Close more deals with automated next steps

Move deals forward with timely, automated outreach. When a prospect is ready to meet, a Scheduling Agent offers open times and books the meeting on your calendar. Use templates and custom fields to send reminders before meetings and follow up instantly after a meeting or demo. Then, track responses and refine your engagement strategy to help close more deals with less friction.

Gain full visibility across your sales team

Eliminate confusion and missed opportunities with full visibility across all communication. Track and manage cross-channel conversations across shared inboxes, assign messages to the right team members, and monitor engagement in real time. Let prospects move between text and email without starting over so handoffs stay clean, and reps pick up deals with the full history in front of them.

Write and respond faster

The conversations that reach a rep need your judgment, not a message written from scratch. AI-assisted texting and emailing drafts a response in your brand voice that a rep can shape into the right reply. Conversation summaries give them the full picture of where a deal stands before they answer, and sentiment analysis shows how a prospect has been responding so a rep can tell when a thread calls for a change in approach.

SMS sales examples:
How top sales teams close more deals

Sales teams use SMS alongside email and other channels to connect with prospects faster, automate follow-ups, and keep deals moving. Here are practical ways businesses use texting to increase engagement, improve response times, and close more deals.

Answer questions instantly

Quickly respond to prospect inquiries and provide the information they need to move forward. With a Q&A Agent answering common questions from your approved knowledge base, no lead is left waiting — even outside business hours.

Do your premium plans include onboarding support?
Yes! Our premium plans come with a dedicated onboarding specialist and one-on-one training sessions. Let me know if you’d like to schedule a demo.

Qualify leads as they text

Details come out naturally in a text thread. The Lead Enrichment Agent captures them as they land, then syncs company, intent, timeline, and other info to your CRM so a rep picks up a qualified record instead of a name and a number.

We're a 40-person agency and want to switch off Adobe before Q3.
Captured to CRM: company size (40), timeline (before Q3), switching intent (Adobe)

Send timely, personalized follow-ups

Stay top-of-mind by automating check-ins and follow-ups after key prospect interactions. Keep the conversation going and nurture interest with specific details and personalization with custom fields.

Hi {{Name}}, thanks for attending today’s webinar! Let me know if you have any questions. Here’s a quick recap of what we covered: {{Link}}.
Thanks! I’ll check it out. What’s the next step if I’m interested?
We can set up a free consultation to go over your specific needs. Does Tuesday work for you?

Handle objections in real time

Address concerns quickly and keep deals moving forward by answering objections as they arise. The Q&A Agent can answer automatically, or an AI Assistant can help draft a response in your brand voice so a rep can shape the right reply and send it while the concern is still fresh.

I’m not sure if this fits our budget right now.
I understand! We offer flexible pricing options based on your team size. I’d be happy to walk you through a plan that works for you.

Automate prospect engagement, even after hours

Ensure every lead gets a real answer, even when your team is offline. A Q&A Agent replies from your approved knowledge base and brings in a rep when the conversation needs one.

I’m interested in learning more about your product.
"Happy to help. Which part of your workflow are you looking to solve for? – AI-generated response
Mostly scheduling. We're doing it manually right now and it's eating up our week.
That's one of the most common reasons teams start looking. Here's a breakdown of how automated scheduling works and what it typically replaces: {{Link}} – AI-generated response

Send appointment reminders

Reduce no-shows by confirming and reminding prospects about scheduled calls or demos.

Hi {{Name}}, just a reminder about our call scheduled for {{Date/Time}} to discuss how {{Product/Service}} can help your team. Reply ‘C’ to confirm or let me know if we need to reschedule.
Confirmed! Thanks for the reminder.

Simplify the sales handoff

Ensure a smooth transition from marketing to sales or from sales to customer success with automated introductions.

Hi {{Name}}, I’m introducing you to {{Agent}}, your sales specialist. They will help you find the right plan. {{Agent}}, meet {{Prospect’s Name}}—they’re ready to get started.
Hi {{Name}}, great to meet you! I can see you’re interested in {{Service}}}. I’d love to set up a quick call to learn more. Does tomorrow work for you? - Alex

All you need to get started is a business text messaging service. It will help you text-enable your existing number or get a new one, and connect that to your shared inboxes. Then, you can text with anyone who texts in or has opted into your sales texts. To increase list subscribers, publish your SMS number on your website with a “text with sales” link. In addition, include your texting number in your email signatures and on your business card.

Create positive experiences with your prospects by chatting in a casual but polite tone and personalizing messages with custom fields. This chat-focused strategy is called conversational messaging. It cultivates longer-lasting prospect relationships—and more conversions.
