What this gets you
- A dedicated number for candidate texts, separate from your personal phone.
- SMS steps in your sequences, and SMS replies in the Inbox.
- A registered US campaign, so carriers deliver your messages.
Steps
- Open More > Quick add > Phone sender.
- Choose the Country and the Number type, such as mobile or toll-free.
- Pick a number from the list. Each one shows whether it supports SMS and voice.
- Confirm the purchase.
- For a US number, complete the A2P 10DLC registration: your business details, the campaign use case, sample messages, your opt-in and opt-out messages, and links to your privacy policy and terms.
- Once approved, add an SMS step to a sequence, or reply to texts in the Inbox.
Tips
- US registration is handled through The Campaign Registry, and carriers charge a registration fee.
- Manage your numbers and their limits under Phone numbers on the sending accounts dashboard.
Ideas to get more from it
- Use SMS as a follow-up step for candidates who haven’t opened your emails.
- Send interview reminders by text a day before the meeting.
