SMS reminders are a fantastic way to prevent no-shows, and here we'll tell you how you can customise this feature!


Currently, there is a choice of 2 standard text reminders that go to your clients 24, 48 or 72 hours before their appointment.

These are:

  • Hi [Client Name], looking forward to your appointment at [Business Name] at 10.15AM on Wed 22 Sep. Reply Y to confirm or call [business phone number] to cancel

OR

  • Hi [Client Name], looking forward to your appointment at [Business Name] at 10.15AM on Wed 22 Sep. Reply Y to confirm or N to cancel

Choose your preference in Clients, notifications & Marketing > Reminders.


What else can I customise?

1. Name

You can change whether the text reminder says hi to your client's full name or just their first name by ensuring you put your client's first name in the second name field in their client profile.

2. Timing

You can set the reminders to go 24, 48 or 72 hours before.

This can be set in Clients, notifications & Marketing > Reminders

3. Additional Information

Should you wish to communicate additional info such as:

  • Cancellation Policy

  • Parking information

  • Consultation forms

Then you can use our Bolt On. Please note the standard reminder is included in your subscription but SMS Bolt Ons are charged at 1 credit per SMS used.

This can be set in Clients, notifications & Marketing > Reminders. For more information please check out the help article
