a digital consent manager comprising at least a first plurality of programming instructions stored in the at least one memory of, and operating on at least one processor of, the computer system, wherein the first plurality of programming instructions, when operating on the at least one processor, cause the computer system to:
receive a customer records list comprising a plurality of customer records without prior express written consent, where each record comprises a corresponding phone number and parameters specific to the phone number;
parse a customer record to identify a parameter that indicates a digital channel associated with a customer;
establish a connection with the customer mobile device via the identified digital channel;
generate and send a message to the customer mobile device via the identified digital channel, wherein the message comprises a request for customer consent;
receive a response to the message from the customer mobile device, wherein the response comprises an indication of consent and a campaign type; and

send the response to the message to the digital consent manager, wherein the response comprises the indication of consent; and
a campaign manager console comprising at least a second plurality of programming instructions stored in the at least one memory of, and operating on at least one processor of, the computer system, wherein the second plurality of programming instructions, when operating on the at least one processor, cause the computer system to:
select and deliver a prior express written consent record to an auto-dialer; and
an auto-dialer comprising at least a third plurality of programming instructions stored in the at least one memory of, and operating on at least one processor of, the computer system, wherein the third plurality of programming instructions, when operating on the at least one processor, cause the computer system to:
automatically dial a corresponding customer phone number of a received prior express written consent customer record; and
