Is it possible to personalise the text messages that we send from email?
Yes, you can personalise the one-to-one messages that you send, simply by writing custom text in the email that will be converted into SMS. However, it’s not possible to personalise bulk messages from your email inbox as it doesn’t support Merge Send.
If you need to personalise your bulk SMS using fields like name, appointment time, or something else, you can do that from MXT, our easy-to-use SMS sending platform. In addition to bulk personalisation, you can also use MXT to set up SMS automations and integrate SMS with your important systems, such as your CRM.
