Sentiment Analysis for Franchise Texting

Compliant from the Outset, Supported by AI

Our business texting platform focuses on omnichannel customer engagement and allows you to create compliance-based opt-in programs with contextualized, system-generated responses, uniform across the enterprise. Built-in Artificial Intelligence ensures that customers who don’t want your texts can opt out successfully.

The system uses “sentiment analysis” to auto-unsubscribe recipients when negative language (instead of “STOP” or “X”) is detected. For example, someone who texts “I don’t want these messages” would be detected and put into the opt-out category for review. This protects your brand more completely.

Put Review-Gathering (& More) on “Auto”

Automate the request for reviews process without the expense of a review management service, using text-based review requests linking recipients to your review portals. Automate the process after a service is complete or have your on-site service personnel send a request to the customer on the spot from the mobile app while the customer sees the great results firsthand.

UNIQUE FRANCHISOR TEXTING FEATURES FOR SUPPORTING MULTIPLE LOCATIONS

Adoption & Compliance Dashboards

Makes it easy to see which franchisees have adopted text campaigns, which are more active, while you identify their best practices, quantify their opt-out rates, etc. This allows you to showcase those who are thriving and support those who need assistance.


Provides Performance and KPI Dashboards

Our robust reporting and tracking functions measure the success of your SMS marketing campaigns, along with franchisee-engagement levels, providing critical insights into optimizing future performance. Dashboards allow you to see aggregated and localized franchise views to compare performance. A rich set of Business Intelligence tools facilitate the creation of custom KPIs.

Got A Clean Phone List?

Built-in phone-list management functionality, that tracks wrong/restricted numbers and undeliverable landline numbers, gives you accurate insight on your list and doesn’t just treat all those numbers as opt-out stats.

Text blast credit pooling for franchise

Make Follow-up Happen with Business Texting

Set our system to tag employees using text to follow up with specific prospects or open issues to keep them moving forward or to address issues, questions, etc.

Pooling of Credits

It is often important to treat franchisees the same, even though some may be more active than others. Textellent’s message pool concept lets you support franchisees easily and automatically when they might need to dip into additional messaging credits for a special program, and the best part is that you can set the parameters and adjust them as needed.
