Key Features of RepairBuddy’s Maintenance Reminder System

Here’s how you can configure automated reminders for your repair jobs:

  • Set Trigger Gap: Choose how long after a job is delivered to send the first reminder (e.g., 3, 6, or 12 months).

  • Maximum Reminders: Control how many follow-ups are sent per job (e.g., 1, 2, or unlimited).

  • Interval Between Reminders: Choose gaps between each reminder (e.g., every 2 days or 2 weeks).

  • Send via Email or SMS: Create and customize messages with dynamic keywords (e.g., customer name, device, job ID, due balance).

  • Target by Device Type: Set reminders for specific device categories (e.g., only mobile phones or laptops).

  • Target by Brand: Limit reminders to certain brands (e.g., Samsung, Apple, Dell).

  • Preview & Test: Send test reminders to yourself to check formatting before enabling.

  • View Logs: Access full logs showing which customer received which message, on which device and channel.

  • Unsubscribe Management: Customers can opt-out anytime via email or SMS to ensure compliance.

Smart Automation That Runs Daily

RepairBuddy uses a daily cron job system to check which jobs are due for maintenance reminders.

This means:

  • icon You don’t have to manually track service intervals
  • icon Your customers receive personalized alerts on time
  • icon You build trust and reliability with proactive service

Use Case Examples – Maximize Your Customer Retention

Example 1: You repaired a customer’s laptop in June 2025. You know the OS or antivirus should be updated after 1 year.
✅ Set a Laptop Reminder with a 12-month gap → In June 2026, the customer automatically receives a reminder for a system upgrade.

Example 2: You replaced a Samsung phone battery in January. Since its typical life is 12 months...
✅ Set a Samsung Brand Reminder with a 1-year interval → The user gets notified just in time before battery issues arise again.

These small, timely nudges are a proven way to drive repeat traffic and increase customer lifetime value.
