3. Load the spreadsheet with your data

The example below shows an SMS to be sent to a list of debtors. It uses the ##CUSTOM1## field as the debtors first name and the ##CUSTOM2## field as the amount owed.

Load the mobile numbers, first name and amounts owed in the columns as showed and click “Send SMS”.

That’s it. Sending an SMS from an Excel spreadsheet, you never have to login to any website, just load up the data and away you go.
