3. Compose Your Message

Here, you can craft your message with the following elements:

Body of the Message. Here you convey your primary message. You can type directly into the text box provided.

body_of_message

You can use templates to make your message more personal, especially when sending it to a group. To add a template, Tap on the "Template Fields" button and select the desired option from the dropdown menu.

insert_template

For example, by inserting the First Name template, you can automatically personalize each message with the recipient's first name. This ensures that each contact receives a customized message, yet without being aware of other recipients.
