Enable: SMS
-
Connect a provider like Twilio or MessageMedia

Set the Sender ID as your business name (not just a number)

Step 2: The ‘Forbidden’ Flow That Automates 97% of Texts
⚠️ Salesforce hides this—most users never set this up properly.
Manually sending text messages in Salesforce wastes hours. Instead, use a pre-built SMS automation flow to streamline your engagement.
Copy This Flow:
Trigger:
→ Lead Status = “Contacted”
Action:
→ Send SMS automatically:
“{First_Name}, your {Product} demo is ready. Reply YES to confirm. STOP to opt out.”
Add Einstein Send Time Optimization to send messages at the exact time your lead is most likely to respond.
This is the secret behind powerful bulk SMS messages in Salesforce. It also ensures your Salesforce mass texting campaigns work on autopilot, saving your team hours every week.
Step 3: The 11-Second Compliance Hack
😱 Missing one detail can cost $1,500 in fines.
SMS compliance is non-negotiable. Whether you’re doing Salesforce texting or integrating Pardot SMS, you must follow industry regulations.
What You MUST Include:
-
Business Address
“123 Main Street, NY” -
Opt-Out Instruction
“Reply STOP to unsubscribe” -
Carrier Disclaimer
“Msg & data rates may apply”
📝 Here’s a copy-paste SMS compliance template:
“{Message content}. {Company}, 123 Main St. Reply STOP to unsubscribe. Msg&data rates may apply.”
Adding these elements protects your brand and keeps your Salesforce SMS integration compliant with U.S. and global messaging laws.
