Hey team, has anyone figured out a workaround for GHL SMS in New Zealand?

I have a friend in New Zealand whose interested in DR using SMS but I'm not seeing how that's possible using Twilio or LeadConnector but I'm a newbie. I'm I missing something or is there no way to start an SMS campaign and do outbound and get inbound texts in NZ? If this isn't possible with Twilio or LC - will it work if he gives me a mobile number to use? Could I then upload that and get stats with GHL?

Hi, anyone wanting to sell sub-accounts? I am looking to buy a few. Let me know, thanks
