Marketing settings: Texts and missed calls

The marketing-text notes, missed-call text-back switch and contractor number boxes on the Marketing settings page.

On Settings → VisionScaper Marketing, the section Texts & missed calls (Twilio) switches on missed-call text-back and assigns a phone number to each contractor.

What the notes say

  • Marketing texts use the Twilio account saved in Settings → VisionScaper. They need their own A2P 10DLC campaign in Twilio (use case Marketing or Mixed); a Customer care campaign alone does not allow promotions.
  • Marketing texts go only to customers who gave written consent, name the business and honor STOP.
  • Delivery receipts are requested automatically.

Before you start

  • Twilio account connected. Buy one Twilio number per contractor and add it to your Messaging Service. Follow Twilio’s current instructions (get-twilio-details).
  • The page quotes about $1.15 per month per number as an example only.
