    After-Hours Message

    As much as we would like to service our customers 24 hours a day, we all need to sleep.

    Message Pause

    There will be times during the course of the work day that you will be unable to immediately respond to new customer messages.

    In those cases, you can set the “Pause” feature to manage your incoming messages and automatically send Users a custom “Unavailable” message. Your custom message let’s users know you have received their message and you intend to reply back soon.

    Number Cloaking

    Reasons we can’t text most businesses include business owners do not want to give out their personal phone number or carry two different phones.

    MobileCONNECT keeps your personal phone number private. When you send customers a text message it is processed through our system and delivered from a phone number in our pool. When the User responds, our system keeps track and relays the message back to you.

    This allows you to receive and send messages without revealing your personal number

    No Cross-Talk

    No Cross-talk prevents Subscribers from seeing replies from other Subscribers.

    When sending out broadcast messages, each message is individually sent to each Subscriber.

    Unlike standard group messaging, this insures when recipients reply only you will receive a copy of their response.
