  <p class="font-sans-lg text-base"> Help your audience know what to do with the information you send.</p>

  <p>
    When writing a text, focus on the person who is going to receive the message and write it for them. Use plain
    language and provide easy to understand next steps.

        When deciding what types of messages to draft for your campaign, think through the following questions:
      </h4>
      <div class="usa-summary-box__text">
        <ul class="usa-list">
          <li>What do you want recipients to do when they receive the text?</li>
          <li>What will happen if a recipient doesn't take the action you want them to take?</li>
          <li>Will you send any follow-up texts depending on if the action was taken or not?</li>
        </ul>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <h2>Be clear and concise</h2>
  <ul>
    <li>Use simple, everyday language. Keep the text short and clear. Stay under 300 characters.</li>
    <li>
      Say only one important thing per message. Focus on the most essential instructions and information. If there are
      multiple actions you want someone to take, consider sending a series of well-timed messages.
    </li>
    <li>Use a neutral, direct, and professional tone. This works better than a friendly or overly casual tone.</li>
  </ul>
  <h2>Build conditions for action</h2>
  <ul class="usa-card-group flex-1 flex-wrap padding-top-2 best-practices-flex-container">
    <li class="flex-1 width-full height-full padding-bottom-2">
      <div class="usa-card__container border-0">
        <p>For example, getting a person to update their mailing address:</p>
        <ol class="best-practices-list">
          <li>Clearly state the information and the response you want the recipient to take.</li>
          <li>Point directly to where the action can be completed, not to more information.</li>
          <li>Make sure the action can be completed via mobile phone, like calling a person or going to a
            mobile-friendly URL.
          </li>
          <li>
            Include at least two options for a recipient to take action. Some recipients may be more comfortable talking
            directly
            to a person, while others may prefer a web-based experience.
          </li>
          <li>Consider clearly explaining any consequences if the desired action is not completed.</li>

  <h2>What provoking action looks like</h2>
  <p><a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10002044/" target="_blank">Evidence shows</a> that employing
    behavioral science is an effective way to increase the
    likelihood of a recipient
    taking action upon receiving your text. Keep in mind these three foundational principles while drafting your text
    message:</p>

  average of $113/month in money for food.",
