[SMS automated workflows](https://www.trumpia.com/product/automation/automated-workflows) are one of the most beneficial tools that [Trumpia’s](http://trumpia.com/) software offers.  An automated workflow is a campaign that responds to customers without you having to do anything. It helps run your campaign on autopilot without having to create long and complicated lists of code. Our software at Trumpia is intuitively designed to save you time and interact with customers without any manual intervention. Overall, SMS automated workflows allow the right messages to be sent in real time or for certain responses to happen when a certain action gets triggered. How do SMS workflows work? First, you need to set a response whenever a subscriber or contact performs a certain action. The triggers can include a subscriber: - Texting your [keyword](https://www.trumpia.com/product/core-features/mobile-keywords) - Clicking links in your SMS message - Responding to your text - Completing a [survey](https://www.trumpia.com/sms-survey) Once you determine what will trigger a response, you can create a pre-saved template of a message that will send whenever a trigger is set off. This template can include a simple welcome message, question, link, and more.  **Why are automated SMS workflows helpful? ** Automated workflows offer [valuable data that you can capture](https://www.trumpia.com/product/core-features/data-capture) about your customers. What kind of data are you able to collect? You are able to analyze the [click rates](https://www.trumpia.com/product/automation/tracking) of certain messages. Or see how they answer a certain question. Or, you can gain direct data about your contacts depending on the question you ask. All of this can be used to adjust your campaign and ensure that you are maximizing your marketing strategies.  Not convinced?
