Stealth Voicemail Campaign Guide
Change the way you communicate with potential and existing clients! We are excited to announce our newest Hosted Contact Center feature:
Stealth Voicemail Campaign!
Stealth Voicemail campaigns send voicemail messages without ringing the recipient's phone. This feature allows you to avoid “hang-ups” and can minimize the number of “No contact” calls with consumers. You can simply deliver your message while still allowing the consumer to call back if desired. Configuration is designed to be frictionless and is similar to the set up of other campaigns. We've also added a new "Messages" report that will make keeping track of all sent messages a breeze!

Run StealthVM campaign:
StealthVM campaign can Run if...
Voicemail message audio file is uploaded (What to send tab)
At least one contact list is assigned (Who to call tab)
Start campaign on date and time is not set (When to send)
After all mandatory fields are filled, the Admin can Run the campaign.
How StealthVM campaigns work:
StealthVM campaign will automatically start on the date and time entered in the Start campaign on field after the Admin clicks Run.
Stealth voicemail messages will be sent to all contacts from assigned Contact lists.
If the same phone number is included in 2 or more Contact lists, we will send 1 Stealth voicemail message per Contact List.
If the same phone number is included twice in the assigned Contact list, we will send 1 Stealth voicemail message.
Stealth voicemail messages will be sent according to the set Speed Limit.
(For example: Running a StealthVM campaign with a contact list of 1000 and Speed Limit is set as Limit to 500 per minute will take 2 minutes to complete)
Campaign will automatically stop after all Stealth voicemail messages are delivered.
