Automated Reminders

The professionalism you already have, finally visible.

Every booking confirmed. Every 24-hour reminder sent. Every reschedule communicated. From your name, your number, in full sentences. Learners think you're running a franchise. You're not — you just look like one.

  • SMS + email, unified, no Zapier stitching.
  • Australian SMS delivery (not US-routed with 30% drop).
  • Branded from your name, not "Secure Licence" or a short code.

Without it

You're typing the same message 30 times a week.

And missing a few. And looking inconsistent. And burning evening hours that should be yours.

10pm reminder thread

You spend Sunday night texting reminders to tomorrow's learners. Your partner glares. You forget one. They don't show.

Inconsistent voice

Each reminder is slightly different. Some have the address. Some don't. Some are three words. You look amateur.

The missed reschedule

You moved a lesson at 8am. At 10am you realise you forgot to tell them. They're at the original address. You're at the new one.

How it works

Set once. Forget forever.

Built-in for every key event

Confirmation at booking, 24hr reminder, 2hr heads-up, reschedule notice, cancellation receipt, payment confirmation. Sent automatically to learners — and you get a copy too, so you always know what's gone out.

Customise the wording (optional)

Defaults work great. But if you want to sound more you, edit every template. SMS and email, separately.

SMS template
Hi {learner_name} 👋 Just a reminder, your {duration} driving lesson is tomorrow ({date}) at {time}. I'll pick you up from {pickup_address}.

Every event fires automatically

You literally do nothing. The system knows when a lesson is in 24hr. It sends. Learner replies? You see it in your dashboard.

Less typing. Fewer no-shows. Better vibes.

5 hrs/wk back

No more typing reminders. No more checking if you sent them.

40% fewer no-shows

SMS is the highest-engagement channel. A well-timed one kills the "I forgot" excuse.

Professional feel

Parents of new drivers see the SMS trail and relax. Referrals go up.

Audit trail

Every message logged. Dispute over a late-cancel? You've got the proof.

Instructors who got their evenings back.

Brooke · 9 years · Adelaide

"I used to spend 45 mins every Sunday night texting reminders. Now I don't. My Sundays belong to me again."

Jake · 3 years · Newcastle

"No-shows dropped from 4–5 a month to maybe 1. That's literally $400/mo extra income for doing nothing different."

Bianca · New instructor · Canberra

"A mum told me my reminder SMS was the most professional thing she'd seen from an instructor. I literally do nothing."
