When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it on forms that signal buying intent: demo request, pricing request, contact sales.
  • Use it when the form itself collects SMS consent, so the opt-in exists at the moment of submission (see messaging-003).

Skip it

  • Do not use it on newsletter or content download forms. An SMS after a low-intent form reads as intrusive and burns message segments.
  • Do not use it for leads outside the US. Native Marketing SMS only reaches US numbers that start with +1 and contain 11 digits. For other countries, use the app action in messaging-018 or let the email fallback run.
