Why You Need It

Save Time And Money

Monitoring a chat line constantly is costly and labor intensive. With Text Webchat messages reach your potential guests as texts. Answer chat questions when you want, and don’t worry about keeping prospective customers waiting online. No need to hire extra staff to continuously check live chat.

Impress Prospective Guests

Don’t alienate potential guests by making them wait online for a chat response. Text Webchat sends an auto response so leads know when to expect a reply by text. Text back and forth as needed, and show how efficient and attentive your vacation rental company is.

Capture Leads With Ease

Enable Text Webchat on your website and users get a pop-up so you can text back. And just like that, you collect the names and phone numbers of potential guests. With Text Webchat, it’s easy to connect with prospective guests, cultivate leads and grow your vacation rental business.
