Use VistoSMS for Residential & Commercial Tenant Communications

Use VistoSMS to keep residents and staff in the loop about rent reminders, scheduled maintenance, community projects, inspections, and other residential announcements.

Build trust in your property management company

Property management companies thrive on happy renters, well-cared-for properties, and satisfied employees. VistoSMS helps you achieve these goals with an easy-to-use, personalized communication solution. Our property management texting service allows management to send voice or text messages to every resident and maintenance person in your contacts list

Why Property Managers Should Use Conversational Texting

As a property manager, you are likely the sole point of contact for tenants when they have queries or things go wrong at their homes or commercial premises. Property managers deal with a variety of communication challenges, from keeping track of multiple properties to making sure dozens of tenants in one apartment property are taken care of. Conversational SMS messaging for property management can help relieve some of these challenges and boost efficiency.

Traditionally, tenants call their landlords or managing agents to inform them of any problems at their properties. There is usually a lot of telephone call tennis between both parties as arrangements are made to address any maintenance issues. VistoSMS is an excellent solution for rental property management because recipients can respond on their own time, and the messages can be kept as proof of when requests were received and actioned.

Tenants Can Easily Request Maintenance Work

Easy To Alert Tenants In Emergencies

On some occasions, you must alert your tenants of emergencies that could impact, disrupt or harm them. For example, there might be a power outage in the tenant’s neighborhood that could cause a loss of service to your property. Emergency messages will most likely be sent out as a mass message. Thankfully, property managers can quickly and efficiently address tenants by using a texting-for-business solution like VistoSMS. With just a few quick button clicks, you can inform all tenants at once of any emergencies.

When your tenants are due to leave your properties, you will undoubtedly want to arrange for new tenants to move in immediately after your existing ones leave. Doing so will obviously ensure there is little interruption to your rental income stream. By using VistoSMS's conversational texting, you can schedule viewings with your existing tenants so they can be either present or absent while you show the potential new ones around your properties.

Landlords Can Arrange Viewings

Easy To Communicate With Prospective Tenants

First impressions are everything, and when it comes to property management, you'll want to be able to answer questions for prospective tenants as quickly as possible. Using telephone calls often renders this impossible, which is where 2-way texting comes in. VistoSMS's texting for property management solutions is a discreet way for both prospective tenants and you to communicate with each other. Plus, texting guarantees that neither party misses out on any critical communications.

Text messaging is a convenient and simple yet effective way to communicate with people, especially in situations where it might not be possible to talk on the telephone. For example, you or your tenants might be in poor signal areas but can easily pick up their text messages in an area with better reception.

Texting Is Convenient For Both Parties

SMS Is An Inexpensive Communications Medium

One of the reasons that SMS is still such a popular communication medium is because of how cheap it is to send text messages. With VistoSMS, you can choose between a monthly plan and a Pay-As-You-Go plan. Inbound messages are always free, and you can add on unlimited conversations to our monthly plans.

The above is by no means a complete list of reasons why property managers should use conversational texting with their tenants. But, it details the top ones.

VistoSMS Offers the Features You Need to be Successful

With VistoSMS, you get all the standard features of a mass texting service plus industry-leading, cutting-edge features you won’t find anywhere else. There’s no better way to grow your business.

Automatic Text Reply

When you send thousands of text messages, you might get thousands of replies. Instead of managing each reply individually, use VistoSMS to schedule a text message reply each time your customers mention a particular keyword. They text, and you send an auto response text within seconds without lifting a finger.

Drip Campaigns

Drip campaigns are an effective tool to help your customers go from the research phase to the purchase phase. Bring the drip campaign method into your text marketing strategy with VistoSMS. Schedule messages to be sent out at particular intervals to walk your contacts through why they should choose your product, service or organization.

Mass Group Texting

Send a mass text with the click of a button with VistoSMS. Busy professionals don’t have time to send messages to thousands of people each day. So automate the process. Instantly reach thousands — or hundreds of thousands — of people with our one-of-a-kind mass text service.

Unlimited Contacts

Any mass texting service that limits the number of people you can text isn’t doing its job. While our competitors like to limit the number of contacts you can have, we make sure your message reaches everyone — and we mean everyone — that you need it to. No limits on contacts — ever.

Schedule Texts

We want to be the leader in automated text message for business services, and one of the most important parts of SMS marketing automation is the ability to schedule a text. With VistoSMS, you can write your messages ahead of time and schedule them for whenever you want. Make your work schedule work for you.

Send Long Messages

Limiting the number of characters you can send in a mass text message is like turning off your microphone in the middle of a speech. Your message doesn’t get across. That’s why we won’t limit the length of your text messages. Stop thinking in 160 characters and start thinking about everything your customers need to know.

Text Keywords

Set custom keywords to allow your contacts to automatically join groups, get discounts, reach people in your organization and more. Set as many keywords and related functions as you want.

International Texting

Do you have clients that are based in Belgium? Costa Rica? Egypt? You name it, we can send it! Texting Base is one of the few platforms that offers International Texting! A list of countries and cost of units can be found by clicking here.

Authentic Text Messages

No spam, no undelivered messages. VistoSMS sends real, authentic SMS messages directly to mobile carriers so your message never gets locked in the spam folder. Everyone on your contact list gets the full message you sent in seconds.

Birthday & Holiday Texts

Celebrating something (or someone!) special? VistoSMS makes it easy! Just create a message, personalize it, pick a date/time and it will automatically be sent. No more forgetting those special occasions!

Two Way SMS

What’s the point of sending mass text messages if you can’t continue the conversation when one of your contacts replies to you? With VistoSMS, you get a convenient, easy-to-use inbox that lets you see — and quickly respond to — everyone who has responded to your mass texts. Keep the conversation going.

Upload Your Contact List

Coming to VistoSMS from another mass texting service? You made the right choice! And you don’t have to worry about losing your contact list, either. Simply upload your existing contact list to VistoSMS and start sending messages. You don’t have to start from scratch to start using our platform.

Never miss a beat, a message, a request or anything at all by keeping all of your workflow apps — including your text marketing platform — fully integrated. Our cutting-edge API makes it not just possible, but easy.

Picture Messaging

There’s a handy little secret for those who want to know how to make their text marketing stand out from the crowd: use pictures. Images in text messages are memorable, get the message across and drive more engagement. VistoSMS allows you to attach a picture to any outgoing mass MMS message.

Multiple User Support

Get the right people in the right seats — that’s how organizations thrive and grow. Some of those seats probably involve a role in your SMS marketing campaigns, so don’t leave your team members out of your texting platform. Instead, add all of them to VistoSMS. We support unlimited users so your whole team can get involved.

Voice Services

What if some of your contacts would prefer to speak on the phone instead of texting? With most mass texting services, you would be out of luck. But VistoSMS makes voice calls easy. You can receive calls from any contact at your dedicated phone numbers.

Text to Join

SMS marketing isn’t just about sending text messages to your contacts — it’s also about growing your contact list. With VistoSMS’s Text to Join feature, getting more contacts is easy. You can allow people to text your dedicated number to join your list, giving you valuable contacts and data in the process.

Text to Vote

With our text to vote feature, you can quickly and easily get the opinion of your contacts. Ask a simple question and get thousands of answers within minutes. Don’t waste money on expensive surveys and emails no one will respond to — use text to vote data to drive impactful, growth-oriented decisions for your business.

Use Texting Base From Your Mobile Phone

You can do text marketing on the go with VistoSMS. Out and about, at home or simply away from your office computer, you can log in to your Texting Base account from your mobile phone and send out a text message blast. Get real text marketing results without setting foot in the office.

SMS Surveys

Sending surveys to customers is one of the best ways to get real, actionable feedback on your business or organization. That’s why we have implemented survey functionality in our platform. You can easily send text message surveys to your contacts to keep them engaged and get real insight fast.

Triggering Auto Responders

Want to be more interactive with your customers? VistoSMS offers a triggering capability, which means you can add words like “YES” or “NO” and an auto response will go out based on the client’s answer.

CTIA and Mobile Carrier Guidance

If you have done any mass texting for your business in the past, you know there are rules about disclaimers and giving contacts clear instructions for opting in and opting out. Keeping up with all of these rules can be complicated, but we make it simple. We offer mobile carrier and CTIA guidance to make sure you’re doing it all right.

Single Send

Sometimes, one engaged customer becomes more valuable than hundreds of other customers. Whether it’s a highly interested prospect or someone who has an appointment coming up, you can use VistoSMS to reach that particular individual with a perfectly tailored message that keeps them engaged.

Text Message Data Collection

Phone numbers are a given when you are collecting data from your SMS marketing efforts. But we think text message data collection should go deeper. That’s why we have designed VistoSMS to automatically collect data points like city, state, ZIP code, email address and first and last name.

Personalization

Never forget that your contacts are real people. They want to be talked to like real people. This should always inform your approach to text marketing. Want a quick and easy way to personalize a mass text? Address every recipient by name. With VistoSMS, you can do that quickly and easily.

Integrate Your Web Apps

Zapier integration allows you to connect VistoSMS with the web apps you’re already using. Even if you are using a relatively unknown app, we probably have you covered. That’s because VistoSMS can integrate with more than 3,000 apps! From the greatest hits like Slack and Salesforce to the deeper tracks like MailChimp and Shopify, we have you covered.

Secure Data and Information

For most businesses, data is more valuable than gold. Unfortunately, like gold, data is a common target of online theft and fraud. That’s why you need top-of-the-line encryption and SSL technology — like the kind that VistoSMS offers — to protect the data you collect with your SMS marketing efforts.

Built-In Link Shrinking

A mass texting service can drive thousands of visitors to your website if you include a link in your messages. But URLs are often long, and they look confusing and a little off-putting in text message format. Save characters and boost click-throughs by using VistoSMS’s built-in link shortener. Just a few characters is all you need.

Email Capture

Text message marketing and email marketing are close relatives, and both can bring exponential growth to your business. So why not have them work together? With VistoSMS, when you get new texting contacts, you instantly capture their email addresses. All you have to do is export them to your email marketing platform like MailChimp.

Inbound Multimedia Messaging Service

You can get multimedia responses from your contacts directly in your VistoSMS inbox. This feature allows your contacts to send you pictures that tell the whole story, whether it’s a customer service issue, an item they would like to sell or a type of home they would like to buy. The possibilities are virtually limitless

Two-Factor Authentication

Protect your VistoSMS account with two-factor authentication, the leading account protection technology. All this means is that you have to go a step further than your email and password; you get a text message with a unique login code every time you log in. That way, the right people — and only the right people — can access your mass texting service.

Personalize Data Mapping

Tired of sending standardized texts with no flare? Capture your audience by personalizing texts with their favorite sports teams, foods, etc. Simply upload a .csv file with your contacts (Phone, First Name and Last Name) and add any extra fields you desire!
