Which follow-ups should be automated first?
These five, in order of payback:
- Quote follow-up — most quotes die from silence, not rejection. A polite three-touch sequence revives them.
- Appointment reminders — no-shows drop sharply with a day-before and hour-before nudge.
- Review requests — sent automatically after a completed job, while satisfaction is highest.
- Missed-call text-back — an instant “sorry we missed you, how can we help?” keeps the lead warm.
- Rebooking prompts — seasonal and recurring services should invite the customer back on schedule.
