A year of SMS, one template per week. Every message references the customer's actual drink, rewards free items (never discounts), and is built for a specific trigger moment your POS already knows about. Written to pair with our original 20 coffee SMS templates.

The other 49 arrive in your inbox.
6. The Gentle Notice
When: After 4 missed days for a daily regular
“Hey [first name], the [drink name] station has been a little quiet without you. Everything good? Come back through this week and the next one is on us.”
Why it works: Reads like a friend noticing an absence, not a marketing system, and recovery texts that name the usual order convert at 30 to 38% versus 18 to 22% for generic ones (Bloom Intelligence).
29. The Heat Escape
When: Morning of a forecast hot day
“It is going to be a hot one, [first name]. Come cool off at [shop name] with an iced [drink name] this afternoon. Free size upgrade when you show this text.”
Why it works: Contextual relevance the customer can feel, and weather-triggered messages convert at 2 to 3x the rate of generic promotions.
47. The Birthday Countdown
When: 3 days before a customer's birthday
“Your birthday is almost here, [first name], and so is your free drink. Any size, any [drink name], your whole birthday week at [shop name]. Come treat yourself.”
Why it works: A weeklong window rather than a single day widens redemption, and birthday texts hit 40 to 55% redemption, the highest of any campaign type (NCA, 2025).
