Introduction

Purpose

This help document will help you better understand why your message may not have been delivered and what you can do about it. While message sending is typically seamless in GroupTrack CRM, platform changes or delays can occasionally cause issues that interrupt automations or manual sending.


Scope

This guide applies to all GroupTrack CRM users who send messages—whether manually or using the bulk messaging feature—on any supported platform (Facebook, Instagram, etc.).


What This Message Failure Means

What this means:

GroupTrack tried to send your message—but couldn’t find a message box to type it into.This usually happens when:

  • The social media platform hasn’t fully loaded the chat window yet
  • There’s no “Message” button available for that contact
  • The social media platform is temporarily blocking message input (yep, they do that sometimes)

Translation:

We looked for a place to paste your message... and social media said, “Not today.”

What you can do:

✅ Open that contact’s profile manually and click “Message”, load the template and then click copy and go to chat

✅ Try sending the first message manually (this often helps “wake up” the chat)


Why This Process is Important

Understanding what caused a message to fail ensures you can take appropriate steps to follow up with your leads and avoid losing potential sales opportunities. Even when tech gets a little glitchy, GroupTrack is designed to give you full visibility and easy solutions to keep your pipeline moving forward.
