iWorQ is known for its leadership in citizen engagement software with its effective web-based work management solutions. iWorQ has helped thousands of government agencies streamline their workflow processes. Now, iWorQ has taken things to the next level. Because texting is the most used and preferred form of communication, iWorQ has teamed up with TextMyGov to enhance citizen to city communication by expanding its reach with SMS text messaging.
TextMyGov is smart texting technology which enables anyone to interact with their local government agency via text messaging. TextMyGov uses a mobile phone’s regular messaging service to relay information to a city or county. Citizens can now get answers to questions, report issues, find links on the agency’s website, upload photos, and more. All through text messaging.
Local governments spend thousands of dollars on their websites each year to provide resources for their citizens. Integrating TextMyGov's smart texting technology maximizes these resources; boosting citizen engagement and website traffic exponentially. Citizens can text keywords to receive information from the agency's public site.
TextMyGov's smart texting technology is self-sufficient and operates 24/7. It enables citizens to connect any time, day or night. The service assures project efficiency, with quick problem resolution and fewer calls.
The partnership with TextMyGov is exciting, and the technology will be a huge benefit to cities and counties across the US and Canada. TextMyGov will change the way citizens communicate with local government agencies. Using TextMyGov’s smart technology, citizens can communicate and get answers and information any time of day with a simple text.
