Frequently Ask Questions
What is business texting?
Business texting (also called business text messaging or SMS messaging) is how companies communicate with candidates, customers, and leads through text messages using a dedicated business phone number and professional platform. Unlike personal texting apps, business texting platforms like TextUs enable teams to manage conversations at scale with two-way SMS messaging, automated campaigns, CRM integrations, and compliance tools. Whether you're recruiting, selling, or marketing, business texting helps you connect on the channel people actually use—with 98% open rates and response times in minutes, not hours.
How does TextUs work?
Getting started is straightforward. You'll get a dedicated business phone number (or port an existing one) to send and receive SMS text messages. Import contacts from your CRM, ATS, or spreadsheet, then send individual messages, bulk texts, or set up automated SMS campaigns—all from one platform. Recipients can reply directly, and your team manages conversations in real-time through the TextUs dashboard or mobile app. Everything syncs with your existing tools like Salesforce, Greenhouse, or HubSpot, so your messaging data lives where you need it. Most teams are up and running within hours.
Who is TextUs for?
TextUs is built for professional teams who need to communicate quickly and at scale.
