SMS Reminder System
for Service Businesses
Bring customers back automatically - SMS reminders for any service business: pet groomers, mobile services, cleaners, tutors, and more. Remindlo works on top of the calendar, diary, or spreadsheet you already use, with no data entry.
No credit card required • Setup in 2 minutes • Cancel anytime
Customers Forget, Competitors Win
Great service doesn't guarantee return visits. Customers get busy and forget - then book whoever's available when they finally remember.
25-40% Lapse Rate
Happy customers simply forget to rebook. Life gets busy, and weeks slip by without them thinking about your service.
£30-100 Per Missed Booking
Empty slots mean lost revenue. Each missed appointment is money that could have been in your pocket.
Manual Follow-ups Don't Scale
Calling or texting each customer individually takes hours. Time you should be spending on actual work.

Automatic Reminders That Fill Your Diary
