Appointment Scheduling Text Message Templates
More appointments get scheduled through text messaging.
That’s why we’re giving you these text message templates to jumpstart how your team sets, confirms, and keeps appointments on the books.
Note that these text templates are intended to be examples you use to create your own. We do not recommend directly copying and pasting them into Text Request's Templates feature, without first editing them and their [brackets] to fit your needs. These [brackets] will not automatically pull custom info and are only meant to be placeholder examples.

2. Appointment Reminder Message Templates to Eliminate No-Shows
No-shows are the enemy, but SMS appointment reminders can help you defeat them. Especially when you include a link for customers to reschedule if something pops up at the last second.
Sharing your business's no-show rates or no-show policies within those texts can gently encourage customers to avoid missed appointments. Try some of these appointment SMS examples:
Template 5: “Thanks for sending your appointment confirmation! Use [link] if you need to reschedule for any reason."
Template 6: “Your appointment is at [time] today. Open [link] for more information on [service] and our no-show policy.”
Template 7: “[Name], just a friendly reminder that your appointment is at [time] today. Let us know if you can still make it.”
3. SMS Meeting Reminders to Keep More Sales Calls

Template 9: “Hey [Name], it was great talking to you today! Looking forward to touching base next week.”
Template 10: “Hi [Name], do you have time today to discuss options in regards to [topic]? It shouldn’t take more than [x] minutes. Thanks!”
