SMS NOTIFICATIONS

WordPress Contact Forms SMS Notifications

Forms email you. By the time you check, the lead is cold. Dash Dolphin texts your phone in 5 seconds.

THE 5-MINUTE PROBLEM

WordPress Contact Forms forms email you. That's why leads go cold.

Calling a new lead within 5 minutes is the difference between closing 9 out of 10 and closing 1 out of 100. Email makes 5 minutes nearly impossible. A text in 5 seconds makes it routine.

HOW IT WORKS

Text in 5 seconds. Call back in 5 minutes.

Instant alert

Form submission fires a text to the closer’s phone in 5 seconds. No checking email. No missed leads.

📞

Call routing

Different forms ring different people. Round-robin, first-to-claim, or by service type. Whoever’s on shift gets the lead.

🛡️

Spam filter

Bots and junk get filtered before they reach your phone. Your team only sees real customers.

🛡️

📅

Scheduling

After-hours coverage, weekends, on-call rotations. Set the rules once and Dash Dolphin handles who gets pinged when.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common questions

Yes. Self-hosted WordPress does not come with a contact form, so you add one through a plugin such as WPForms, Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, or Fluent Forms. Each of those plugins sends a notification email on submission. Forward that email to your Dash Dolphin inbox and you will get an SMS in 5 seconds.
In your WordPress admin dashboard, go to Plugins and look for an active plugin with “Form” in its name. Common ones include WPForms, Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, Fluent Forms, Ninja Forms, and Formidable Forms. Once you know which plugin you have, the setup is the same across all of them: find the notification email settings and add your Dash Dolphin inbox address.
Self-hosted WordPress (wordpress.org) gives you full control over plugins, so you can install and configure any form plugin. WordPress.com’s free and lower-paid plans have restricted plugin access, but WordPress.com sites have a built-in form through the Jetpack Form Block. The Jetpack Form Block sends email notifications to the site owner, which you can redirect to your Dash Dolphin inbox.
No plugin, script, or code is installed on your WordPress site. Dash Dolphin only reads the outgoing notification emails that your form plugin sends. Your WordPress installation is not modified in any way.
Yes. Each form plugin sends its own notification emails. You can add your Dash Dolphin inbox address to the notification settings of each plugin independently. You will then receive SMS alerts for submissions from all of those forms.
Yes, it can. WordPress uses wp_mail by default, which depends on your hosting server’s outbound email configuration. If notification emails do not arrive reliably, your Dash Dolphin SMS alerts will also be unreliable. Installing a free SMTP plugin such as WP Mail SMTP and connecting it to a mail service like Gmail, Mailgun, or SendGrid makes outbound notification emails consistently reliable.
Yes, a 14-day free trial is available. Most WordPress site owners have a form plugin already installed and sending notification emails, so setup typically takes a few minutes and you can start testing the SMS alerts the same day.
Your Dash Dolphin account stays the same, but you will need to configure notification emails in the new platform and point them to your Dash Dolphin inbox. The form plugin settings on your old WordPress site will no longer apply once you migrate. Each platform has its own way of setting notification email recipients, and the Dash Dolphin connection is just updating that recipient address.

Your next customer is filling out your form right now.

The only question is whether you’ll know in 5 seconds, or 5 hours.
