In this segment, the speaker advises painting business owners on how to implement SMS automation for prospect outreach. They explain that numerous text‑based applications allow mass texting by simply uploading a list of first names and phone numbers. However, carriers now enforce an A2P 10DLC requirement, which mandates a one‑time registration with the phone carriers before sending bulk messages. The registration process is brief, after which owners can send mass texts, provided they have prior customer permission—typically satisfied when messaging former clients. The speaker emphasizes the importance of compliance and consent before launching SMS campaigns.

there's many text-based apps that you can do mass texting. If you just Google, there's plenty out there that you can basically load up your list. You just need the first name and the phone number and you can get started. The one thing that you'll now have to face is the A2P requirement. There's like this new requirement by the phone carriers that require you to register with them. You just have to do it once. You just register with the phone carriers to send out mass text messages. But that A2P 10DLC requirement, it doesn't take too long to get through that. Once you do that, you can do mass text to folks. Assuming that you have permission to do that. Assuming these are prior customers, you probably do. So that's definitely a piece to look at.
