The Hidden Cost of No-Shows

No-shows cost service businesses an average of $62,000 per year. For small businesses, this can mean the difference between profit and loss.

Why Voice Reminders Work Better

While text reminders have a 90% open rate, voice calls have a 96% answer rate and create a stronger commitment to show up. The personal touch of a voice, even if AI-generated, significantly impacts customer behavior.

Optimal Reminder Schedule

  • 48 hours before: Initial confirmation call
  • 24 hours before: Reminder with rescheduling option
  • 2 hours before: Final reminder for same-day impact
