Booking Reminders That Reduce No-Shows

The right reminder is short, timely and gives the customer an easy way to change their booking.

Reminders work best when they are part of the booking agreement, not an afterthought. Tell customers when they will hear from you and what to do if plans change.

A reminder two days before and another on the morning of the appointment is usually enough for local services.

Make changing easy

A reminder that only says “see you soon” creates more work. Include a link or phone number for rescheduling.

Measure the result

Track no-shows for a month before and after adding reminders. If nothing changes, adjust the timing or wording rather than adding more messages.
