Message Mate is a simple but wonderful slider add-on to your website that advertises a phone number which current and prospective customers can text with one click to reach you or your employees.
Your customers would rather text than call you. In fact, 76% of young adults prefer to interact with companies via texting (and not through calls, emails, live chat or contact forms). And thankfully for your business, texting is a more efficient and less distracting means of communication.
Texts also have much higher engagement potential with a 97% open rate, at least three times higher than email.
Up to three users can receive and respond to incoming messages via SMS, email, and a web dashboard. And you can even add automated responses and post-conversation rating requests.

You can control access to messaging and who the user can message. It also allows quotas to be set for each role and maximum message size. The options available are:
Based on each role you can disable or set limits on messaging.

<li>Messaging quota; 1 to unlimited emails per month, week or day. Messages to admin not counted. </li>
<li>Message Character Limit: Enforce maximum number of characters per message.</li>
