You can add members to your account one at a time directly from the platform. This is useful for adding new members as they come in — after a phone call, a walk-in, or a one-off conversation.
Adding a member from the Inbox
The fastest way to add a single member:
- Click Inbox in the left-hand navigation.
- Click the pencil icon to the right of the members header to open the compose window.
- In the To: field, type
1followed by the member's mobile number. - Type and send a message.
The platform automatically creates a contact record for the phone number. You can then edit the contact's profile to add their name, email, and other details.
Adding a member from the members Section
For a more detailed approach:
- Navigate to Contacts in the left-hand navigation.
- Click Add member or the equivalent button.
- Enter the member's phone number, first name, last name, and any other available fields.
- Assign the member to a group if applicable.
- Save the member.
After Adding a member
Once a member is added, they appear in your All members group and any specific group you assigned them to. You can:
- Send them a message from the Inbox
- Include them in campaigns
- Edit their profile details at any time
- Add them to additional groups
Tips & Best Practices
- Always add the member's name when possible — personalized messages perform significantly better than messages addressed to a phone number.
- If you are adding a member who was previously on a different messaging platform, consider sending an introductory message letting them know about the new number.
- Use the Inbox method for quick additions when you are already in a conversation. Use the members section for more structured data entry.
