In 2011 James Pelton, an entrepreneur and web developer based in Lincoln, Nebraska, saw a need for SMS marketing solutions for small businesses. Many organizations and businesses were still using ineffective, inefficient phone calls and emails as their primary methods of communication. While still working a day job, he developed the software for Mobile Text Alerts and built the company from the ground up. What started off as a dream from a young college student grew into a full-fledged business. He established a customer base, built a team, quit his day job, and the rest is history. A streamlined and easy-to-use solution, Mobile Text Alerts is leveraged by organizations like Ghiradelli, Steak ‘n Shake, and Kingston Sanders to drive more engaging customer interactions.

While still a young company, Mobile Text Alerts has not wasted any time taking its slice of the massive SMS marketing industry. In 2019, the company was recognized as the 399th fastest growing company in America. Further, the company has doubled revenue since inception and achieved an astonishing 3-year growth rate of 1,144%. This performance positioned Mobile Text Alerts as the second fastest growing company in Nebraska.
