Carrier Registration A2P 10DLC Explained
I am a customer. happy one but looking for alternate now since I need voice notes capability in texting. :/
Really good marketing advice. Its not so much about the solution as it is getting your product out in the street and in the hands of users.
Thank you so much for this
excellent option thank you
This is a story about what worked in 2018. A lot has changed. Not guaranteed that this playbook if followed will bring customers like it did for OpenPhone back in the days. Defining ICP very narrowly is the actual answer to scale from 0 to 100 or 1000.
Fair enough and yes, that's our story from 2018, but I do share about being a lot more precise with ICP as my #1 thing I'd do differently so I do agree with you there. I also share upfront that we're a horizontal product serving many industries and use cases intentionally, so we went into this knowing we'll be building something for multiple personas. Some folks may not want to build a horizontal product and not all of what worked for us would be relevant to them.
great vid
Great video, thanks. One question - at the very end you said "I was on Medium - bad idea." Are you saying being on Medium was a bad idea, or waiting as long as you did was a bad idea?
@DarynaKula, why did you say "bad idea" when talking about blogging & medium?
good question! Instead of blogging on Medium I should've started our own blog on the website so we can get our domain reputation established
I was starting to feel overwhelmed and questioning if I might be in over my head with my startup, but your words have truly reignited my hope. Thank you so much! ❤
so happy to hear it!
I have search for notifer and I don’t even know what I am looking for
That is super inspiring!! I'm also looking for beta users by posting everywhere, DMing ppl in slack groups one by one and spamming all of my LinkedIn connections 😂
This is great, thanks! Yeah already got kicked off of a subreddit - those mods don’t play 😅
Glad this resonated and yeah that's a part of the journey :)
Wow! This is super valuable. Will share with my own portfolio of founders.
Glad to hear it and thank you!
Wanted to hear more about the posts that got you banned 😜
Where do I even start :) Tbh those were pretty simple "spammy" posts that looked like ads. I made enough of those that folks must've flagged me. Lesson learned!
Thank you, this was great. Currently at the step 1, trying to get free beta users :d Texting connection sounds great, doesn't that mean you require phone number to sign up though? Did you put it like an optional dialog, where it promises that you are not going to use the phone number for marketing etc?
In our case, since we are building OpenPhone and using OpenPhone, we'd send a text message within our own product to say hi and welcome new users. In your case, you can do several things. Maybe send a welcome text message if folks opt-into SMS. (the opt-in can be a part of the sign up flow). When asking folks to opt-in, you can mention what they're opting into
@@DarynaKulya That makes perfect sense, thank youu!
Thanks for the mention of Notifier.so! If anyone has any questions or needs any help with it let me know!
thank you, love your product
Hey folks! Hope you enjoy this video :) Lmk if you have any questions or feedback!
Great video, thanks for sharing!
thank you so much for making this video, it's a lifesaver!
Hey, Daryna, thanks for making this video. We have been around for 21 years and I have learned from your video. We are based on South East Asia, I am wondering if you might consider offering your solutions over this part of the world. If you do, I'd love to explore. Thank you.
Super useful info - I need to check out Notifier asap
I don't have this feature in my account. AI tags are not showing up like they are in this demo. How do I get access?
Hi @adamsylvester! We are currently in private beta and are getting ready for public beta soon :)
@@OpenPhone I’ve run both of my businesses on OpenPhone since 2022 but we’re strongly considering switching to Ring Central because we’re having so many issues with connectivity that the support team isn’t taking seriously. It’s been happening for 3+ weeks. Our frustration has reached a tipping point. Feel free to have someone reach out to me if you’d like to help us resolve these issues.
@@adamsylvester Hi Adam, we're sorry to hear that. We have found your open support ticket and it looks like our support team is in contact with you.
Would love job tread integration
I've made my account and the identity verification doesn't work. My ticket ID number is 475095
Hi there, our compliance team has concluded its investigation and confirmed that your account is in violation of our Terms of Service. We won't be discussing your specific case on this forum because we do not share account-specific information publicly. If you'd like to discuss privately, then please follow up on your active support ticket.
What about integrating with AI agents to repsond to texts and answer calls?
It may be possible to build an integration with AI in connecting with our API end, though you will want to speak with your developer on this and how it would work. In the meantime, we do have AI suggested texts on how to respond to some incoming messages here: support.openphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/16422146691351-How-to-get-AI-suggested-text-responses
workload can connect openphone with chatgpt/openai and interact with assistants.
How to enable that? That Contact Status is awesome!!! however I don't see it on my end of the dashboard
Contact Status in this video is a custom property added to the contact's card! For more information about custom properties, here is our support article! support.openphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500009885801-How-to-use-custom-properties-for-your-contacts You can see what custom properties you have with your contacts through this API endpoint here: www.openphone.com/docs/api-reference/contact-custom-fields/get-contact-custom-fields
How would i go about if i need help with syncing contacts between Openphone and my CRM?
Hi there! If you'd like to send me an email, I'm happy to discuss it in detail. But, basically, our CRM integrations are a one-way sync from your CRM to OpenPhone. They will not sync to OpenPhone until you have contacted them via your CRM. help+cristina@openphone.com
what is your CRM? There is a tool called workload that has openphone integrations and several CRMs (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Apollo, etc.).

I don't see my beta button - how do i get it?
Hi there! Are you on the Business plan or Starter? If you're on the Business plan and you don't see the beta option, please feel free to send me a DM with your email address so I can get you access. :)
@@OpenPhone yes on the business plan. Shooting a message now (to Daryna?). Thank you

When is this feature coming out?

Under Call flow, click *Try this beta*. 4. Select the sample call flow canvas and click *Edit call flow* to access the builder.
@@OpenPhone Under Call flow, mine does not show *Try this beta*

🔥Game Changer!
Nice to see all these features. It would be great to see more tutorials on different use cases. I am a business owner and don't have a dedicated tech team, so more tutorials would help :)
Hey there! We completely agree about the tutorials. Please feel free to email me directly at help+cristina@openphone.co with details. I would love to hear what you'd like us to cover. In the meantime, if you haven't already, check out our subreddit, u/OpenPhone. It's a great space to share tips and tricks with fellow users in the community.
How do I join a call with friends?
Hi there! Do you mean group group calling? If so, you can learn more here: bit.ly/3BZQLf6 If that's not what you mean, can you send me an email at help+cristina@openphone.co? I'll be happy to help you.
Wish i could work at openphone!
Does it support verification codes?
We do not currently support OTP/2FA.
Great talk very interesting! Can I find the next episode on Spotify?
Hi there! Yes you can! You can go to www.openphone.com/podcast and click the Spotify link to find our playlist. (:
Thanks! 😊
how can i contact you for more information?
Hi there! You can always direct message us on X or Instagram, we would be happy to hear from you and see how we can assist! (:
spammer's dream. local numbers anywhere
Hi there! Our compliance department works diligently to ensure that OpenPhone is used responsibly. In addition to requiring A2P registration, we enforce strict rules about contacting people without prior consent. If you’d like more information, feel free to reach out to our Support team!
I currently have sideline and will be switching to open phone because sideline only allows you to have 1 number. I'm in 3 different markets and need different area codes with each so that won't work. My question is will the openphone and sideline apps get buggy with each other while I'm waiting for my sideline number to finish porting?
Hi, @davidmacgown321! Thanks for your interest in OpenPhone! Your phone number will work with Sideline until the porting is completed. The transition will be seamless. You will only experience downtime if you haven't registered for A2P and intend to send SMS to US numbers. Please feel free to submit a support ticket, and we will be happy to answer all your questions!
This service is legit crap! Do not port your number to OpenPhone. I had Vonage for over 10 years and the minute I port over. It was hell. There is no live representative to help. You have to do it all on your own. There is no phone numbers for customer service. I currently have an issue that’s causing thousands of dollars in lost revenue and no one has reached out to help me fix the problem. Don’t do it
Hi Kay. We replied to your Instagram DM, but have not received a response. Do you still need assistance?
