREMENTS:

* Proactive, organized, and determined
* Creative, eloquent, enthusiastic, and outgoing
* Effective in evaluating customer needs
* Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
* Ability to motivate and lead others
* Dependable, honest, and trust-worthy
