Enable messaging features
To activate an e-mail or SMS function, go to “Settings” -> “E-mail and SMS” in the system. Here you will find all available message functions and you can quickly and easily activate the ones you need. In addition, you can edit the message that will be sent to your clients, for a more personal customer contact.
Additional functions
Depending on which apps you have chosen to activate in EasyPractice, the different message functions will appear under Email and SMS. If you use the “Questionnaire” app, you can, for example, choose to set up an automatic sending of your surveys. Or if you use the “Video meetings” app, you can quickly and easily send invitations to e-consultations. Everything to get the most out of your system!
Why use automatic messages?
Writing personal messages to your customers would be ideal, but with a large number of clients, it may be impossible, or simply too time-consuming. By automating this part of your work, you can save yourself time, while at the same time, you can be sure that your clients are getting the right information in their messages. By receiving a booking confirmation, your clients can be sure that they successfully book an appointment with you at the right time, and it will provide them with useful information about the upcoming appointment. An e-mail or an SMS reminder goes a long way to ensure that your customers do not forget that they have booked an appointment with you. Your customers will receive an appointment reminder a day before the appointment, which will give them plenty of time to prepare.
Send messages to specific clients
If there is a specific group of clients you want to send a message to, there is a filter function that you can use for this. For example, you can filter out the clients who had an appointment with you this week and quickly send them a group message via email or SMS. You will find this function in your client menu, at the top right of the page. Click on the “Show all” line and select which clients to filter out. Then click on “Select clients” next to “Clients with bookings this week” to select all clients with this filter. In this way, you will not have to manually find all the clients you need, and you will be able to quickly and easily send them a message.
