SMS Appointment Reminders: automatic texts before every booking
Customers forget appointments. Puhebotti doesn't. Send automatic SMS reminders before every booking — fewer no-shows, more revenue.
Requires:
No-shows are expensive. Reminders are not.
Automatic reminders keep your calendar full and your workday on track. A single extra filled appointment more than covers the monthly cost of the service.
Fully automatic, no manual work
The text message is sent automatically based on the time in Maxtech's calendar. You don't have to remember a thing — as long as the appointment is booked in Maxtech, the reminder takes care of itself.
Fewer no-shows
A timely reminder prompts the customer. Cancellations come in earlier, giving you time to fill the slot with another customer.
Better customer experience
Customers appreciate the reminder — it signals that you value their time. A small gesture with a big impact on satisfaction.
Four steps, fully automatic
The chain runs through the Maxtech booking system.
The appointment is in Maxtech's calendar
The customer's appointment time and phone number are in the Maxtech booking calendar, regardless of how the appointment was booked.
Reminder is sent automatically
SMS Reminders fetches the time and number directly from the calendar. At the configured time — e.g. 24 h or 2 h before — a text message is sent to the customer's phone in your business's name.
Customer confirms or cancels
The message can include cancellation instructions. You're notified immediately, leaving you time to fill the freed slot.
Calendar stays full
No-shows decrease and freed slots are filled in time. Business runs without surprises.
Especially valuable in appointment-based businesses
Hair salons and barbers
A filled chair is revenue. An empty chair is a loss. Reminders keep the calendar full.
Medical and dental practices
Appointment slots are expensive. A reminder ensures the patient shows up.
Auto repair shops
Service bookings are made weeks in advance. A reminder keeps the customer informed.
Veterinary clinics
Pet owners remember better with a direct text reminder to their phone.
Beauty salons and massage therapists
Bookings fill up a week in advance. A reminder ensures the customer arrives as planned.
Physiotherapy and wellness
Treatment sessions are long and valuable. Even one filled cancellation slot covers the reminder cost many times over.
The numbers say it all
Automatic SMS reminders are one of the most cost-effective ways to improve customer service and grow revenue.
