What it's for
What it does
Marketing lets you text your own list and see what each text earned. Build the list, send a message, then check which texts got attention and which brought sales.
Ways to use it
- Announce an event to everyone who has joined your list.
- Let fans join by texting a keyword, then message just that group.
- Put a tracked link in a text and see how many people tapped it.
- Reply when fans text you back.
How the pieces fit
Find your way around
The Marketing sidebar groups the tools by what you are doing.
- Home and Your Plays: a short list of what is worth doing right now.
- Send: Campaigns, Quick Text, Experiments and Conversations.
- Promote: Spotlights and Short URLs.
- People: Contacts and Keywords.
- Results: Send History and Performance.
- Account: Contact Card, Manage Number and Purchase Credits.
Quick Text, Keywords and Contact Card need an active dedicated number. Without one, the page shows a locked panel that links to Manage Number.
See how the tools work together
Your Contact Card gives fans a name to save. Keywords bring fans onto your list. Contacts holds everyone. Quick Text and Campaigns send to them. Short URLs and Performance show what happened next.
Try it first
Send a test text to yourself
You can send a test text to your own phone to see how it lands, before you message your list.
Accounts that are already approved land on Campaigns instead of the start page.
