| Scoreboard Manager: Manage wine, beer, and spirits, olive oil, that you want to list in your scoreboard for your customers to rate from your dashboard. Track and download emails generated from your scoreboard offers to build your mailing list. |
Message Forwarding: Every ANNCO customer has the ability to be notified via text message or email when a contact opts in to their SMS campaign. Messages will also be stored in the inbox in the control panel. | |
| Message Templates: Store unlimited text message templates and load them when sending a text message to your subscribers! This is great for appointment reminders. |
MMS Messaging: This can be enabled on a paid account – send pictures or media files. This uses 3 credits per contact to send. | |
| Web Widget Generator: Our widget tool can be designed to fit your website’s specs, theme, and style. Generate the code within the control panel and insert the code into your webpage. Customers can then type their phone number into the widget and opt-in from your website! |
Dynamic Date Feature: Enter a unique expiration date on each text, based on the number of days after the message is received. Example: Customer texts Pizza to your number to get a free appetizer. They receive the response of, “Enjoy a free appetizer at The Pizza Shoppe! Redeem by 01/01/19”. The date will change based on the number of days you have set and the date they opt-in | |

| Multiple Users: Use the sub-user feature to create multiple admin logins. Each admin will have a unique email address to log in and can be assigned to one or multiple keywords on the account. You can also limit billing functions to prevent any unauthorized purchases on the account. |
Flyer Builder: Use the flyer builder to create a quick, professional image that you can mail out, display in your store, upload to social media, etc. The flyer will invite people to opt-in to your text campaign by texting your unique keyword to the number. | |

| Auto Responder: When a customer opts into your campaign, they will instantly be sent back an auto-reply message. This auto-response can be changed at any time to include a welcome message, coupon, or offer |
Alternate Message: If a customer tries to re-opt into the service after having already been opted-in, an alternate message can be sent to them in place of the default auto-responder. This prevents duplicate coupon use. | |
| Age Verification: This feature requires the contact to enter their birth date before they can opt-in to a keyword. Great for age-restricted products and services. Alcohol-related businesses like wineries, breweries, distilleries, bars-taverns-night clubs it's a must. |
2-Way Messaging: Respond directly to your customers one-on-one from your inbox. Replies from a message sent to a group are not seen by anyone in the group, they come in as an individual message to your Inbox. See the entire message thread for that number in a user-friendly cell phone-like interface. | |
| Drip Messages: In addition to the default auto-responder sent on the first opt-in, a series of drip messages can be scheduled to be sent at specified intervals from when the subscriber opted-in such as 5 days after the initial opt-in. |
Text Message Scheduler: Our unique scheduler allows you to schedule your campaigns to go out daily, weekly or monthly to save you time. | |
| Text 2 Win: One of the quickest ways to gain opt-ins, text 2 Win helps motivate customers to join your sms marketing campaign. Simply set up a campaign to entice customers to Opt in for a chance to win something. |
Random Select Winner: If you've set up a Text 2 Win campaign you can use this feature to randomly select a number of subscribers from your contacts to deem as winners and send a winning text message to them! | |
| Text 2 Vote: Set up a voting campaign where subscribers can text in to cast a vote! Our support staff can help you set this up! |
Text 4 Info: Text 4 Info is a limited account option where opt-ins will only receive the auto-responder message but not be opted in to receive future sms messages. | |

Review From Our Users
Excellent!
“With hundreds of regulars and the explosive growth we have experienced, we rely heavily on ANNCO for group messaging. ANNCO services are MUCH easier to use than we could have ever expected, at the cheapest rate out on the market! We are fans of ANNCO, and recommend it for all bars, taverns, and clubs! We love ANNCO!
Jean Doe, — Bar Manager
Awesome functionality!
“We recently opened a new location and started using ANNCO, it is a great tool, and a quick way to build customer traffic. We started sending bulk sms to our customers from our other locations about specials and planed events at our new location. The ANNCO interface is easy and simple to use. I highly recommend ANNCO, it's made my job much easier.
Johan Smith, — Brewery Manager
Super easy to use!
“I love using the ANNCO tools box because the control panel is easy to navigate and setting up my wine scoreboard was quick and easy! Not to mention the added feature that help me promote special offers, our wedding and event center. We use text 2 win as an excitement builder during a wedding event. I’d recommend ANNCO services to every winery, brewery, bar, restaurant, that wants to move the needle!
I give ANNCO 2 Thumbs Up
