Reminder campaigns can be set up as voice or SMS reminders, or a combination of the two. These campaigns can either be scheduled as one-time events or as recurring reminders. In addition, the new solution can be integrated with hundreds of CRM applications and other online scheduling services using popular workflow automation tools, like Zapier and IFTTT, so reminders can be scheduled automatically when an appointment is created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis new application gives SkySwitch resellers a leg-up when it comes to pursuing their clientele in service-based industries, such as the healthcare, personal care, hospitality verticals or anything that requires follow-up activity,\u201d SkySwitch President and Founder, Eric Hernaez, said. \u201cAs Business SMS continues to grow in popularity, specialized tools, like our Appointment Reminder app, become pivotal to the success of service-based companies that utilize SMS and Cloud Voice in very specific, recurring ways. Now, SkySwitch resellers have a significant new feature that brings real value across a wide range of industries, and allows them to differentiate their services from other vanilla business voice offerings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Appointment Reminder app also includes an \u201cAppointment Reminder Report\u201d feature that makes it easy to filter and drill down on important details, like recipient phone number or reminder delivery status. The application can also detect pre-configured keywords so recipients can easily opt-in or opt-out of appointment reminders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SkySwitch resellers that want to learn more about the configuration and set-up of this application should\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyswitch.com\/appointment-reminder-with-vbroadcast\/\">read this blog post<\/a>\u00a0and visit the\u00a0SkySwitch Knowledge Center\u00a0for official documentation and guides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"vBroadcast Appointment Reminder Feature\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kcL-_Nt6iUY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About SkySwitch&nbsp;<br><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyswitch.com\/\">SkySwitch<\/a>&nbsp;is the US-based, next-generation communications platform provider offering white-labeled Unified Communications-as-a-Service (UCaaS) solutions to telecommunication and business technology resellers across North America.
