What is Mass Text Messaging?
Mass text messaging is a type of communication channel that enables an organization to send multiple SMS or MMS messages to a large number of contacts at once, saving time and effort for internal teams. With Sakari’s mass texting service, businesses can pre-schedule bulk texts like alerts, promotions, sweepstakes, and more to hundreds or thousands of contacts.
Create, send, and manage your business mass texting directly in our application.
Bulk Import Your Contacts
Segmentation is key when it comes to organizing your contacts for mass messaging. If you have different contact lists, Sakari makes it easy to add your existing data using our bulk text messaging tools. All you have to do is upload a CSV file!
You can add core data fields like first and last name, company, email address, etc. Oh, and did we mention that you can upload an unlimited number of contacts?!
Tags or attributes are data fields added to each contact record. These fields are completely customizable and can include things like: states, business role, or customer type.
Locations like state or country
Business role
Deal pipeline status
Customer type
Sakari’s software makes managing these tags easy with keyword searches and bulk editing. With the tags applied, you can send bulk text messages to specific users based on tag filtering.
Schedule your messages to deliver automatically when you want, to the contacts you want. When used in conjuction with texting campaigns, your messages can be delivered at a specific date and time or on a recurring basis.
With this flexibility, you can schedule all of your mass messaging at once.
With our mass text message software, you can send and receive SMS and MMS directly through the Sakari dashboard or our mobile app. When you send mass SMS to your contacts and they reply, you can track the entire conversation history with each contact, all in real-time.

Sakari has proved invaluable to my department and has truly contributed directly to the bottom line of our Firm, even in the middle of COVID-19. It's worth every penny we spend to send texts— literally!
Sakari has allowed us a highly scalable, engaging, and powerful way to connect with clients, store structured data, and bring transparency across teams. We've never been closer to our clients.
Many of the world's largest businesses are using text messages today, and for good reason: it works. It’s 2021, and the way customers and employees want to communicate has changed. E-mails are often marked as spam; nobody ever answers a phone call from a number they don’t recognize. As the world has become more mobile, people prefer to use their cell phones. Text messaging has emerged as the primary way people want to communicate. Across each metric, text messages outperform emails in every way. SMS messages are opened more, opened faster, and responded to more frequently.
What are my different contact upload options?
In order to start sending mass text messages, you must provide Sakari the data in order to send each message. At a minimum, Sakari needs the mobile phone number of your contacts, but unlimited additional data can be provided.
The more information provided, the more your messages can be customized by incorporating this data in to your message (e.g. first names, appointment dates, etc).
When providing data to Sakari, you have three options:
Manual - Contacts can be added individually using the Sakari web dashboard. While this is a manual process, it provides instantly availability and no time to set up.
Bulk Imports - Bulk imports allow you to upload file directly from an Excel file in to Sakari. No development is required. The user simply needs to import their information to Sakari using a CSV file import and the data will instantly be available.
SMS API - This is the most scalable option, but does require more work. The API will allow for direct integration in to their existing systems, but often will take some time to develop. Integration platforms like Zapier make this easier, but not applications have been associated.
