    Hello. I run a business and plan to make a database with customer phone numbers (of course, after giving written consent). Then I am looking for ways to send SMS messages, eg with promotions to these clients.
    QUESTION: Maybe one of the honorable forum members knows how it is easy, quick, painless to do, and of course at the cheapest cost. Maybe there are some programs, applications, etc.

    On most Android phones, you can create a group of contacts and send a message to the whole group.

    In every phone I have had, this option was "send to many etc."

    In my time in Lumi it was possible to make a picture from the phone on the computer to write with a keyboard and operate the mouse it would go very smoothly

    Also remember that you must have the operator's consent to send this type of SMS, unless the operator notices this once or twice, it will block you from sending sms the third time, because the regulations clearly say that no-limit packets can not be used for for commercial purposes.

    Nothing changes whether for a company or for a private person. Friends blocked text messages after the second series sent to about 150 people.

    I ask for pure curiosity, not once for Christmas or New Year's Eve, 50 SMS messages are sent at once :P

    If you send a text message with Merry Christmas, no one will question it, but as in the content you have a store offer and send it every week is a completely different pair of wellies.

    I do not know if I can find a reasonable free system on my own. I know that the Focus Telecom company has a special system with which you can send SMS (called SMSApi). I will not elaborate on the program, because I do not know all the details myself, but you can read more about it here: [address removed]
