Chicago – Spark Network Services is pleased to announce the signing of Bonneville Phoenix radio stations to its PromoTXTRadio services. Bonneville Phoenix stations that will initially use PromoTXT text message services include KTAR, KPKX , and KKFR.

“We are honored that Bonneville Phoenix has chosen our PromoTXTRadio system over others in the marketplace,” added Bob Bentz, co-owner of Spark Network Services. “It is great to see progressive radio stations all over the country embracing text messaging to reach its on-the-go audience.”
