The phone rings. Someone asks for an ETA. You put down a washer pump, look up the job, call back, move on — five minutes gone. Do it eight times and the whole afternoon is spoken for.
Customers aren't pestering you. They're anxious. They took the day off work, or they're trying to plan the afternoon, or they're worried they missed the truck. A three-second text beats a three-minute phone call every time.
Krewnest fires the right text at the right moment, from your shop's name. The customer knows what's going on. The phone stops ringing. And when you do need to talk, the whole thread is right there on the job.
The texts are tied to real events on the ticket — not a timer. When the status actually changes, the message actually goes out.
When a customer books, Krewnest texts a confirmation — time window, tech name, what to expect, and a link to the ticket.
When the tech starts driving, the customer gets a one-line text with ETA. No more confused calls asking where the truck is.
After signoff, the customer gets a receipt text and a link to the itemized invoice. The thread closes cleanly.
Templated, branded with your shop name, fired from job events. Every message lands on the same thread attached to the ticket.
Time window, tech name, what to expect.
Courtesy ping the night before the visit.
ETA as the tech starts driving.
Quiet ping when the truck pulls up.
Receipt and itemized invoice link at signoff.
Customer replies land on the job thread.
Every text Krewnest sends is a call you didn't have to take. Cumulatively, that's an hour a day back on the truck — and a customer who feels looked after without you lifting a finger.
A reminder the day before and a heads-up the morning of cut no-shows by double digits. The customer is expecting the knock.
Most calls are status calls — when will they be here, is this fixed, did my card go through. Automated texts answer all three before the customer dials.
Every message for one ticket sits on the same job record — the booking confirmation, the on-the-way, the tech's follow-up, the invoice. No stray threads to lose.
When the tech needs to ask a question — “gate code?” — they reply right from the job. The thread stays attached for the next time.
