How This Automation Works
Installation Anniversary or Service Interval Reached → Customer Receives Personalized Service Reminder
Monitor Installation and Service Dates
The system continuously monitors customer records for sun tunnel installations and completed service appointments, calculating when the next maintenance interval is approaching based on predefined service schedules (12, 18, or 24 months).
Generate Personalized Reminder Content
When a service interval approaches (typically 30 days before due date), the system automatically generates personalized reminder content including customer name, installation details, sun tunnel specifications, and recommended maintenance tasks specific to their product.
Send Multi-Channel Notification
The reminder is delivered through the customer's preferred communication channel (email or SMS), including service benefits, easy scheduling options with direct booking links, and contact information for questions or immediate booking.
Track Response and Schedule Follow-ups
The system monitors customer responses, tracking appointment bookings and inquiries. For customers who don't respond within 7 days, an automatic follow-up reminder is triggered with alternative scheduling options or special service offers.
Update Records and Reset Cycle
When service is completed, the system automatically updates the customer record with the service date, tasks performed, and technician notes, then resets the maintenance reminder cycle for the next interval based on the completed service date.
How It Works
Sun tunnels require regular maintenance to maintain peak light transmission efficiency and prevent issues like moisture buildup, seal degradation, and reflective surface deterioration. This automation tracks installation dates and service history to automatically send timely maintenance reminders to customers. The system monitors service intervals, generates personalized reminder communications, and schedules follow-up notifications for customers who haven't responded. By proactively reaching out before performance issues arise, businesses reduce emergency service calls, extend product lifespan, and maintain customer satisfaction. The automation integrates with customer databases, service scheduling systems, and communication platforms to create a seamless maintenance reminder process that requires minimal manual oversight while maximizing customer retention and service revenue.
The Trigger
The automation initiates when a sun tunnel reaches its scheduled maintenance interval (typically 12-24 months after installation or last service), when a customer record is updated with installation details, or when environmental factors indicate accelerated maintenance needs based on location data.
The Action
The system automatically generates and sends a personalized maintenance reminder via email or SMS, including service benefits, scheduling options, and contact information. If no response is received within 7 days, a follow-up reminder is sent. Completed services update the customer record to reset the maintenance cycle.
