Housebuilder Pro's Esendex integration allows you to send SMS messages to your contacts' mobile phones who have opted in to SMS marketing.
Setting up the Esendex integration is both simple and convenient. To start, you will need to register for an account with Esendex using this link: https://www.esendex.co.uk/esendex-housebuilder-pro/
Once an account has been created, you will be provided with an account password and an account reference.
To link Esendex and Housebuilder Pro you'll need to come back to the HBP system. Configuring the integration you'll need to be a system admin. Visit the "Admin" tab in the top-right of Housebuilder Pro and click into "Integrations".
You will see an integration for Esendex; simply fill in this integration with the email address used to register the account, the password for the account, and your account reference code. Once that has been filled in, click "Save changes".
