Automate Your Small Business Email Marketing!
Topping our list of the most underutilized Schedulicity tools to grow your business, Automated Marketing offers a “set it and forget it” option.
Your emails flow in the background, leaving more time for you to do what you do best!
Automated Marketing emails include:
- Thank You Emails (to follow up after appointments)
- Birthday Emails (to share some love on your client’s special day)
- Time to Book Emails (to let clients know it’s time to book based on the timeframe you set)
- Re-Engagement Emails (to help encourage clients to book again by sending them a special offer)

Take Your Pick of Free Email Marketing Templates
With hundreds of free email templates to choose from, you’re sure to find the one that matches your brand style or sale theme.
Sending out a newsletter? Sharing the news about a special deal for the moms out there?
Customize your email with the image you need!
Pro Tip: If you already have your logo added to your Schedulicity account, we automatically include it at the top of every email you send. If you’d prefer to not include your logo, you can also remove it.
Customize Your Recipient List
While you can easily send an email blast to your whole client list, you can also choose specific clients or only send a deal to clients who regularly book a service with you.
Tag Clients to Email Later
Schedulicity’s Client Tags tool is super handy!
Add tags to a client’s profile to organize them into different categories.
Once they’re tagged, you can email specific sets of clients by choosing the “By Tags” option on your recipient list.
Share a Deal (or Two!)
Have a deal you need to promote?
With our Deal Manager tool, you can easily create a discount to share, then send out that discounted offer for your clients to book!
Test Your Email Before Sending It Out
Once you create your email and hit Save, we walk you through an interactive checklist, including the option to send yourself a test email to make sure your email is ready to go.
Keep an Eye on Revenue
As a small business owner, you want to know how well your marketing efforts are paying off.
We built a performance tracker into each email you send. You can see how well your automatic Re-engagement or Time to Book emails are doing, too!
