Maids and others in the Cleaning service industry love the convenience of text appointment reminders for when they're in a hurry. Life in the cleaning business can seem like one long string of appointments, from dealing with clients to juggling your employees - even last minute cleaning jobs! These days it seems there are always more things that need doing. Setting up appointment reminders makes sure there are no delays to get the job done on time by letting the clients know you're coming! Also great for when you are running late or need to reschedule.

2. “Hey Mr. Rogers, Just wanted you to know that I am just finishing up a job in a neighborhood near you and I should be there in 10 minutes.”

Whether it's just yourself or you have a bunch of employees, the business is constantly on-the move! Maids are using TxtSquad to communicate with their customers in new ways. For instance by letting people know that you’re close by and giving accurate arrival times for the next job!

3. “Get $20 off your next cleaning if you book before 11/25/22. Book here: https://txtsquad.io/url/B54mu7

Sending exclusive coupons to your clientele is a great way to drive customers to re-engage customers new and old. It will help increase your workload during slow downs and help get new customers. It’s a win-win!

4. “Hi Steve, just getting back to you with your property cleaning quote. It will come to $500 after tax. Let me know and we can book a time. Thanks!”

When a client needs cleaning services, they want to get a quote for the job as soon as possible. Getting the pricing done for the work translates to getting the job and having someone come out as soon as they are available! The quicker the better!

5. “Hi Gene, due to the blizzard I won’t be able to come to your house for the scheduled cleaning. Sorry for the inconvenience.Please reschedule here: https://txtsquad.io/url/B54mu7.”

The cleaning business can be temperamental sometimes. Storms, power outages and last minute changes can leave your customers empty handed when they are expecting their favorite maid that day. Text messages can be sent to your subscribers to give them a heads up that you won't be in today and help let them down easily so that there is no delay in rescheduling their next appointment.
