    Text Request
    Text Request is appropriate for all kinds of scenarios! I really have NOT found a situation where Text Request was not suitable to use to try and reach a patient. We have used TR to contact a patient that we have received a referral from their Primary Doctor and we need to schedule an evaluation, we have used TR for insurance and Billing, we have used TR for contacting patients that missed a visit and to reschedule.

    Text Request
    • I think so far the only improvement I could suggest would be to be able to "un-send" a text within like 30 secs in case you send something out incorrectly.
    • Maybe adding more emojis
    • When sending a file make the size of the pic they see bigger

    Usability
    Yext
    If you wish to reduce stress of managing multiple social media handles from a single place, you can use Hearsay Social. Hearsay Social helps you analyze, automate, schedule posts and even give ideas for posts. Rather than multitasking, one would obliviously choose a single place to track your posts. It also fares greatly as compared to its competitors. It has a great interface. Very easy and simple to use.

    Text Request is very user friendly. I started using the Text Request platform on Day 1 without any specific instructions and I was able to figure it out very easily!

    Facebook Business Manager is also good however it has some limitations like it's very difficult to remove an ad account, we cannot schedule shared posts and the user interface is a bit complicated and not user-friendly. I like the user interface of Hearsay Social. I find it very simple and easy to use. Also, it has all the features that you might require in Social Media Management tool.

    I use Hatch for my service businesses because they integrate with our CRM tool and Text Request does not. I am NOT a fan - their support is not even half as good as TR but they fill a need that our company has. I like the technology, customer service and ease of use that Text Request gives to us - I just want them to integrate with my CRM! If so, I'd leave Hatch in a heartbeat!

    • That is not something we see from an office standpoint. This is something that our Headquarters would keep track of.
    • What I can say is that the amount of patients being scheduled after implementing TR has been in an upward trend.
    • Also patients that missed their appointments are more likely to reschedule when being able to do so with just a text message
