Build customer follow-up with consent and care
Consistent follow-up should respect customers and support, not replace, your team.
Map the actual workflow
Identify the event that starts a message, the staff member responsible, and the action expected. Distinguish an acknowledgment from a booking confirmation or a repair recommendation.
Respect consent and opt-outs
Use email and SMS only where permitted, with appropriate consent and unsubscribe or opt-out controls. Keep records accurate and minimize sensitive information shared with tools.
Keep a human handoff
An assistant should answer only approved business information and escalate uncertainty. Qualified people remain responsible for diagnosis, safety decisions, dispatch, and resolving customer concerns.
