Troubleshooting

Problem: Number not appearing in GHL

Check:

1. Twilio properly connected? (Settings → Integrations)
2. Number purchased? (Twilio dashboard)
3. Number capabilities include SMS?
4. Wait 2-5 minutes for sync
5. Refresh GHL page

Problem: SMS not sending

Check:

1. Twilio balance > $0? (Top up if needed)
2. Number assigned to location?
3. Recipient number in correct format? (+48123456789)
4. Geographic permissions enabled? (see below)

Geographic Permissions

Some countries require approval:

Twilio Dashboard → Regulatory Compliance

If sending to Poland, Germany, India, etc.:
1. Submit business information
2. Wait for approval (1-3 days)
3. Then SMS will work

Problem: Can't receive replies

Check:

1. Number capabilities include "SMS" (not just outbound)
2. Webhook configured in Twilio? (auto-done by GHL)
3. Test by sending SMS TO your Twilio number from your phone
4. Check GHL Conversations inbox

Multiple Numbers Strategy

When to use multiple numbers:

✅ High volume (>10k SMS/day) - avoid rate limits
✅ Different brands/locations
✅ Separation: Marketing vs Transactional
✅ Geographic targeting (local presence)

Setup:

Buy additional numbers in Twilio
→ All auto-sync to GHL
→ Assign each to specific location/purpose

Example:
+48 22 123 4567 → Warsaw location (transactional)
+48 12 345 6789 → Krakow location (marketing)

Phone number: $8-15/month (Poland)
No monthly minimums

PER-USE:

Incoming SMS: $0.01/SMS

Security Best Practices

✅ DO:
- Use strong Twilio password
- Enable 2FA on Twilio account
- Store SID/Token securely
- Revoke old API keys if re-generating
- Monitor usage daily (fraud protection)

❌ DON'T:
- Share SID/Token publicly
- Commit credentials to GitHub
- Use same password as other accounts
- Ignore usage spikes (could be hacking)

Advanced: Sub-Accounts (Optional)

For agencies managing multiple clients:

Twilio → Subaccounts → Create

Each client gets:
- Separate billing
- Own numbers
- Isolated usage
- Individual API keys

Connect each sub-account to separate GHL locations
