   * Call to action signs within your establishment. These can be placed anywhere from plasma screens, the front door, on tables and at point-of-sale registers. Ex: Text (your keyword is here) to 83930.
   * Include your opt-in message on all your promotional items such as event flyers, email campaigns, website, business cards, magazine, on your sales receipts and print ads.
