Office Controller
“TextMagic allowed us to send and receive information to drivers and engineers all from one set point. It's much easier than different members of the office staff sending instructions on their mobiles and then when they leave the office we do not have a data trail.”

SMS distribution lists make it easier for you to send bulk SMS to multiple contacts at the same time. Instead of manually sending the same text to your contacts, you can forward the message to a distribution list, thus saving precious time.
Step #1: Create a new distribution list.
Step #2: Add SMS recipients to your SMS distribution list by manually inserting numbers or contacts or by choosing from your pre-defined lists or recently sent texts.
Step #3: Select the information that you want to include in the SMS content, maximum length and sender information. Once the list is complete, click Continue.
Step #4: Now set up forwarding in your email application.
Step #5: You can also send the same SMS to your distribution list using TextMagic’s email to SMS service. Simply copy and paste the dedicated email every time you create a new text message in your email service.
No. You can create as many distribution lists as you need.
Simply click on the wheel icon in the Services -> Distribution Lists tab and click Delete.
Yes! The text messages will be displayed in your dashboard, on the History page. The latter displays the sending status as a percentage. For example, if your text was sent to all the members of your distribution list, you will see a ‘100% DELIVERED’ report.
For more details on delivery status, simply click on the report. Delivered, accepted, failed and rejected texts will be displayed in corresponding tabs.
Navigate to the History tab from the TextMagic dashboard and click on the Status report. You can view the total cost in the Summary tab. You can also check out the cost of each SMS from the Delivered, Accepted, Failed and Rejected tabs.
