Every class or appointment you offer provides an opportunity to build community and deepen member engagement. You and your instructors can extend this opportunity beyond the session itself by using ABC Glofox to engage class participants with alerts, friendly reminders and other relevant content.

What's New?

In addition to push notifications, you can now send emails directly to clients registered for any class or appointment.

Why This Matters:

Email can be a less noisy option than push notifications, and allows you to share expanded content, images, and links.

1. Pre-event updates: Share schedule updates, instructor swaps, or location changes.
2. Post-event feedback: Gather reviews and testimonials right after class.
3. Instructor branding: Let your team promote their social links or upcoming sessions.

How To Get Started:

1. Go to Home > Calendar and select any class or appointment with at least one registrant.
2. Click “Send group message”.
3. Craft your email, hit Send, and you’re done!
