Three ways to work your list. One of them gets answered.
The front desk can call. A blast tool can send. The difference is what happens after the first reply, and who is awake when it comes in.
| Do it yourself | A blast tool | Rekindle IQ | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your time | Hours a week, every week, or it stops. | An hour to set up, then nothing until the replies. | Fifteen minutes on a call. Then none. |
| The first message | Whatever the front desk types between calls. | One message to everyone, usually a discount. | About their last job, in your name, one easy question. |
| When it goes out | When someone remembers. | The minute you press send, to the whole list. | A decent hour in each customer's time zone, spaced out. |
| When they reply | Answered when someone sees it. Often the next day. | Nobody is on the other end. | Answered in minutes, every time, by your rep. |
| "How much?" | A guess from whoever picks up. | Silence, or a coupon. | Your approved answer, or a path to a person. |
| "Not right now" | Forgotten. | Messaged again next blast. | Remembered, and nudged next season. |
| "Stop" | Depends who wrote it down. | Removed from one list. | Ended on text, email, and phone at once, for good. |
| Booking | Phone tag. | A link, if they find it. | Real times offered, booked straight onto your calendar. |
| Compliance | Hope. | Your problem. | Consent, sender, hours, and stop handled on every message. |
| What it costs | A salary, or the jobs you never call back. | Cheap, and it produces about what it costs. | Scoped on the call around your list and your average job. |
Doing it yourself works when someone owns it every day. Most businesses that try it stop after the second week, because the second week is when the replies arrive.
