Text Messages (SMS) for Slack
Send and receive text messages in Slack with Heymarket. Now you can route customers’ incoming text messages to the Slack channel of your choice and respond in Slack. Heymarket gives you the power to run customer support, sales, operations and more using Slack SMS.
Read and Reply to SMS in Slack
Send texts to customers from within a Slack channel. When they respond, you can read and reply to their message in the channel feed to send SMS from Slack. Or, move the conversation to a private thread to keep your Slack channel organized.
Keep Your Team Focused
Using Heymarket’s Slack SMS integration, you can keep all your customer conversations in easily searchable threads. Choose which channels you’d like to SMS enable and which team members should text with customers. When a conversation kicks off and sends SMS to Slack, you can easily assign that interaction to the right team member. Heymarket makes team collaboration on customer messages in Slack seamless and centralized.
Respond to People Outside of Your Team
Leads, customers, and partners no longer need to join your Slack workspace to reach you there. Heymarket empowers them to text your existing business phone number or new designated phone number. They can also message in through popular messaging services, like Facebook Messenger. Your team will see the incoming messages in your Slack channel and reply from there.
SMS as a Slack Command
With Slack, send text message conversations with a simple slash command. Using the /heymarket command, you can kick off chats with customers and search through previous conversations—all without having to leave Slack.
Bring Your Phone Number and Messaging Channels
It’s simple to text from Slack using Heymarket. You can bring your own phone number, text enable your landline, or we’ll get you a new number. You can even connect your company’s other messaging channels—including Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Apple Business Chat and Google’s Business Messages—and route those conversations to Slack, too.
Connect with Many Contacts at Once
Use Heymarket’s list function to send a single message to a list of leads or customers. Rely on these one-to-many texts to reach out to multiple leads or customers in a click. Answer any replies individually to keep chats confidential.
Track Success with Enterprise-Grade Reports
Review in-platform messaging reports to track team performance. See how your team’s response and resolution times get faster over time. Watch the number of resolved chats rise. Make changes and track improvements.
