Stop No Shows With Appointment Reminders

You spend a great deal of time and money acquiring new clients and securing appointment opportunities. If a client misses an appointment, this can cost you thousands of dollars in the long term.

Having an effective strategy to minimize and reduce appointment no shows is critical. Outlined below are three ways you can effectively implement this strategy.

Reminder Calls

If you are looking for a professional and personal approach to deliver reminder calls to your clients using reminder calls is the most effective option. You, your staff or receptionist can call your clients to personally remind them of their upcoming appointment. This is a great way to deliver the reminder if you are looking for the most personal approach.

Reminder E-Mails

Using e-mail is an easy and effective way of reminding clients of their appointments. If you utilize an online appointment scheduling system, this feature may exist within that system. E-mail reminders can usually be scheduled to send 1 day up to several weeks prior to the appointment.

Reminder SMS Text Messages

Like e-mails, using SMS (Short Message Service) text message reminders is a quick and automated way of reminding clients of their appointment. The SMS message can be scheduled to send several days before the appointment. The message is then sent directly to the recipient's mobile device.
