A data capture (FKA autoresponder) is used with groups. It's the essential part of a good relationship and the core module we used in our famed DigitalConnectTexts.com. Besides keeping the conversation going, a data capture is a great way to collect data. At the moment, PastorsLine can capture the texter’s name, email, and birth date.
Here's how a data capture works:
- A first-time guest joins a small group.
- The data capture which you previously set up acknowledges their signup and welcomes them to the fold.
- It then interacts with them to capture their contact information.
Here is a temporary overview video as we make important changes to accommodate the short code keyword.
