Program Description
Tough Oak Tree Care uses SMS to support two-way, non-marketing conversations about residential tree-service jobs. Customers and prospects can text 301-888-8980 or use www.toughoak.com to request service and ask questions; we reply by SMS. We also send automated texts such as estimate/booking confirmations, schedule reminders, exact appointment time notifications, "on the way" updates, job status, and follow-up review links for recently completed work.
Eligibility and Location
The program is intended for individuals in the United States who request our services.
