3. Point your browser to any of the links listed under 'Resources' and perform a reverse phone lookup using the number. Although it's not guaranteed that the number will pull any results -- mobile numbers are sometimes automatically 'unlisted' -- doing so will take you only a few moments and it's possible you could get a match.
4. Use the 10-digit mobile number as a search term on Bing, Google or Yahoo! If the person who owns the number has published it anywhere online, whether in conjunction with a business she owns or simply as a means of contacting her, a search for it will pull up these records, revealing her identity to you.

Setting Up an SMS Service
1. Obtaining a short code is a critical step to setting up an SMS service. Go to the Common Short Code Administration website, click on 'Obtain a Code' and follow the detailed instructions. This process, including waiting time, will take you 6 weeks to 12 weeks or more from start to finish.
2. Build an SMS gateway, a software program that interfaces with the short code and the cell phone carriers. This will be your back-end software platform. If you don't have the computer programming skills to accomplish this, hire someone with these skills to do the work for you.
3. Determine your target market and create a comprehensive marketing plan to reach these businesses who will be your customers. Business-to-consumer businesses are typically the best type to utilize SMS marketing.
4. Begin doing face-to-face selling to get businesses signed up for text messaging services. The end users, who are their customers, are the people who will actually receive the SMS messages.
