Texts for your job: ready messages by profession
Pick your job below for a set of ready texts with character counts, written for people who already gave you their number. Each page shows when to send, who gets which text, and how to send one text per person from your iPhone, so nobody ends up in a group chat.
- Texts for your job or group
Ready texts for seven jobs that text their own clients, students or vendors from an iPhone: fitness, sales, salons, CSA farms, music, events, home.
- By profession
- Yoga and fitness instructorsTool
Ready texts for yoga and fitness instructors: class cancelled, sub teacher, venue change, waitlist spot. One list per venue, each student their own text.
- Account executives and sales repsTool
Follow-up texts for account executives, only to people who asked you to text them. Who you may text, a two-text ceiling, sender ID and a STOP line.
- Hair stylists and barbersTool
Ready texts for stylists and barbers moving to a new salon or suite: two weeks out, three days out, opening day, booked clients. One text per client.
- CSA farmsTool
Weekly CSA pickup reminder texts for a farm season: first pickup, pickup day, per-site lists, missed share, weather, last week. Each member their own text.
- Music teachers and tutorsTool
A recital countdown for music teachers: save the date, piece titles, arrival time, day-of and thank-you texts to parents. Each family their own text.
- Event plannersTool
Vendor texts for event planners: final timeline, load-in, last-minute changes, running late and load-out, with {company} filled per vendor. One text each.
- Lawn care, cleaners and handymenTool
Rain-day and reschedule texts for lawn care, house cleaners and handymen: one list per route day, back-on-schedule, running late, holiday weeks.
- Teams, clients and tenants
- Texting your team's parentsTool
Text team parents one at a time: say what changed, the new time and place, and when your next update comes. Rainout, dues, church and volunteer texts.
- Appointment reminder textTool
Send an appointment reminder text about 24 hours ahead, only to clients who gave you their number. Name your business, ask for a reply, add Reply STOP.
- Texting tenantsTool
A text is a heads-up, not legal notice. Text each tenant on their own with the date and time window, then give the notice your state and lease require.
- Texting consent and opt-out basics
Yes, get permission first: business texts from your own phone still count. Honor STOP in 10 business days, don't buy lists. Not legal advice.
The short answer
These pages are for people who text their own clients, students, members or vendors from their own iPhone: a yoga teacher, a stylist, a farm. Each has five to eight ready texts with character counts, a send plan and the job's permission rules. Every text starts with {firstName}; every page explains sending one text per person.
Permission comes first
Every page assumes people gave you their number for these texts. Contact details from a list, a card or a sign-in sheet aren't permission. Rules and sources: texting customers: consent and opt-out basics. Not legal advice.
One text per person, and you tap Send
Putting everyone in one message makes a group: Apple says everyone in a group iMessage or group MMS sees all replies. The text each person individually guide shows the free way to send one at a time. Our tools write and count; Messages sends when you tap Send.
