Create organized, grouped SMS contact lists with Tags

Categorize your contact list with Tags, which are internal labels. Tagging helps you stay organized, group contacts, and send targeted messages with ease.

What you can do with Tags

Segment your contacts lists

Tags group contacts internally. You can add multiple Tags to each contact and categorize by customer type, job title, and more.

Send mass texts to a group

After adding Tags, you can send mass text messages to everyone by Tag. This makes it easy to send targeted and relevant messages to the right audience.

Search Address Book by Tag

You can search your Address Book by Tag to help you see each contact with that particular label.

Search conversation list by Tag

You can search your Textline conversation list by Tag. This allows businesses to see messages to and from customers in a particular group. Your conversation list is similar to the texting app on your smartphone.

How to Tag contacts

To upload a list of contacts with Tags, add a “Tags” and “Tags Handling” column to the spreadsheet. The Tags column is where you insert the Tag, while the Tags Handling column tells Textline if you want to add, remove, or replace a Tag. You can add multiple tags, but a single Tag can’t have a space. For example, you’d need to write “new_customer” vs. “new customer.”

Send announcements based on tags, phone numbers, or use a CSV upload. You can also use the saved searches feature, which allows you to segment out your address book, save that search, and send out a text announcement.

Configure how much time a contact has to respond to your announcement and choose who is assigned to the Conversation when a contact replies.

Choose to send the announcement right away or schedule it for a later date.
