Some campaigns include a text messaging component. To use the text messaging feature in a campaign, ensure the following steps are completed:
Active Convos Account
- You must have an active Convos account connected to your Campaigns account.
- If you do not have a Convos account, you can learn more and sign up here: https://snappykraken.com/convos.
- Only contacts with a valid phone number will receive text messages.
- They will be created as contacts within Convos.
- If the contact has not opted in, your Convos settings will define if an opt-in message is sent before the campaign text step is sent.
Choosing a Campaign with Text Messaging
- Preview campaigns to find one that includes a text messaging step.
- Most "Visual Insights" campaigns contain a Text Message step.
Enabling and Personalizing the Text Message Step
- Select your desired campaign and personalize it as needed.
- Scroll to the Text Message step and enable it.
- Once enabled, you can edit the message.
- Tip: The default text often includes placeholders (e.g., First Name) or links to landing pages. Only modify this text if necessary.
Finalizing and Sending Your Campaign
- After enabling and customizing the Text Message step, ensure you have personalized the other campaign steps.
- Assign your subscribers and send the campaign.
