Automated Outreach: Real-Time SMS Updates for Every Job
Phone tag wastes time, emails get buried, and missed messages stall progress. BlueClerk solves the status-update headache with Automated Outreach—a built-in SMS engine that texts builders and homeowners the moment a job is scheduled, rescheduled, or marked complete.
How the SMS Workflow Operates
Job Scheduled
When your office locks in a date and time.
Job Rescheduled

Job Completed
Field crew finishes work and closes the job in the app.

Each SMS follows a simple, branded format:
Examples:
Benefits for Contractors, Builders, and Homeowners
Instant Clarity
Everyone sees the same concise information: who, what, and where.
Fewer Check-In Calls
Builders aren't left wondering if crews showed up; homeowners know when to expect workers.
Professional Brand Image
Consistent, branded texts look polished compared with ad-hoc personal messages.
Time Saved
Office staff stop dialing phones for routine updates and focus on higher-value tasks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can recipients reply to the SMS?
No. Messages are intentionally one-way to keep communication centralized in BlueClerk and prevent important details from scattering across personal devices.
Does Automated Outreach cost extra?
Every BlueClerk plan includes a bundle of SMS credits sized for normal job volume. Additional credits are available at wholesale rates if needed.
What happens if a job is rescheduled multiple times?
Each reschedule triggers a fresh SMS with the new date and time. The timeline keeps a record of every change.
