Overview
This feature allows you to automate these 2 crucial processes (Quote & Estimate Visits and Site Visits) in your workflow. It will help you improve your relationship with your customer by ensuring a streamlined and efficient communication channel.
You can automatically send reminder SMS messages for Quotes and Estimates, Site Visits, or both!
When to use it
You can remind your customer of scheduled Quotes/Estimates visits you've sent them or that you're heading over with automatic SMS schedule reminders. This can be used at any point and can also be turned off at the job level if you don't want this process in place for a certain job.
