Sending Images & Media

Learn how to send images to leads, what file types are supported, and best practices for using images in business conversations.

Sending Images to Leads

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. You can send images to leads directly from SalesPartner.

Why send images? - Show your work — Photos of completed projects, products, or locations - Share documents — Screenshots of quotes, forms, or instructions - Clarify details — Visual explanations that text can't capture - Build trust — Real photos create connection and credibility

Images go out via MMS (picture messaging) to the lead's phone, just like texting a photo from your personal phone.

Uploading Images

To send an image with your message:

1. Open the conversation with your lead 2. Tap the + button to open the message actions menu 3. Select the image option 4. Choose an image from your device 5. The image uploads and shows a preview 6. Type your message (optional—you can send image alone) 7. Tap Send

What you'll see: - A preview of your selected image appears above the message input - An X button lets you remove the image if you change your mind - A loading indicator shows while the image uploads - Once uploaded, you're ready to send

One image at a time: Currently, you can send one image per message. For multiple images, send them in separate messages.

Supported File Types

SalesPartner accepts these image formats:

Supported: - JPEG/JPG — Standard photos from your phone or camera - PNG — Screenshots and images with transparency - GIF — Animated images (use sparingly in business) - WebP — Modern web format with good compression

File size limit: 5MB maximum

Not supported: - PDF documents (not an image format) - Videos (image only, no video attachments) - Other document types (Word, Excel, etc.)

Pro tip: Most phone photos are JPEG and well under 5MB. You'll rarely hit the size limit with normal images.

Viewing Images in Conversations

Images appear in the conversation just like regular messages.

What you see: - Thumbnail of the image in the message thread - Tap to view full size - Date and time sent - Delivery status (sent, delivered)

What leads see: - The image arrives as a picture message (MMS) - They can tap to view, save, or share - Works on any smartphone that supports picture messaging

Image history: All images you send stay in the conversation history. You can scroll back to see what you've shared before.

Media Gallery

Contact profiles may include a media gallery showing all images exchanged in conversations with that contact.

The gallery shows: - Images you've sent - Images the lead has sent - Date each image was shared

Using the gallery: - Quick way to find a specific image - Review what's been shared without scrolling through the whole conversation - Verify what visual information the lead has received

Not all conversations have galleries: The gallery feature depends on your account setup. Check with your administrator if you don't see it.

Best Practices for Business Images

Send relevant images — Every image should serve a purpose. Random or irrelevant photos waste the lead's time and look unprofessional.

Quality matters — Blurry, dark, or poorly framed photos reflect badly on your business. Take a moment to get a good shot.

Respect file size — Large images take longer to send and receive. The 5MB limit helps, but smaller is often better for faster delivery.

Consider the context — An image of a completed project is great for a prospect. The same image might be inappropriate for a complaint resolution.

Add context in text — Don't just send an image alone. Add a brief message: "Here's the product you asked about" or "This is what the finished result looks like."

Be professional — Only send images you'd be comfortable having in a business record. Everything you share is logged in the conversation history.

Don't overdo it — One or two well-chosen images are more effective than flooding someone with photos. Quality over quantity.
