SMS (Short Message Service) sends text-only messages up to 160 characters. MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) can include images, videos, GIFs, and longer text. Drop Cowboy supports both.

The best methods are: (1) Add a signup form on your website, (2) Promote a keyword customers can text to join (e.g., 'Text JOIN to 555-123'), (3) Collect opt-ins at checkout or in-store, (4) Run social media promotions with SMS signup incentives. Always clearly state what type of messages they'll receive and how often.
