In the age of instant communication, texting has become one of the most effective ways for businesses to engage with customers. But in industries like mortgage, insurance, auto, and real estate, it’s not just about sending one-to-one messages—it’s about reaching groups of customers with personalized, compliant, and trackable communication.
The Power of Group Texting
Unlike traditional 1:1 texting, Group Texting allows agents and businesses to send the same message to a group of recipients, allowing agents and businesses to send a high-volume message that appears as a private, 1:1 text to the recipient, keeping all relevant internal stakeholders (like the agent, processor, and realtor) informed on the thread.
Key Benefits:
- Efficiency at Scale – Save time and easily keep multiple folks informed.
- Consistency of Messaging – reduce lack of inconsistency or transparency, since all parties involved are included in the message conversation.
- Engagement Tracking – if inputs or responses are needed, you can track them instantly in a text thread.
