Introduction: Why Real-Time Visibility Matters
In today’s fast-paced communication landscape, speed isn’t just a competitive advantage — it’s a necessity. Kenyan businesses, from fintech startups to SACCOs and FMCG brands, rely on instant coordination across teams to ensure every campaign hits the mark.
When you’re sending out thousands of messages — whether they’re marketing campaigns, customer alerts, or transactional updates — it’s critical that your team can see what’s happening as it happens.
That’s where SMSLeopard’s real-time campaign alerts and live dashboards come in. With SMSLeopard, your marketing, sales, and operations teams can track performance, get automatic alerts, and make instant adjustments — all within one unified platform built for Kenyan businesses.
1. What Are Real-Time Campaign Alerts?
Real-time campaign alerts are instant notifications that keep your team informed about campaign activity the moment it happens.
With SMSLeopard, you can set up alerts to notify your team when: ✅ A campaign starts or completes ✅ Delivery or bounce rates hit specific thresholds ✅ Certain keywords trigger high responses (e.g., “BUY”, “STOP”, “JOIN”) ✅ Bulk SMS costs reach budget limits ✅ Engagement metrics spike or drop unexpectedly
These alerts are sent directly to your dashboard, email, or WhatsApp (via ChatSasa) — ensuring your team always stays in sync.
2. Why Team Collaboration Depends on Real-Time Insights
Collaboration is only as good as the information your team has access to. Traditional campaign reporting models — where you wait hours or even days for a summary — don’t cut it anymore.
SMSLeopard’s real-time campaign alerts give teams the power to:
Respond instantly to customer trends (e.g., adjust timing or content mid-campaign).
Reduce downtime by identifying delivery issues as they occur.
Coordinate faster between marketing, sales, and customer support teams.
Make data-driven decisions while campaigns are still active.
In essence, your campaigns evolve from static broadcasts to dynamic conversations that respond to live performance data.
3. How SMSLeopard’s Live Dashboard Enhances Collaboration
The SMSLeopard live campaign dashboard gives a 360° view of your communication performance in real time.
Here’s what your team gains:
Instant Data Visualization
See delivery rates, engagement metrics, and response trends update second-by-second. Visual graphs and color-coded indicators (green for success, red for action needed) help your team understand performance at a glance.
Shared Visibility
Every authorized user — from marketing managers to customer service reps — can access the same live data. This transparency ensures everyone operates from a single source of truth.
Actionable Alerts
Customize alert rules (e.g., “Notify me if delivery rate drops below 85%” or “Ping the sales team if keyword ‘ORDER’ exceeds 200 replies”). You decide what triggers matter most — SMSLeopard does the monitoring for you.
Integrated Team Communication
Connect ChatSasa to turn campaign alerts into real-time team chats or group discussions. Your team can reply to alerts, tag members, and take coordinated action — without leaving the platform.
4. Setting Up Real-Time Campaign Alerts in SMSLeopard
You can activate real-time campaign alerts in a few simple steps:
1️⃣ Log in to your SMSLeopard account. 2️⃣ Navigate to Campaigns → Alerts & Notifications. 3️⃣ Choose your preferred notification channels (dashboard, email, WhatsApp). 4️⃣ Set alert conditions — delivery thresholds, response rates, costs, or keyword triggers. 5️⃣ Add your team members’ contact details or assign roles (view-only, editor, admin). 6️⃣ Save and activate.

Assign alert ownership. Each alert should have a responsible contact — marketing lead, IT support, or operations manager.

Train your team. Ensure everyone understands the alert types, meanings, and response protocols.
