We use OpenPhone instead of Google voice for 2FA codes and for client communication. I'll go over that in this video and show you our setup.
Here's how to work around needing to pay for multiple users as your team grows:
- Make sure you have a central email inbox setup (like help@yourdomain.com or support@yourdomain.com)
- Give your entire team access to this (we save the login info in 1Password)
- Use this to create your account on OpenPhone
- Have everyone download the Desktop and/or phone app and login with that central inbox
Tips:
⚡️ We have a Zap that enters the client contact info into OpenPhone when they sign with us
⏱️ Schedule text messages to clients for business hours
✅ Mark things done when actioned to get them out of the inbox
