Text Notification Feature Launched on Casting Networks

We’re excited to announce that text message notifications, one of our most-requested features since the launch of the new Casting Networks platform, were released on September 1! Talent based in the United States and Puerto Rico can now opt in to receive text message notifications for Casting Networks auditions and callbacks in addition to receiving these notifications via email. Text notifications enable talent to see and respond to questions, media requests and audition requests from casting faster than ever before.

Here are some insights into text notification activity since its launch earlier this month:

• Over 15K talent have opted in to receive text message notifications
• An average of 1.5K text notifications are sent daily
• An average of 16K text notifications are sent weekly
• 57K text notifications have been sent since launch

If you represent talent based in the United States or Puerto Rico and want to ensure they will receive text message notifications, feel free to send them this Help Center article that includes step-by-step instructions on how to opt in.
