Message Creation

Sending an SMS message to your contacts gives them instant access to your news, specials, and sales. With a read rate of 94%, SMS brings your message directly to your audience.

SMS messages are created through typing your message into the MailHarbor SMS field. Text messages contain a 150 character limit, so carefully plan your message to make sure it is brief but effective. Once your message is complete, MailHarbor will take care of the delivery.

Using Your Contact List

Once you've created your SMS campaign, you'll be ready to select the contacts that will be sent your message.

Contacts in MailHarbor are separated into groups of the users' liking. You have the ability to browse through your groups and select those that should receive a particular marketing campaign.

In MailHarbor's Enterprise version, users are given the opportunity to select from dozens of different filters in MailHarbor. Since MailHarbor records data from every aspect of a campaign, users have the ability to select contacts based on targeted criteria such as geography, previous campaign history, and previous campaign activity.

These features allow users to target and segment their campaigns to receive optimal delivery and optimal response.
