# Appointment Reminder Text Templates

No-shows are a memory problem, and texts fix memory problems. These templates cover the full reminder cadence for clinics, salons, home services, fitness, and anyone who books time. Pair them with the timing playbook in our appointment reminder guide.

Merge fields like {first\_name} fill in automatically per recipient when you send with Quick Send Business. Swap the bracketed placeholders for your details.

## The core cadence

### Booking confirmation

Copy

{business\_name}: You're booked, {first\_name}! {service} on {date} at {time} with {provider}. We'll text a reminder the day before. Reply R to reschedule, STOP to opt out.

Send immediately at booking. It doubles as your texting opt-in confirmation.

### 24-hour reminder

Copy

Hi {first\_name}, reminder from {business\_name}: {service} tomorrow at {time} with {provider}. Reply C to confirm or R to reschedule.

### Day-of nudge

Copy

See you soon, {first\_name}! Your {service} is today at {time}. {parking\_or\_arrival\_note} Running late? Reply here.

### Prep instructions

Copy

{first\_name}, before your {service} on {date}: {prep\_instructions}. Questions? Reply here and we'll help.

## Changes and recovery

### Reschedule response

Copy

No problem, {first\_name}. Openings for {service}: {option\_1}, {option\_2}, or {option\_3}. Reply 1, 2, or 3 to grab one.

Offering numbered options turns a reschedule into a two-second reply.

### No-show follow-up

Copy

Hi {first\_name}, we missed you today at {business\_name}. Life happens! Reply BOOK and we'll find you a new time for your {service}.

Send within the hour, warm and blame-free. It recovers a surprising share of no-shows.

### Waitlist opening

Copy

{first\_name}, a {service} slot just opened {date} at {time} with {provider}. Want it? First reply gets it. Reply YES to claim.

### Running behind notice

Copy

{business\_name} here. {provider} is running about {minutes} min behind today. Your {time} appointment is now around {new\_time}. Thanks for your patience!

## After the visit

### Thank you + review ask

Copy

Thanks for coming in, {first\_name}! If we earned it, a quick review means the world to a small business: {review\_link}. See you next time!

### Rebooking recall

Copy

Hi {first\_name}, it's been {interval} since your last {service} at {business\_name}. Time for the next one? Reply BOOK or schedule here: {link}

Recall messages are marketing; make sure you hold written consent, not just booking consent.

### Payment reminder

Copy

{business\_name}: Hi {first\_name}, a friendly reminder of your {amount} balance from {date}. Pay securely here: {link}. Questions? Reply and we'll sort it out.
