Why you need the SMS Reminders Application

Missed appointments, forgotten orders, not picked up items, and lost customers can affect cashflow and revenue of any business. SMS reminders are a great tool to ensure your customers will not forget about a specific day or task that is important for them and your business.

SMS or text message reminders are automated reminders that are sent to a client or a customer to remind them of an appointment, a payment, to inform about specific recurring task etc.

They are used by businesses to ensure that their customers don’t forget their existing appointments or ones that they need to schedule in the near future.

Use cases

In this section, we want to explain how businesses are using SMS reminders to engage their customers and increase their sales. This will help businesses understand how SMS reminders will help them meet their needs and ensure customers next visit.

SMS reminders are text messages that a business sends to remind customers about anything from a previous visit feedback, appointment reminder, or upcoming delivery.

A digital marketing solution like Fanda can integrate with the Point of Sale software your business already uses to automatically apply and validate digital coupons.

With a service like Fanda your coupons can interact with your customers and can collect data, encourage specific customer action (download app, watch a video, share on Facebook) and send geofencing push notification when customer is near your business location.

Your Order is Ready

Keeping your clients informed about when their order is ready for pick up is important not only for them, but also for your business. Another scenario is when customer forgets to pickup an item previously ordered or left for service / repair.

Appointment reminders:

Sending automated reminders for upcoming appointments is one of the most popular SMS marketing use cases. Seventy-six percent of consumers in a recent survey found it helpful to receive appointment reminders via text.

Text ordering and shopping:

Sometimes, it pays to get creative with your SMS marketing. Allowing customers to purchase and order directly through SMS is one way to eliminate location visit or time spent browsing online.

 

Recurring Orders and Payment reminders

If your customers need to order or buy your products and services on recurring basis, weekly, or monthly, or make timely payments, using SMS reminders is an easy and effective solution.
