Reminders & call backs

Fewer no-shows, no forgotten calls.

About a day before each visit booked ahead, the customer gets a reminder text. C confirms it; R asks to reschedule and puts them on your call-back list. Calls the receptionist can't book land on the same list.

Sound familiar?

Wasted trips and lost callers add up.

I drive out and nobody's home.

Customers confirm by text the day before.

People who need to reschedule just don't show.

Reply R and they're on your call-back list.

Messages get lost on sticky notes.

Every call back is in one list, and you get a text.

Reminders

A text a day ahead, answered in one letter

Sent once per job, about a day before the visit, from your business name, to customers who agreed to texts.

  • C to confirm: a note is added to the job.
  • R to reschedule: a call back is created and you get a text.
  • Skipped for jobs booked in the last 12 hours and visits less than two hours away.
Call backs

When the receptionist can't book, it takes a message

No open times, an address outside your area, a caller who wants a person or a question it can't answer: it takes their details and adds a call back.

  • A text to you as the call ends.
  • The reason on every call back.
  • Make a job or mark it done from the list.

Questions

Frequently asked

Can I turn reminders off?

Yes, in Settings.

Do customers who opted out get reminders?

No. Anyone who replied STOP, or didn't agree to texts when booking online, isn't texted.

When exactly is the reminder sent?

About a day before the visit, checked every hour. Jobs booked in the last 12 hours and visits less than two hours away don't get one, so a visit booked less than about 14 hours ahead has only its confirmation.

Does the receptionist call people back?

No. It adds a call back for you or your team to return, and texts you the details.
