A hash file is an encrypted version of your existing email/mobile phone list. You can use a hash file to suppress your current list when acquiring data from us while maintaining complete confidentiality of your list contents. Sending a hash file means you’ll receive some NTL (New-to-list) leads and still get the number of targets you expected.

Typically, data enrichment is needed when a list of leads or targets is missing key information, such as email addresses or mobile numbers. Also known as “Append Services,” this can help with poor list performance or when reactivating an existing audience.

Sterling believes that quality products should be accessible to all, and Texting List Rentals is one of those ways. With P2P texting, you can quickly and efficiently acquire opt-in donors while raising money upfront. Plus, nearly all text messages reach donors, unlike emails.

You provide the text message copy + media, and we do the rest. No other method raises more money more quickly and with greater reach than peer-to-peer texting.

1. Set the Budget. We work with you to set a cost-effective budget and schedule for the texting list rental. 
2. Toll-Free Verification. We register a toll-free number for you.
3. Share Final Content. You provide an approved copy and a graphic or GIF for the MMS send. 
4. Send. With your approval, our peer-to-peer team sends out your text messages. 
5. Monitor Returns. Over 48 hours, our team tracks how much the texting campaign raises.
