Contact your clients

Updated this week

You can contact clients by phone call, email, SMS, or Message Center from the Staff Back Office or the Elevate Staff App. The Staff Back Office allows you to send messages to individual clients or groups of clients, access client reports, and filter contact lists using advanced search tools. The Elevate Staff App is optimized for mobile, allowing you to quickly contact individual clients from their profile or reach out to clients from the schedule.

Use WellnessLiving's built-in communication tools to:

  • Send reminders for upcoming appointments, classes, or events.

  • Follow up with clients about missed visits or outstanding payments.

  • Promote business updates, special offers, and loyalty programs.

  • Respond to client inquiries quickly and efficiently.

Clients must have a valid phone number or email address in their profile and be opted in to receive communications to receive your messages. To check or update a client’s preferences, see Change a client's notification settings.

Key tips

  • You can send a maximum of 4,000 emails per hour or 40,000 emails per day to your clients, regardless of the number of locations in your business.

  • Clients must be opted in to receive News and updates in their notification settings to receive custom email template messages.

  • Messages longer than 160 characters, are sent as a multipart message. You can send a multipart message up to 1,530 characters long (153 characters per message, up to 10 messages). For more information, see SMS character limit.

  • A warning message appears before sending when an SMS message will result in overage charges based on your WellnessLiving subscription plan.

  • A client can unsubscribe from SMS messages at any time by replying with STOP, STOPALL, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, END, or QUIT. Even if SMS notifications are enabled on the backend, they will no longer receive messages. To resubscribe, the client must reply with START, YES, or UNSTOP.

  • Clients can only be contacted through Message Center if your business is subscribed to Message Center.
