21 Home Service Text Appointment Reminder Examples

Running your own home services company is tough. As a business owner, you wear many hats each day, like marketing, sales, foreman, accountant, and office administrator. What if you could remove some of those hats and spend more time growing your business? With Apptoto’s automated text appointment reminder and online scheduling software for home services businesses, you can remove the administrative task hat and get back to doing the work you love.

Text Reminder Software Saves Time & Stress

Automated reminder software from Apptoto helps you free up time and reduce no-shows and unprepared clients. Ever get to a job site only to find it inaccessible? That wastes time and resources. Your crew spent time traveling to the site and then aren’t able to do their job. How frustrating! With appointment reminders and confirmations, clients get the reminders they need and can be held accountable with cancellation and no-show policies. Not ready for a cancellation policy? Don’t worry. Text messages still help your business. Text reminders have a 30% higher confirmation rate than phone calls and a 150% higher rate than emails.

Customizable text message reminders also help keep you and your customers on the same page regarding their service. For instance, let’s say you’ve scheduled a customer for an outdoor pest control service, but they are expecting a termite inspection. A tailored appointment reminder that includes their scheduled service can help identify and eliminate that confusion before your crew goes onsite.

Fully Integrated with Your Current Calendaring System

Apptoto fully integrates with all your calendars for easy online booking that doesn’t require you to change your current scheduling process. Your clients can book online, directly through you, or you can even manually add appointments to your calendar. Then, Apptoto will extract that information and send out appointment reminders. Fully customizable automated reminders mean your support teams can spend less time managing calendars and more time assisting in-office clients. Easy cancellation options help clients provide adequate notice and allow scheduling staff to refill time slots and avoid costly workflow gaps.
