Sign up for Text Marketing

Sending Text Marketing messages to clients is a great way to market your business and keep them updated on what's going on at your store location or studio. You can specifically send the following types of text blasts:

Non-Automated Messages: Send one-time text marketing campaigns.
Automated Messages: Send recurring birthday, thank you, and follow-up marketing campaigns on a consistent schedule. You can also send messages to lost customers or clients who haven't visited your business in a while.

For information about Text Message plans, please see Text Message Plans.

When you first sign up for Text Marketing, the phone number provided will be subject to review by Twilio.

You can begin sending limited text messages up to 48 hours after signing up for Text Marketing.

2,000 text messages daily.
6,000 text messages weekly.

Note

These Pending limits are the maximums and are not guaranteed. Vagaro plan limits still apply.

For more information on the Verification process, see Twilio's guide for the review process.

The toll-free number verification requires a valid name and address on the account. Please ensure that the account owner's profile has a valid name, and the business profile has a valid address. A PO box is not considered a valid address.
