Send a new SMS message or WhatsApp template directly to existing users or leads.

There may be times when you need to reach out proactively to a specific customer, or communicate with a third party (like a vendor or supplier) for assistance.

2. Select the number you want to send the message from. As a default the message will be sent by you.

   From the Details panel, you can also select who the conversation should be assigned to after your message has been sent.

   
   

3. Type the user or lead phone number for the person to contact.

   

4. Compose your message.

   

   If WhatsApp was chosen as the delivery channel to start the conversation, select the WhatsApp template you want to send to the user or lead. Once selected, each of the fields that were configured when creating the template will be displayed.

   These fields are not editable.
