  • Easily testing your campaign from the learner’s perspective.

  2. Locate the "Sign Up Hashtag" section.Creating a sign up hashtag in ConveYour.

  3. Choose a simple, one-word hashtag (avoid spaces. Hyphens are allowed).

How the Hashtag Method Works

Example Scenario

  • You’re a speaker at an event and want attendees to stay engaged post-event.

  • You display:
    "Text #JoinUs to [Your ConveYour Number] to sign up!"

  • Attendees text the hashtag, and they:

    • Receive an automatic confirmation message.

    • Get a direct link to the campaign portal.

    • Are added to your contact list for follow-ups.

What If They Make a Mistake?

If someone texts the wrong hashtag but uses your ConveYour number, the SMS Catch-All feature will:

  • Still capture their contact information.

  • Send them an automated response to guide them.

  • Notify you so you can manually assign them to the correct campaign.

Why Use Hashtags?

  • Instant Sign-Ups – No need for forms, just a simple text message.

  • Better Engagement – Encourages attendees to connect with your content in real time.

  • Automated Tracking – Automatically categorizes learners into groups.

  • Easy Follow-Ups – Capture contact info for continued outreach.
