How customers opt in to text messages from Blue Collar Beaver

Blue Collar Beaver is operated by Ex Nihilo Nihil Fit Solutions LLC.

1. The link is in our service emails

Blue Collar Beaver emails its own customers about work they have booked with us: appointment reminders, on-the-way notices and invoice reminders. When a customer has a mobile number on file and has never been asked about text messages, those emails end with a link: Get text updates about your service. Nothing is signed up by opening the email or the link.

These are our own customers, and the permission is given to us. Text messages that a business sends to its own customers using our software are a different thing: they go out under that business's own name and its own carrier registration. We do not send messages on behalf of any other business.

2. A page that asks only about text messages

The link opens a page made for that customer. It names Blue Collar Beaver and shows one checkbox, unchecked, for the mobile number we have on file (the last four digits are shown), then a Save button. The page asks about text messages and nothing else: there is no other permission on it to give. The texts are updates about the customer's service only. Blue Collar Beaver does not send marketing by text message.

The text updates page for Blue Collar Beaver, with one unchecked checkbox agreeing to text messages about the customer's service, followed by a Save button.
The text updates page as a customer of Blue Collar Beaver sees it. The number shown is a test number.

The checkbox reads:

Text me at the number ending in 0199. By checking this box you agree to receive recurring automated text messages from Blue Collar Beaver about your service: appointment reminders, on-the-way notices, estimate follow-ups, invoice reminders and requests for a review. No marketing texts. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help. Reply STOP to cancel at any time.

3. Nothing changes until the customer saves

Permission is recorded only when the customer checks the box and presses Save. We store the mobile number, the date and time, and the exact wording shown. A customer who leaves the box unchecked, or closes the page, is not added. After saving, the customer sees a confirmation on the page and receives one confirmation text:

Blue Collar Beaver: You're subscribed to texts about your service. Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help, STOP to cancel.
