Pending which template was chosen, it's possible to recapture client groups from during the salon closure whose appointment was cancelled, marked as a no show, or shown support by purchasing an online gift card/voucher. Click Client Groups and choose one of the following options under Visit History or Vouchers.

For any clients who are missing email addresses, switch Fallback SMS on to Yes. This will send these clients an SMS with a link to view your email campaign, the salon has a wider audience reach and everyone can now access your Online Store.

There is an option to Schedule Campaign for a later time. This may be beneficial for lining up your communication ahead of reopening. Otherwise, continue to Send Campaign now.
