If you need to contact a customer before the automated email/SMS is sent, follow these steps to send it manually.

  • Use the calendar icon and select the Scheduling View of your preference.

  • Locate the appointment of the client you'd like to contact and click on it.

  • On the top right part of the pop-up window, click Actions.

  • Depending on what you are looking to send, select either the text or email option.

  • A new pop-up window will appear, with the available templates for you to choose from.

  • Select a template and click on "Generate email/text".

  • On the new pop-up window, edit the template as needed before you send it.

  • At the end of the window, you'll be able to select to who you'd like to send the email/text

    • For emails, you can send it to the client, to yourself, and to your office managers

    • For texts, you can only select the client

  • Lastly, click on "Send Email"/"Send Text".


Additional Notes

  • Sending an email/text will only be available if the customer has an email address/phone number in their profile.

  • Manual texts you send will contribute to your SMS usage.

  • If the available templates don't suit your needs, you can always delete the content and start an email from scratch.

  • Your email/sms templates can be updated here https://app.zenmaid.com/settings/communication-templates.
