Best in the Market

Not all have email but most have a mobile phone with an SMS reminder being the preferred option because snail mail just does not work. Notifyre makes SMS so simple and lightning fast and a great value for money offering.

Friendly and Personal Support

I needed to send myself automated texts, and Notifyre made the process simple. Ryan personally called to help me complete the form, no bots, just real, friendly support from a real person. Excellent start with Notifyre. If this level of customer service continues, I can’t imagine being disappointed and it’ll even handle those few faxes I still have to send each year.

Excellent SMS Service

Great platform to enable SMS marketing for our business. The platform is easy to use, with the ability to set up multiple marketing lists, making campaigns easier without having to tick and untick contacts each time. It would be great if there was a QR code for customers to automatically add their contacts instead of manually entering them. Overall, a great product that's easy to use.

SMS for car dealerships FAQs

How does text marketing for car dealerships work?

It lets your dealership use SMS marketing to send lead follow-ups, appointment reminders, and promotions directly to a customer's phone, and receive replies in the same conversation. You can message one customer about a trade-in or send a mass text to your whole database about an end of month sale.

Can we use text messaging for both sales and service departments?

Yes. Notifyre lets you create and manage separate contact lists for sales leads, current owners, and service customers, helping your teams send relevant messages to the right customer groups.

Is sending SMS marketing to customers legal in the US?

Yes, as long as you follow TCPA requirements. That means only messaging customers who have consented, clearly identifying your dealership in every message, and including an opt-out. High-volume sending also needs a registered 10DLC number, which takes 1 to 2 weeks to set up and carries a monthly registration fee.

How quickly can our dealership get set up with Notifyre?

Most dealerships can sign up and start sending SMS within a few days. If you're registering a 10DLC number or connecting SMS to your Dealership Management System (DMS) or CRM through our SMS API, allow 1 to 2 weeks.

How much does SMS marketing cost for a dealership?

Notifyre uses pay-as-you-go pricing with no lock-in contracts, so you only pay for what you send. 10DLC registration carries a separate monthly fee. Dealerships can start small with appointment reminders and scale up to full marketing campaigns once they see the response rates.

Can customers reply to our text messages?

Yes. Notifyre's two-way SMS inbox lets customers reply to confirm a booking, ask a question, or opt out, and your team can respond from the same secure inbox without needing a separate app.
