What if we only sell printed gift cards?

Choose that option in each kit. The drafts then speak only to printed cards, and your hours and last pickup time become the main facts to get right.

Do we have to state a cut-off time?

No. If you leave the field blank, the copy contains no deadline. If you do enter one, use a time you will actually keep, and say what happens to orders after it.

Can we text clients about gift cards this week?

The text kit is for clients who agreed to receive texts from the shop, sent from your booking app. If you are not sure, the drafts come with a do-not-send note. The waitlist alert goes only to the waitlist tag in your booking app.

What do I say to "can you groom my dog before the family arrives?"

The realistic no: thank them, say the last grooms are taken, and offer the waitlist or the first dates after you reopen. The reply kit writes it without blame, without a comment on the dog, and without inventing a slot.

The final week before Christmas for dog groomers, run on real logistics

The last week before Christmas runs on logistics. A buyer wants an e-gift card tonight. A pet parent wants to know if you have anything left on the 23rd. Someone asks you to groom their dog before the family arrives, and the honest answer is no. By now the questions are about timing, delivery and dates, not about what a groom is.

This pack gives you ten prompts for those final days. The gift card format you sell, your amounts, your terms, your cut-off time, your closed dates and your real open slots all stay in your hands. Your own AI tool writes the drafts from what you type, and you read them before anything goes out.

One question shapes every kit

What gift card format do you sell? Each kit asks that first, with three answers: an e-gift card sent by email or text, a printed card picked up at the salon, or both. The drafts describe only the format you choose. If your cards are printed, nothing implies a card can land in someone's inbox on Christmas Eve. If they are e-gift cards, nothing promises a delivery speed you did not type.

Only state slots and cut-offs you will keep

An open slot in a post is a promise to whoever reads it. The still-open-this-week kit lists only the slots you type, and the Story kit carries one fact a day. A cut-off time for e-gift orders appears only if you enter one. Leave the field blank and the copy says nothing about a deadline.

Before you start, copy your last groom date, closed dates and reopening date from your booking app so they match everywhere: the posts, the Google profile, the voicemail, the auto-reply. One wrong date on one channel is how you end up answering texts on Christmas morning.

What you get for the final days

The plan comes first: a day-by-day timeline ending on closing day, a channel list, a capacity and delivery check, and an approval path. Three captions follow: the e-gift card sent today, still open this week, and the December 20 to 24 Story captions with the closing-day message. One Reel shows how to send an e-gift card in three steps, and another cuts your own clips of the last grooms before the holidays.

You also get an email that explains how a card is redeemed in January, a text to regulars with an open-slot alert for your consent-based waitlist, a reply set for gift card questions, pickup and redemption, and the realistic no, and a one-page example that gathers everything into a brief.

This pack or the Christmas pack?

The Christmas gifting pack covers the whole month, from the gift-a-groom post on. This one is for the final stretch, December 20 to 24. You can use it alone if gift cards were not part of your plan until now, as long as your own advisor has checked the terms you put in the email and the replies.
