What can tattoo shops do with SMS?
−
You can confirm consultations, send appointment reminders, request deposits, promote artist portfolios, announce flash days, and request reviews. SMS helps reduce cancellations and build repeat clients.
How quickly do clients respond to texts?
+
Most texts are read within minutes, making SMS the fastest way to confirm bookings, remind clients about deposits, and send time-sensitive promotions.
Can we use our existing shop number?
+
Yes. You can text-enable your main line so clients can call or text the same number. Messages can be routed to the right artist or staff member.
How do after-hours auto-replies work?
+
When your shop is closed, an auto-reply acknowledges messages, collects details like style, artist preference, or availability, and lets clients know when to expect a response.
Can we segment messages and track results?
+
Yes. Segment by artist, tattoo style, or appointment history. Track replies, bookings, and deposit confirmations to measure ROI from campaigns.
Does this integrate with our booking system or POS?
+
Textellent integrates with booking platforms, CRMs, and POS systems to keep appointments, payments, and client communications organized.
What about compliance and opt-in or opt-out?
+
Clients opt in through booking forms, keywords, or QR codes. Every message includes opt-out instructions, and STOP and HELP requests are processed automatically to maintain compliance.
Can we try Textellent for free?
+
Yes. Tattoo shops can start with a 14-day free trial to test SMS reminders, promotions, and booking workflows before upgrading.
