SMS appointment reminders that cut no-shows
A short text the day before is the simplest way to stop appointments being forgotten. People read their texts, usually within minutes.
Schedule it once
Write the reminder when the booking is made and set it to go the day before. You can cancel it any time before it sends.
Send from your number
Use your own mobile as the sender so clients can call or text you back to reschedule.
Tomorrow's list in one go
Paste tomorrow's numbers or keep a group, then send one reminder to everyone at once.
See what was delivered
Your history shows each reminder's delivery status, so you know who got it.
