Meet 17hats SMS Texting: Instant, Organized Client Conversations

We’re thrilled to unveil the newest addition to the 17hats platform — SMS Texting!

While email remains a cornerstone of client communication, today’s clients expect faster, more personal ways to connect. That’s where 17hats SMS Texting for US and Canadian members gives small businesses instant, professional communication that is seamlessly organized.

💬 Seamless, Smart, and Powerful

Built with the 17hats philosophy of depth, ease, and connection, this new feature allows you to manage every message without the chaos. Whether it’s an Online Scheduling reminder, Lead Capture Form response, or a quick send of a personal note, texting through 17hats ensures all conversations stay organized within your projects, reduces the hopping between apps, and keeps your personal text separate from your business messages.

⚙️ Fast, Compliant, and Easy to Set Up

Because you have complete control over your automated texts, compliance is key. To keep your business texting-ready, you’ll need to register your brand and campaign through The Campaign Registry, a process required by U.S. carriers.

But don’t worry — we’ve made it simple. Our developers worked tirelessly to create one of the fastest and easiest registration processes in the industry, taking less than five minutes to complete! All you need is your official EIN paperwork and your updated Privacy Policy and Terms of Service (which we have examples of).

📲 Texting That Works for You

With 17hats SMS Texting, your clients can easily opt in or out, ensuring trust and transparency at every step. You’ll have access to features like:

• Automated Lead Capture Form Responses
  
• Online Scheduling Texts — confirmations, cancellations, and two reminders
  
• Document Reminder Texts — including past-due invoice reminders with a link to complete payment
  
• Manual Texting — manually text contacts to keep conversations moving

The result? Happier clients, fewer missed appointments, and quicker payments — all from one place.

🚀 Get Started Today

SMS Texting includes a one-time setup fee of $40, which covers your registration with The Campaign Registry and our trusted partner, Bandwidth.

After approval, plans start at just $10 per month, including your dedicated local phone number and 100 text messages (fragments).

We couldn’t be more excited to see how our members use 17hats SMS Texting to transform their client communication. And this is just the beginning; we are excited to see how texting expands to other 17hats features.
