How Do I Add Contacts/Subscribers?
There are quite a few ways that a person can become subscribed to your text list; all of which require consent from the subscriber prior to adding them in. The following options are available in your SlickText account:
Text to Join - Your subscriber will text a TEXTWORD to your SlickText number. Upon doing so, the will receive your textword's auto reply, which and be customized in the Textword Settings.
Opt In Web Form - SlickText can generate opt in web forms in the Marketing Tools section of your account. These web forms allow subscribers to join your list from a website, tablet, social media, marketing email, or anywhere you can share a link. Web forms can also collect additional information that you request, such as: name, birthdate, email, or custom questions. Learn more by watching the web form tutorial video.
API/Integration - This opt in method is possible when you integrate SlickText with other web apps and external databases, like a CRM. You can refer to our API documentation to build a custom integration, use one of our native integrations like Shopify or Hubspot, or integrate SlickText with thousands of other apps using Zapier.
Manual Add - This opt in method allows you to add contacts one at a time. On the Contacts page, click on tools in the top right, then choose Add Contact.
Upload - This opt in method allows you to add contacts in bulk. On the Contacts page, click on tools in the top right, then choose Upload Contacts. You can then upload a CSV file of contacts, confirm that you've gathered the proper consent, then map the columns of your CSV to fields. Click here to learn more.
If you are not able to upload contacts, or have hit your contact import limit, call SlickText Support at 1-800-688-6290 or email them at support@slicktext.com.
