Text-Em-All, a mass messaging platform, delivers personalized, informational, and emergency alerts to large groups. Text-Em-All is an 18-year-old software-as-a-service (SaaS) company with 42 employees, proudly headquartered in Frisco, Texas. The company is also known as a quick way to get important messages or information to several people simultaneously.
Just last week, Text-Em-All announced they reached a significant milestone for their company, they are now 100% employee-owned! The innovative Perpetual Purpose Trust (PPT) model was a collaboration with Common Trust. Common Trust helps business owners exit to their employees and community, all while ensuring a seamless ownership transition. This collaboration will help Text-Em-All reach its goal of being a 100-year company and providing a secure future for their employees. As mentioned on their own website, they opted for this approach because they believe employee ownership represents capitalism at its best.
