SMS for Detailing Services
Win back past customers with reply-to-book offers, confirm bookings and deposits, and send reminders so no one forgets their slot.
From win-back offers to booking reminders
Detailing is repeat business, but only if customers remember to rebook. Australian detailers use Mobile Message to text past customers a reason to come back, confirm the booking and deposit the moment it's made, and send a reminder the day before so nobody forgets, whether you detail in the shop or drive out to them.
It all runs from 1.6¢ per message, with no monthly fees or contracts, just prepaid credits. Send under your business name, let customers reply BOOK or YES to lock in a slot straight into your shared inbox, and connect your booking software or Facebook lead forms with our API so new enquiries reach you the second they land.
Win-back campaigns to past customers
Text your customer list a limited-time discount to rebook, like 10-15% off if they book within two weeks, with a simple reply to secure the spot.
Seasonal package offers
Promote paint protection, wraps and bundle deals, like a free interior clean with a full wrap, to drive bookings in quieter months.
Booking and deposit confirmations
Confirm the service, date, time and deposit paid the moment someone books, so there's no confusion about what's owed.
Appointment reminders
Send a reminder the day before, with the address if you're coming to them, to cut down on no-shows.
Instant lead alerts
Get a text the second a Facebook or website enquiry comes in, so you can call back while they're still interested.
