In a Jamestown, New York, apartment back in 2012, it all began. Matt Baglia, one of our co-founders, was studying non-conventional marketing avenues for several other business owners while still a recent Fredonia State University graduate. As a result of frustration with the efficacy and reach of email and other social media platforms, text messaging emerged as a potent yet underused form of advertising.
After examining the SMS marketing environment, it became apparent that industry executives at the time were notably complacent. Matt viewed this as a fantastic chance to improve SlickText because of his experience in product management and marketing. We’ve worked very hard to become an industry leader, never compromising on usability, message quality, or customer service after servicing thousands of consumers.
In order to carry out his idea, Matt recruited the aid of co-founders Bobby Angilella and Ryan Kinal. Nine months later, the first version of SlickText was created. Since then, SlickText has expanded to support more than 70,000 users across six nations. Only the beginning lies ahead.

Lisa Thompson
I'm a skilled content writer who focuses on sophisticated marketing. I'm passionate about imparting my knowledge and skills in lead distribution, email and call monitoring, and other areas after more than ten years of experience. I often contribute to trade journals, and I'm constantly seeking for fresh approaches to support companies in thriving in the rapidly changing digital environment.
SlickText is easy to navigate and just about anyone can pick it up quickly. There are step-by-step tutorials for almost every feature they offer. The few times I’ve not been able to figure something out on my own, their customer service team has replied to my question within a few minutes via chat. I’ve been helped multiple times by Jill, who is always friendly and very helpful. I tested out a few other SMS companies, but SlickText beat out the competition thanks to their intuitive dashboard and stellar customer service.
SlickText’s lead management system has revolutionized our SMS marketing efforts. The platform offers a user-friendly interface, making it simple to create and send targeted SMS campaigns to our leads. The automation features, such as drip campaigns and keyword triggers, have significantly improved our engagement and conversions. The customer support team is responsive and knowledgeable, always ready to assist with any questions or issues. SlickText is a top-notch lead management solution for SMS marketing.
One area where SlickText’s lead management system could improve is in the reporting and analytics features. While it provides basic campaign performance metrics, more advanced analytics and in-depth reporting options would allow for better analysis and optimization of our SMS marketing efforts. Additionally, the pricing structure can be a bit restrictive for businesses with larger contact lists. Despite these minor drawbacks, SlickText remains a reliable choice for effective lead management through SMS.
