DreamFlow's SMS messaging lets you text your leads and contacts right from the platform. Conversations are threaded per contact, synced in real time, and logged to the CRM record — so your team always has full context.
Sending an SMS
- Navigate to Communicate > SMS in the sidebar.
- Click New Message or select an existing conversation.
- If starting a new message, search for a contact by name or enter a phone number.
- Type your message in the text field at the bottom. Messages are limited to 160 characters per segment (longer messages are sent as multi-part SMS).
- Click Send.
Viewing Conversations
The SMS inbox shows all conversations in a familiar messaging layout. Click any conversation to see the full history with timestamps and delivery status for each message.
Opt-Out Handling
DreamFlow automatically processes opt-out keywords. When a contact replies with "STOP", "UNSUBSCRIBE", or "CANCEL", they are flagged as opted out and will not receive further SMS messages from your account. This is required for SMS compliance.
Important
Always obtain consent before sending marketing SMS messages. DreamFlow enforces opt-out compliance automatically, but you are responsible for ensuring initial consent.
Tip
Use SMS templates for quick replies to common questions. Access them from the Templates button in the message composer.
