ASSIGN & PRIORITIZE SMS
FOR SALES TEAM:
When a customer sends us an SMS in response to receiving an SMS from Inspiring Vacations, a workflow will identify if it is from a contact with no live Deal.
FOR CS TEAM:
All other SMS messages will go to the MNL CS team.
Task Queue: 'MNL CS - All Tasks' Queue and a
Task Title: 'SMS Received - LAST NAME'
MNL CS agent needs to review the nature of the SMS and determine if it is in fact a Sales Lead or to be actioned as related to an Existing Booking.
1. Review the right hand side of the contact where you can see the message sent, and the response:
2. Review the Contact Activity feed where you will find the sent SMS and the customer response:
(Ensure you have ticked to view 'SMS by Sinch MessageMedia')
THIS CAN BE DONE FROM THE TASK VIEW BY CLICKING: EDIT.
If the message requires no response: just close the task, no need to action.
If the message relates to an existing booking: respond to the request via call or email following usual processes. (In case of an on-tour issue, it may be better to respond via SMS but this would be rare).
If the message relates to a TGTS event: just close the task (temporary process, they should route directly to Events team).
If the SMS relates to a new sales opportunity: please change the task queue to 'Sales - Leads'
Please note that there is now an OPT-OUT process in place and communicated in the SMS messages we are sending to customers.
Our messages now will include 'Reply STOP to opt-out'
If the customer responds with this word (not case sensitive), then we will get an SMS response from Sinch that says 'has Opted out'.
This is generating a task, which can just be closed, no action required.
