The method comprises automatically generating campaign message flow entries, wherein each campaign message flow entry corresponds to an interaction between a server and a subscriber. The method comprises displaying the campaign message flow entries to the customer.

Claims (41)

1 . A method for generating a campaign message flow, comprising:

responsive to a customer request, initiating a campaign, wherein the campaign includes interacting with a subscriber via messages;

responsive to receiving customer-inputted parameters defining the campaign, generating campaign message flow entries in substantially real time from the customer-inputted parameters, wherein each campaign message flow entry corresponds to an interaction with the subscriber;

displaying each campaign message flow entry to the customer when generated.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

pre-populating the parameters and the campaign message flow from a template campaign.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing the parameters in an accessible storage medium.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

executing the campaign responsive to a subscriber request, wherein subscriber inputs and server outputs correspond to the campaign message flow.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a campaign message flow entry is at least one of: subscriber-inputted keywords, subscriber-inputted short numbers, server-outputted menus, and server-outputted confirmations.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the parameters include at least one of: a keyword, opt-in message, scheduling, content to be sent, confirmation message, menu items, and pointers to other sub-words.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the customer request and parameters are received via a web interface and the campaign message flow is displayed via the web interface.

8 . A system for generating a campaign message flow, comprising:

a server in communication with a client over a network, the server configured to

responsive to a customer request, initiate a campaign, wherein the campaign includes interacting with subscribers via messages,

receive customer-inputted parameters defining the campaign,

automatically generate campaign message flow entries, wherein each campaign message flow entry corresponds to an interaction between a server and a subscriber,

display the campaign message flow entries to the customer.

9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the server is further configured to

pre-populate the parameters and the campaign message flow from a template campaign.

10 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the server is further configured to

store the parameters in an accessible storage medium.

11 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the server is further configured to

execute the campaign responsive to a subscriber request, wherein subscriber inputs and server outputs correspond to the campaign message flow.

12 . The system of claim 8 , wherein a campaign message flow entry is at least one of: subscriber-inputted keywords, subscriber-inputted short numbers, server-outputted menus, and server-outputted confirmations.

13 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the parameters include at least one of: a keyword, opt-in message, scheduling, content to be sent, confirmation message, menu items, and pointers to other sub-words.

14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the customer request and parameters are received via a web interface and the campaign message flow is displayed via the web interface.

15 . A computer-readable medium including instructions adapted to execute a method for generating a campaign message flow, the method comprising:

responsive to a customer request, initiating a campaign, wherein the campaign includes interacting with subscribers via messages;

receiving customer-inputted parameters defining the campaign;

automatically generating campaign message flow entries, wherein each campaign message flow entry corresponds to an interaction between a server and a subscriber;

displaying the campaign message flow entries to the customer.

16 . The medium of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

pre-populating the parameters and the campaign message flow from a template campaign.

17 . The medium of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

storing the parameters in an accessible storage medium.

18 . The medium of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

executing the campaign responsive to a subscriber request, wherein subscriber inputs and server outputs correspond to the campaign message flow.

19 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein a campaign message flow entry is at least one of: subscriber-inputted keywords, subscriber-inputted short numbers, server-outputted menus, and server-outputted confirmations.

20 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the parameters include at least one of: a keyword, opt-in message, scheduling, content to be sent, confirmation message, menu items, and pointers to other sub-words and the customer request and parameters are received via a web interface and the campaign message flow is displayed via the web interface.
