By using these text reminders, you can help ensure that your clients have a positive experience at your tattoo shop and feel confident about their tattoos. Good luck! With an automated system like GoReminders, you can save time, reduce no-shows, and ensure that your schedule is filled with paying clients who will show up on time.
With GoReminders, it's very simple. They have an option where you can remind the clients twice. I found that this has been saving me a lot of time waiting for them to show up. This gives them an option to respond to the confirmation that they have an appointment coming up. And it gives you the ease of mind that they will be there. I recommend it to all my tattoo friends out there!
We definitely had our fair share of no-shows and unfortunately, with a service industry like ours and also dealing with custom designs and jewelry settings, and stuff like that, it is important that people are showing up to their appointments. We might’ve had 10 no-shows in a week, and GoReminders brought that down 80% to 90%—and it's created some other protocols in terms of how we are able to deal with the no-show clients.
I just love everything about it! It's simple, easy to use, and all of my employees at the shop want to use it as well. GoReminders is definitely great in helping with no-shows and cancellations because we're able to send our clients two different messages. If someone needs to reschedule or cancel, they will just get that text and then be able to resolve that issue really quickly. In the end, I feel like it helped us to get really good and positive Google reviews from our clients because we have a nice system and clients like that organization.
A few moments of my time and my clients get automatic reminders. Saves me time and they’ve never had that kind of service at a tattoo shop. My clients always ask “are you gonna send me a reminder for my next appointment?” Not kidding, they’re impressed as much as I am!
