How contacts enter the marketing list
- Transactional Opt-In: Contacts created through website intake, phone estimates, or quotes are marked with status = opted_in.
- Immediate Compliance: If a customer replies STOP to any message, carrier automation immediately locks their phone number into opted-out status.
- No Dashboard Override: Editing or saving a client profile in the dashboard CANNOT re-opt a stopped phone number. The customer must text START or UNSTOP from their mobile phone.
The 250-recipient batch cap
Every marketing campaign broadcast is sliced to MAX_RECIPIENTS = 250. If you have an audience of 500 contacts, plan your sends in segmented batches to ensure full reach.
Email suppression rules
Email unsubscribe clicks permanently add recipient emails to the suppression list. The platform suppresses future marketing emails automatically to maintain high inbox deliverability.

Troubleshooting
When the workflow doesn’t look right
A customer wants to receive marketing texts again after texting STOP.
Instruct the customer to text "START" or "UNSTOP" to your business phone number from their phone.
