SMS Automation Best Practices for Local Business AI
SMS can produce fast responses when timing, clarity, and workflow design are done correctly.
Message architecture
Start with clear intent, one CTA, and short copy. Build follow-up branches for yes/no/needs-help paths.
Cadence and timing
Use context-aware send windows and avoid over-messaging. Monitor opt-out and response quality continuously.
System integration
Push every response into CRM, score engagement, and route priority conversations to a human owner.
