Contact Info Configuration
Set up what happens when customers share their phone number or email address. You can send them confirmation messages and trigger your integrations automatically.
Global or Custom: Use the same contact info handling for your whole business, or set up different responses for each source (Yelp, Thumbtack, etc.).
How It Works
When customers share their contact details, NZ Leads can:
- Send them a confirmation message
- Trigger your CRM and notification integrations
- Use different messages for business hours vs. after hours
- Handle phone numbers and email addresses separately
Phone Number Settings
When Phone Number Received
Send message to customer
- Turn this on to send a confirmation when they share their phone number
- Great for letting them know you got their info and will call soon
Trigger Integrations
- Automatically sends their info to your CRM, Slack, SMS notifications, etc.
Email Address Settings
When Email Received
Send message to customer
- Confirm you received their email address
Trigger Integrations
- Pushes their email to all your connected systems
- Keeps everything in sync automatically
Confirmation Message Options
Always Send (Even Mid-Conversation)
When to turn this on:
- You want confirmation every time they share contact info
- Even if you’re already chatting back and forth
When to leave it off:
- Only send confirmation if the business hasn’t responded to the customer yet
- Avoid repetitive messages during ongoing conversations
Dependency: This option only works if you’ve enabled “Send message to customer” for either phone or email.
Message Templates
Business Hours Message
Write what customers see when they share contact info during your normal business hours.
Good examples:
Got your number! I'll give you a call within the next hour to discuss your project.
Thanks,
Mike
(555) 123-4567
Perfect! I have your info and will call you this afternoon with a quote.
Looking forward to working with you!
After Hours Message
Set up a different message for when they contact you outside business hours.
Good examples:
Thanks for your number! I'm currently out of the office but will call you first thing tomorrow morning.
Have a great evening!
Mike
Got it! I'll give you a call tomorrow to discuss your project. Thanks for reaching out!

Integration Benefits
When you enable “Trigger Integrations”, their contact info automatically goes to:
- CRM systems (HubSpot, PipeDrive, etc.)
- Team notifications (Slack, SMS)
- Project management (Workiz, Housecall Pro)
- Marketing automation (GoHighLevel, Zapier)
This saves you from manual data entry and ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
Common Scenarios
Scenario 1: First-Time Inquiry
Customer: “Hi, I need a quote for kitchen renovation. My number is 555-123-4567” → System sends confirmation message → Triggers all integrations → You get notified with their info
Scenario 2: Mid-Conversation Contact Share
You: “What’s the best number to reach you?” Customer: “555-123-4567” → If “Always send” is on: Sends confirmation → If “Always send” is off: No confirmation (avoids redundancy) → Still triggers integrations
Scenario 3: After Hours Contact
Customer shares info at 9 PM → Sends after-hours message with timeline → Triggers integrations
Next: Integration Settings → | Back to Follow-ups → | Back to Messaging Settings →
