What are Snippets?

Snippets are pre-designed message templates for text or email that enable teams to deliver consistent communication. By using Snippets, you can streamline the process of sending repetitive messages, guaranteeing both accuracy and a consistent brand voice in every exchange. These templates can be easily inserted into conversations, enhancing the speed and efficiency of customer interactions. Snippets also allow for customization through placeholders, such as names or trigger links, offering flexibility for various situations.

• Reducing time spent typing repetitive messages.
• Ensuring a consistent tone and language across teams.
• Increasing productivity by offering pre-organized, ready-to-use templates.
• Avoiding errors with reusable, pre-approved text that aligns with your brand voice.
  
  

Whether it’s responding to FAQs, following up on missed appointments, or managing recurring queries, Snippets eliminate manual efforts and maintain professionalism.
