How This Automation Works
Service Ticket Marked Complete → Customer Receives Care Instructions
Service Completion Trigger
When a technician marks a service ticket as complete in your field service management system, the automation immediately captures the completion event along with service details, customer information, and treatment type.
Treatment Data Collection
The system automatically retrieves relevant service data including pest type treated, products used, treatment areas, customer contact preferences, and any technician notes that should be included in follow-up communications.
Instruction Template Selection
Based on the service type and treatment details, the appropriate care instruction template is automatically selected and populated with customer-specific information, ensuring relevant and personalized guidance.
Content Personalization
The instruction message is customized with the customer's name, specific treatment details, technician information, service address, and any special notes or recommendations documented during the service visit.
Multi-Channel Delivery
The personalized care instructions are sent via the customer's preferred communication channel (email, SMS, or both), ensuring immediate delivery of critical safety and care information.
Delivery Confirmation & Logging
The system logs delivery confirmation, tracks message opens and engagement, and updates the customer record to maintain a complete communication history for compliance and quality assurance purposes.
How It Works
Transform your pest control business by automating the delivery of essential post-service care instructions to every customer. This intelligent system instantly sends personalized guidance on post-treatment protocols, safety precautions, re-entry timelines, and prevention tips the moment a service ticket is marked complete. By eliminating manual follow-up tasks, your technicians can focus on quality service delivery while customers receive timely, professional instructions that enhance treatment results and reduce callback rates. The automation ensures consistent communication across all service types—whether residential pest control, termite treatments, or commercial services—while maintaining your brand's professional standards and building customer confidence through immediate, helpful guidance.
The Trigger
The automation initiates when a pest control service ticket status changes to 'completed' in your scheduling or field service management system. This includes any service type: initial treatments, follow-up visits, inspections, or specialized pest control applications.
The Action
A professionally formatted email or SMS is instantly sent to the customer containing treatment-specific care instructions, safety guidelines, recommended wait times before re-entry, follow-up scheduling information, and preventive measures to maximize treatment effectiveness and ensure customer safety.
