MessageUs - Text message local businesses

Hey there Product Hunt! We've built MessageUs as a central nervous system for businesses to stay connected and transact with their customers through any messaging channel. Would love to hear your feedback, thanks!

Cool stuff. Local business communication is a huge productivity blocker for me. I like that this could alleviate that pain but also avoid the high premiums of other "concierge" chat apps . Congrats on the launch!

Wait, so RealTalk rebranded to MessageUs?

So, it is like Intercom for brick and mortar businesses with call centre/response assistance?

This looks really promising. This may be just what the doctor ordered to assist customers/businesses in communicating and hopefully eliminating the hassles of connecting. Definitely will keep my eye on this one. Great job!

Great idea. Do you charge transaction fees (on top of the payment gateway fees) or monthly fees? Or both?

Just an update: website is not loading, may be it couldn't handle PH traffic.:P I'd love to see it when its working...good luck..:)

How to do you plan to onboard so many local businesses? I just messaged 2 via the MessageUs mobile app and got 2 auto-responses that neither had claimed their profile. Then I got messages from those businesses asking follow up questions... Are local businesses on the app or is there a support person acting as an in between? It seems a little shady to say a businesses isn't onboarded and then get a message from them.
