How myShop brings customers back

Declined work

Every declined line lands on a list with its price and age. Every quote that is not booked yet gets a friendly text at 30, 60 and 90 days, with a link to pick a time. You see who booked on one list.

Service due

Each car has a due date or mileage. You see what is due in the next two weeks, with a drafted text ready to send. myShop texts each customer when their car is due. They pick an open time from the text or from your website, and it lands on your calendar.

Reviews and replies

Two-way texts from your shop's own number. Their replies land on the repair order in myShop. After pickup, they get a link to your Google reviews.

Campaigns and win-backs

Text and email campaigns to your customer list. Win-back texts to customers you have not seen in a while. Text and email templates you can edit. See where each customer came from.

Checked November 2026. A cell that says "not listed" means we did not find it on the page we read. The vendor may still offer it.

When texts start

Phone carriers must approve your shop before it can send business texts. This is called A2P 10DLC, and it takes one to three weeks or more. We set up your texting number for you. Until the carriers approve it, texts from your shop's own number wait. The follow-up and reminder lists draft each message for you to send from your own phone.
