## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-29 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The honest answer is that "best for agencies" splits into three different questions - what kind of clients you serve determines the pick. Here's who I'd actually name:
> 
> ## If your clients are local/SMB service businesses
> **1. GoHighLevel** - This is the default for agencies in this space, and for good reason. It was built for the multi-client model: every client gets an isolated sub-account with its own data, branding, and workflows, and on the Unlimited plan there's no cap on sub-account count, so your software cost stays flat at 5 clients or 50. It's white-label, so you resell it as your own product. Downside: SMS is one feature in a sprawling all-in-one CRM, so the messaging depth is shallower than a dedicated tool.

> 
> **2. Salesmsg** - Better pick if your clients already live in HubSpot or a real CRM and you want conversational two-way SMS rather than blast campaigns. Commonly recommended for mid-market accounts in the 1K-50K contact range alongside SlickText and Heymarket. ([Salesmessage](https://www.salesmessage.com/blog/best-sms-marketing-s
