Sinch (Sinch AB (publ) – XSTO: SINCH), a pioneer in global communication through its Customer Communications Cloud, has launched the Sinch Omnichannel Connector on Salesforce AppExchange. This innovative solution enhances conversational marketing and customer experiences for Salesforce Marketing Cloud customers by offering advanced one-way and two-way messaging capabilities. The solution is now available on Salesforce AppExchange.

The Sinch Omnichannel Connector seamlessly integrates with the Salesforce ecosystem, enabling businesses to elevate their marketing strategies by reaching and engaging customers across their preferred channels. This new offering expands the features of Salesforce Marketing Cloud, providing a comprehensive suite of omnichannel messaging capabilities. Businesses can now connect with customers through one-way and two-way messaging across 13 diverse channels, including RCS, Kakao Talk, Viber, and Instagram.

“With the Sinch Omnichannel Connector, businesses can enhance their customer communications, personalize engagements, and maximize the return on their marketing investments,” said Jonathan Campbell, Senior Director, Messaging Products at Sinch. “Salesforce Marketing Cloud users can now leverage a broader spectrum of messaging channels through Sinch, beyond those directly supported by Salesforce, to optimize their marketing strategies and elevate customer engagement.”

To get started, Salesforce Marketing Cloud users need an existing account and can onboard the Conversation API through the Sinch Dashboard. From there, they can easily activate the channels of their choice, tailoring their messaging strategy to suit their unique business needs.

Sinch has partnered with Salesforce since 2014, when Salesforce expanded its SMS offering into international markets. Sinch is a strategic supplier for Salesforce’s global SMS delivery, providing enterprise-grade messaging solutions that support Salesforce and its global customer base.
