SMS Consent & Call to Action

Opt-In Example

This page demonstrates how end users (patients) provide consent to receive automated text messages through Booking Boost, the automated SMS platform built by Milk Honey Labs LLC for healthcare and dental clinics. All messaging is initiated by patient action — no cold outreach or marketing is ever sent.

Patients consent through one of three voluntary methods described below. Each method is documented with the exact consent language, sample messages, and opt-out instructions.

1

Web Form Opt-In

The clinic’s website includes a contact or appointment request form. The form contains a separate, unchecked SMS consent checkbox. Checking the box is optional — the form can be submitted without it. Only patients who actively check the box consent to receive automated text messages.

Sample Clinic Contact Form

This is a representative example of a clinic’s web form using Booking Boost.

I agree to receive automated text messages from [Clinic Name] regarding appointment scheduling. Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel, HELP for help. View our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. Consent is not a condition of purchase.

Note for reviewers: The SMS consent checkbox above is unchecked by default and is separate from the form submission. The patient must actively check the box to opt in. The form can be submitted without checking it. This checkbox is the call to action for web-based SMS consent.
2

Inbound Text Consent

A patient voluntarily texts the clinic’s phone number to start a conversation. By initiating contact via text message, the patient provides express consent to receive automated replies.

SMS Conversation

Hi, I’d like to schedule a cleaning appointment.

Bright Smile Dental: Thanks for reaching out! We’d be happy to help you schedule. What day and time work best for you? Reply STOP to opt out. Msg & data rates may apply.

Missed Call Follow-Up

A patient calls the clinic and the call goes unanswered. The patient initiated contact by calling. The clinic responds with a single text message that identifies the business and includes opt-out instructions. The patient must actively reply to continue the conversation.

SMS Conversation — after missed call

Bright Smile Dental: Hi, sorry we missed your call! If you have a question or would like to schedule, reply YES and the front desk will give you a call. Reply STOP to opt out. Msg & data rates may apply.

YES

Great! Someone from the front desk will reach out to you shortly. Book online anytime: https://example.com/book

Follow-up sequence: If the patient does not respond to the initial message, up to three polite follow-up reminders are sent over the next 24 hours. Each follow-up includes opt-out instructions. If the patient still does not reply or replies STOP, no further messages are sent. Maximum message frequency: up to 4 messages per lead interaction.
