I just signed up with constant contact. Speaking with the sales person on the phone I was told that I could manually add a contact and manually opt-in the contact for SMS. All of my contacts are patients at my clinic that opt-in to SMS on a paper form. I have added a few test contacts though am unable to send SMS to them. Constant Contact says they need to fill out an opt-in form to receive SMS. Am I missing something? Is there any way to manually opt in a contact for SMS?
Hello @DavidR8207,
The one way to get your existing contacts signed up for SMS would be to send them a link to a sign-up form here.
