Where iMessage runs in the funnel
Nurture sequences that don't silently stop arriving
SMS filters progressively; by week eight your reach drops. iMessage stays deliverable. Read receipts show stalled (read, no reply) vs never-saw (unread).
Proposal reactivation when rates and financing shift
Stale proposals are paid assets. Work one-to-one when rates or neighborhood conditions change. No per-message fees.
What does the first text to a solar lead look like?
First-minute blue bubble from local number asks qualifying question. Appointment confirmations and read receipts in-thread.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if the number isn't on iMessage?
Falls back to RCS then SMS. All leads get the follow-up in one thread; only the bubble changes.
Does this connect to our solar CRM?
GoHighLevel is native. Everything else via REST API. New leads fire first send, appointments trigger confirmations. Implementation during activation.
Does a text thread survive a 2-3 month cycle?
Yes. SMS silently stops mid-sequence. iMessage reports delivery and read state. Closers work stalls by who read the last touch.
Do we need A2P registration?
No. No approval queue before following up on today's leads. Capture consent at forms; honor STOP automatically.
Can we reactivate old leads from last year?
Yes. Cheapest pipeline. Rates and financing shift; one-to-one reactivation with no per-message fees.
