Where iMessage runs in the funnel
Intake speed wins the client
Intake leads fill two other firms at once. HBR 2011: respond inside an hour, 7x more likely to qualify. A webhook fires a blue bubble within a minute, 98% open, 90% read in three minutes.
iMessage encryption where it matters
iMessage: end-to-end encryption. SMS: unencrypted. Encryption on iMessage path only; fallback to RCS/SMS is recorded. Rule: logistics and docs in thread, strategy in portal.
Four plays that move intake and collections
Minute-one intake from webhook. Consult confirmations and reminders in thread. Documents as photos and voice. Invoices in existing thread. Setup: lines provisioned, triggers wired, sequences built.
Everything above describes the mechanism. The Blue Funnel Map marks the stages where your own funnel is losing replies, and you keep the map whether or not you buy.
