    Two-Way SMS Messaging

    SMS lets you text customers from a dedicated shop number, right inside Claimory. It is one of the biggest cuts to where-is-my-car phone traffic. Available on Professional and up.

    1. Step 1
      1

      Open the SMS Center

      Click SMS in the navigation. The first time, provision your shop number (you can request a preferred area code). After that you have a conversation list and a message thread, like any texting app.

      Start a conversation

      Press New Conversation, pick a contact, and text. Inbound replies land in the same thread, and you get an alert when a customer texts back.

      Turn on automatic notifications

      In SMS settings, enable automatic messages for status updates, appointment reminders, ready-for-pickup, and supplement updates, so customers stay informed without anyone typing.
