A finance team wants a newly created contact to receive a timely message, rather than waiting for someone to export details from Greatweek and prepare a separate SMS. This matters when a contact needs onboarding information, a payment-related welcome or a direct acknowledgement from the business. Greatweek provides the event, and Mobile Message handles the text through Zapier.

Use New Contact as the Greatweek trigger and pair it with Mobile Message Send SMS. The Zap can send a personalised message to the new contact when a mobile number is available. For a standard notice that should reach several people, Send SMS to List is another option. Greatweek’s Create Contact action can also be started by Mobile Message’s Inbound SMS Received trigger when an incoming text contains the contact information needed for the record.

Each Zap has one direction and a defined result. Greatweek can start a Mobile Message message, or Mobile Message can start a Greatweek contact creation. The platforms do not become a synchronised database, but the connection can reduce repeated entry and help new contacts receive information sooner.
