Targeted SMS Blasts

Overview

A targeted SMS blast allows you to send a "mass" email to members or contacts based on criteria. This could mean sending to all members/contact, or only members/contacts matching specific criteria.

Sending a Targeted Blast

• To create a targeted blast, begin by clicking on "Connect > SMS > Targeted Blast".
• Select whether you wish to send the SMS message to "Members" or "Contacts".

• After establishing your criteria, the "Send SMS" display will appear:

• Type your desired SMS message into the text box. Note that SMS messages are limited to 160 characters.
• Note that you can use all fields as caller tags within the scope you are sending to within the text message's body.
