Can I delete a blast campaign?

No, once a blast campaign has been sent, it cannot be deleted. However, you can delete a draft by clicking the three dots next to the draft and selecting Delete message.

Can clients reply to text message blast campaigns?

No, text message blast campaigns are no-reply messages, so you won't receive responses from clients.

How much does it cost to send a blast campaign?

The cost of your blast campaign depends on the number of emails and text messages sent, with text message costs varying by message length.

Why aren't my clients receiving my blast campaigns?

Due to recent changes in A2P 10DLC regulations in the US, mobile carriers may filter out your text message blast campaigns to prevent unwanted messages, fraud, or abuse. Here’s what you can do to improve the chances of your SMS campaigns being delivered: Include your business name** so clients recognize who the message is from. Be clear with your message’s goal** to avoid confusion. Provide an opt-out option** by adding something like “To opt-out, send STOP” at the end of your message. Avoid certain words** like ‘discount.’ Use alternatives like ‘offer’ instead. Limit links** to only what’s necessary. Don’t include phone numbers** in the body of your text. Do not promote cannabis or CBD products** via text, as their marketing and sale remain illegal under federal law, despite some states allowing it.
