The Challenge

  1. A visitor submits their telephone number through a contact form.
  2. You receive an email notification containing an encoded SMS link which auto-populates the message body in the iPhone default SMS app.
  3. By clicking on this link, you are directed to the iMessage app where you can send the SMS in one tap.
  4. (optional) Sort and organize the form leads into a specific folder for manual batch processing at a later time.
  5. (optional) Set up an incoming email alert with VIP mailboxes.

The Solution

  • WordPress + Form Setup
  • Form Notification using Raw HTML and
  • iPhone + Mail App
  • Raw HTML with encoded sms link email notification
  • (optional) Replace the delivery method and recycle your existing email / marketing campaigns

Next Steps

Once you’ve obtained the phone number, it is possible to use an online tool to process it and send a personalized email message directly to the recipient’s phone. As SMS is essentially an email message, you can utilize your Email Client and add the mobile number to the relevant carrier domain.
