How SMS and Messages Work with Pipedrive
You can link SMS tools to Pipedrive in many ways. Each way works a bit different and has its own good points. Let’s break it down in plain words:
Some apps are built in. These are easy to use. You can find them in the Pipedrive store. Click a few times, and your SMS goes right into your deals. Fast, simple, no fuss. No need to leave the main app. It just works.
Using an API link gives more freedom. If your needs are not simple, or if you want a tool made just for your team, you can get a coder to set up the link for you. This takes more time but gives you control to make it fit your work.
Zapier sits in the middle; not too hard, not too easy. It uses rules for “do this, do that.” Say you make a new deal, Zapier can tell your SMS tool to send a note. No need for code. Zapier covers many SMS tools, so you can use the one you like. These steps take place after a short delay, but still are very handy.
Chrome add-ons can pop up inside Pipedrive. You click a name, then click to send an SMS. Fast for single texts. Great when you need to send a quick note. Sometimes, though, it might not copy the SMS into Pipedrive each time.
After you set up your way to send SMS, you open even more things you can do. You can make a rule so texts go out at a set time, or when a deal changes. You can set up pre-made texts, and have it pull info from your deal or contact. Then, each text feels more real and fits the person you send it to.
One neat thing is two-way chat. It means you do not just send a text – the other person can write you back. Their answer lands in Pipedrive, with your other notes. You can chat back. This makes your talk feel real and helps you build trust. You don’t just send SMS out – you talk and grow your link with each person.
Last, you get tools to see how things go. You can check who read your texts, who replied, and who became a client. You see these numbers right in Pipedrive, or use another page. These show what works, and what you need to fix.
Don’t forget about syncing your contacts. Add a new name or change a phone, and your SMS app updates. No more texting the wrong number or missing new leads.
So, pick what fits you best. Use easy native apps, build as you like with APIs, or go with Zapier for quick setup. Each way helps you talk to your leads or clients fast, and helps make your sales work easy and smart. Try your way now and start to get things done!

TimelinesAI is a tool that works with WhatsApp and Pipedrive. It keeps all your talks with buyers in one place and links your chats to deals fast. With WhatsApp, you talk in real time, send pictures or files, and know when someone reads your message. TimelinesAI makes it easy to talk with people who want to buy, helps you follow up, and helps your sales job run smooth.
Chat Support
TimelinesAI lets you send and get messages in WhatsApp, not just texts but pictures and files too. You can see who read your message. You can make group chats. This helps you when you need to talk with a few people at once, such as in business sales. Everyone stays up to date and can share things right away.
Workflows and Auto Actions
TimelinesAI comes with a simple Workflow Builder. You can set it so some things happen on their own if triggered by things in Pipedrive or WhatsApp. For example, you can set up auto messages to check in with people who you want to buy your product, or send a note when you get a new lead. These things mean you do less work by hand and save time.
The tool also uses smart bots with ChatGPT. These bots help write messages just for your buyers, based on things you said before. They help you know what to say next. You can also send messages to lots of people, keep your notes looking real while talking to each one straight.
Use with Pipedrive
TimelinesAI links up with Pipedrive fast and easy, using its own way to talk to the app (API). Info gets updated right away, so you always see the latest. There’s also a Chrome add-on so you can chat on WhatsApp from inside Pipedrive itself, no need to switch screens.

Twilio has a “drag-and-drop” tool called Studio. With this, you can make how chats go based on what folks say back. For example, if someone says “YES” to a meet, Twilio sends them a time and date right away. If they say “NO,” they get other times to pick.
Pipedrive Integration Type
Twilio works well with Pipedrive. Each text you send gets saved in your sales app. You can use APIs or Zapier to link your contacts, deal steps, or chats from Twilio to Pipedrive. This keeps all your talk and sales info in one spot for you.
If you need more, you can set up things your own way with custom APIs. You can move info as you want when deals change or when folks are tagged. It shapes to fit how you work.
Pricing (in USD)
Twilio lets you pay as you go, so it works for small or big teams. Each text you send in the US is just $0.0075, less than a cent. If you text folks in other lands, it costs a bit more, from $0.02 to $0.15 each, based on the place.
There is no high fee each month for simple SMS. You pay just for what you use. To rent a phone line is $1.00 a month. You pay less per text if you send lots of texts.

Set Texts to Send by Itself
You can use Zapier to make TextMagic send texts without you needing to type each time. You can set it to send notes or follow-up texts when new deals come up or change. If someone new goes in Pipedrive, TextMagic can say hello with a first text.
A good thing it does is send texts to remind you or others of things that will happen soon. These texts tell you the time, what will happen, and who will show up. TextMagic can send a fast text back when someone sends one in, even when you are busy or not there. It keeps people talking to your business and makes sure your list in Pipedrive is always right and fresh, without you having to do all the work by hand.
"Really, Textmagic hits that sweet spot of being both a joy to use and powerful enough for almost anything a small business needs." – Justin Pot, Sales Writer, Zapier

Common Ways to Use SMS & Messages with Pipedrive
Adding SMS and message tools to Pipedrive helps you reach people fast and work well. Here are simple ways to use texts in your day-to-day jobs. These ideas help you get more deals and make ties with your buyers stronger.
Quick Lead Reply
Speed matters with new leads. If someone gives info or gets a guide on your web page, send a short text within 2–3 minutes. Try: “Hi [Name], thanks for getting our guide! What is hard for you with [topic]?” A fast text like this gets replies soon, in 10–15 minutes. This can mean a lot in fields where fast talk can win deals. Texts also work for other steps in the sales path, not just to say hi.
Remind About Meetings and Demos
Missed calls or shows can slow work down. SMS reminders make sure people come. Most teams send three notes: when setting the meet, then 24 hours before, and last, 2 hours before.
Here’s a 24-hour note: “Hi [Name], happy to show you our demo tomorrow at 2 PM. I’ll ring at [phone]. Got any questions?” A last 2-hour note may say: “Reminder: demo at 2 PM today. Talk soon!”
Help New Users Get Started
When a lead pays and becomes a buyer, use SMS to aid them at first. For the first few weeks, send short texts to say welcome, tell them how to set up, and see how they do. This is good for groups that sell online tools or apps, as new buyers may need help to use what they bought.
Tell About End Dates and Renewals
When time is short, texts reach people better than email. You can send notes with updates 60, 30, and 7 days before key end dates.
An example: “Hi [Name], your [service] deal ends 12/15/2025. Want to keep it? Talk with me to go on!”
Share News on Events and Webinars
If you run talks or online shows, use SMS to ask your clients to join. Send invites to contacts from Pipedrive and say why it is worth their time. A note may say: “Hi [Name], join our free online talk on 1/25/2025 at 1 PM to learn about [topic]. Want a spot?”
Set or Change Meetings
If a meeting must change, use SMS. A short note like, “Hi [Name], need to move our 3 PM meet. Does 4 PM today or 10 AM tomorrow suit you?” often gets a fast answer and keeps your plans straight.
Ask for Views and Feedback
Once you help a customer, you can use SMS to ask how you did. A quick note works well: “Hi [Name], how did you like your visit? Text back 1-5 (5 is best). Thank you!” If someone gives a low mark, reach out soon to fix the problem and show you care.
Reminders to Pay
If someone pays late, it can cause trouble with money. SMS can help by pushing people to act fast. Send a note when a bill is due soon, and send another if it is late. For instance: “Hi [Name], bill #1234 for $2,500 is due now. You can pay online at [link] or let me know your questions.”
How to Choose the Right SMS Tool for Pipedrive
How to Pick the Right SMS Tool for Pipedrive
Picking the best SMS tool for Pipedrive starts with knowing what you need to send texts well. Use these things to help you find what works right for you:
How Many Messages and How Many People
First, think about how many texts your team sends and how big your team is. If you work alone and send a few hundred texts each month, a pay-as-you-go tool can work just fine. Teams with lots of people, who send thousands of texts, will need a tool that can grow with them and give them more control. Small groups may want simple plans you pay for as you use, but big teams need plans that let them send lots of texts and help them keep things in line. Bulk plans often work best for big teams, and if you add tools that do things for you, it will save lots of time.
Need for Things to Be Done for You
Ask yourself how much help you want from the tool to work for you. If you do things by hand and send fewer texts, basic tools can do the job. If you want texts sent out when someone signs up, gets new info, or needs a reminder, pick a tool that can do these things on its own. Some SMS tools can even do thousands of tasks for you in a month. If you want more change or to make it fit your needs, pick a tool with good links to your system, but you may need to know some tech to use them well.
How It Works with Pipedrive
How well the tool works with Pipedrive is very key. Look for a tool that links with Pipedrive like it is made for it. The tool should:
- Keep track of texts for you in each contact;
- Help you do things in Pipedrive when you get a reply;
- Let you see all texts sent and got in one place.
Tools that work with Pipedrive without extra steps feel better than those that need other fixes. Good links to the tool help you work faster and keep all your steps in line.
Rules for Sending Texts in the U.S.
If you send texts in the U.S., you need to follow the rules. You must have clear "yes" from people before you text, and keep records to show they said "yes." Some SMS tools will store these records for you and make sure people can stop texts when they want. Pick a tool that does these things, so you do not run into trouble with the law.
How Well Texts Get Sent and Get to People
Not every SMS tool sends texts with the same speed or care. Some tools use top networks to make sure texts go out quick and get there every time, while others may slow down or miss some. If your work is in more spots, or you send messages outside your home country, check if the tool can send texts far away and do it well. This helps texts to always get where they should.
How Much It Costs
How much money you have can help you choose. You can pay each time you send a text, or pick a plan for each month, based on how many texts you send or people you have. Some tools cost more for things like extras, set up, or strong data. Think about what you need and what you want, and make sure you do not spend too much for things you do not use.
What You Need to Set Up
Think about how hard it is to set up the tool. Some tools are easy to get started with; you just point and click. That makes them good for groups who do not know much about tech. Other options, such as ones built on APIs like Twilio, may need help from a person who codes or works in IT. If your group does not have tech people, pick tools that are already plugged in with what you use. This way, you can set things up fast and with no issues. Simple set up helps you save time and keep work easy.
How to Start and Use Your SMS Tool
Getting your SMS tool to work with Pipedrive is key. This makes your message plan strong. Sending good texts, staying legal, and watching how your texts do – these steps help you win.
Make Simple Message Samples
Build a list of short texts for each need. Some texts will ask new people to talk. Some will remind about times. Some will call after a meeting. Some will share news on deals. Keep each text short – under 160 letters – so you pay less.
Use name tags to make each message feel real. Say things like “Hi [First Name]” or “Hi [First Name], thanks for looking at [Product Name].” Talk the way you would to a friend. Use short words. Test each text by sending it to yourself. Check how it looks before you use it.
Have Clear Opt-In Steps
Make sure people agree before you text them. Put a clear sign-up box on your site. Tell people what they get when they give their number. Say, “By giving your number, you get texts about us. Some costs may happen. Type STOP to quit.”
Check that your SMS tool stops texts right away when people text “STOP.” Try this step yourself. Save proof every time someone says yes. If someone asks, you can show you followed the rules.
Watch What Matters
Look at numbers like sent, read, and reply counts. These numbers show when people like to get texts. If most people reply in the morning, send your next text then.
See which messages work best. Change your plan to fit what you learn. Track wins and deals from texts to see what helps you most. Use what you find to make your work better each time.
Use Simple Dashboards
Your SMS tool gives live boards to see how things go. Get a report each week. Look at how many texts you sent, how many people replied, and if there were any rule problems (like missed messages or people quitting).
Share what you find with your team. Work as one group to fix things or keep things going well.
Watch for strange changes. If people stop replying, your texts may look like junk. If messages don’t go out, you may need fresh lists or fixes.
Try Before You Start
Test with your team first. Make sure name tags show the real names, not just “[Contact.FirstName].”
Try quitting by texting “STOP” to check if your tool stops quick. See how your text looks on lots of phones. This helps you see and fix any problems before everyone gets your message.
Keep Your Contact Lists Updated
Old or wrong phone numbers can make it hard for your texts to get to people. It can also cost you more money. Let your SMS app take out phone numbers that do not work. Every now and then, go over your list to get rid of names and numbers that show up twice or are old. When you add new people, use a tool to check that the numbers are right, with the area code there and not too many or too few numbers.
Time Your Messages Wisely
Think about the best time to send your texts. Try to send them in work hours – most of the time this means from 9 in the morning to 6 in the evening. This way, people will get your texts when they want. Many SMS apps let you pick the time to send messages. Use that. Also, watch out for time zones. If you send a text at 2 in the afternoon in the east, people in the west will get it at 11 in the morning. Sometimes, that is the right time for them to read it.

SMS messaging can significantly enhance how Pipedrive handles sales, improving response rates and speeding up deal closures.

What should I do to comply with SMS messaging laws in the U.S. while using these tools?
To align with SMS messaging regulations in the U.S., it’s crucial to get explicit consent from recipients before sending any messages. Every text should also include a clear opt-out option to allow users to unsubscribe easily. Make sure your business is clearly identified in each message, and avoid sending texts during quiet hours – typically between 9:00 PM and 8:00 AM in the recipient’s local time.
On top of that, prioritize customer data security by using reliable systems. Stay away from spammy or misleading content, and keep a permanent record of all communications for accountability. These practices not only ensure compliance but also help establish trust with your audience.
