RedChirp SMS integration logo and branding WineDirect Fulfillment’s technology platform has the ability to send RedChirp fine-grained, real-time updates on the progress of each shipment. RedChirp’s integration with WineDirect Fulfillment takes advantage of this incredible real-time information feed to allow you to set up automated messages to keep your customers up to date and to minimize returns. Using the integration, you can create automated messages in RedChirp that will be sent when the following events occur in each shipment’s lifecycle:
  • A shipment’s information has been received (a.k.a. label created)
  • A package is available for pickup
  • A package has been picked up
  • A package is out for delivery (remind them someone 21+ needs to sign for the package)
    • This is an amazing way to reduce returns!
  • An unusual event (aka an exception) has occurred
  • A package was delivered
    • You can configure automated messages to be sent a certain amount of time after a delivery has been made, for example, “How are your first sips?” style messages
Because these are RedChirp automated messages, they come with several advantages:
  • The text messages come from the same RedChirp phone number(s) your customers use to text with you already.
  • The text conversation is two-way!
    • If your customer has a question or needs to make a change,they can just text you back .
    • RedChirp will alert the person or people assigned to that phone number.
    • And you can continue the conversation, human to human, in the same thread.
  • Every message sent is visible to your team; it’s part of their existing RedChirp conversation.
  • You can use RedChirp’s extensive tools to customize the contents of your automated messages, add delays, build drips, and more.
    • For example, you could create an automated message to go out three weeks after a package was delivered, asking your customer how they are enjoying their wine and offering a discount on their next order.

​
Are there different RedChirp plans for different sizes and needs?

Wineries can choose the RedChirp plan that fits the size and needs of their business. You’re not locked into anything and can change plans or cancel RedChirp anytime.

​
How will I learn how to use RedChirp?

RedChirp is invested in helping you achieve the full potential of text messaging. The RedChirp team will train your users at launch; unlimited support is always included.

​
How long will it take to get started?

RedChirp sets up new customers on a first-come, first-served basis. 10DLC regulations require every brand to register and pass vetting by the major telephone carriers. RedChirp will handle this process for you and has been able to get all their customers approved. The vetting process typically takes about 10 business days, but it can vary with demand and is outside of RedChirp’s control. The average time between signing up and launching is two weeks. Because of the personal attention given to each customer, signup volume can affect the availability of training/launch times. RedChirp anticipates a waiting list during OND, so sign up early if you’re anxious to begin.
