Frequently asked questions
When should salons and spas send this?
The day before, or the morning of, while there is still time to refill the slot if they cancel.
Can I send the same text to everyone?
Send it one to one, with that person’s details. A group message exposes everyone’s number.
Is this the same as a promotion?
No. A reminder is about a booking they already made. An offer to people who might buy is a marketing message, and only goes to people who opted in.
Final thoughts
A short WhatsApp reminder salons and spas can send so the appointment, booking or pickup actually happens.
