Salesmate strongly encourages E.164 phone number formatting for all phone numbers both in the ‘to’ and ‘from’ fields. This is an internationally-recognized standard phone number format that will help to ensure deliverability of calls and SMS messages across the globe.Instead of reaching out from Salesmate using an International Call Prefix like 011, simply use an E.164 formatted phone number.
