Emailing Clients from the Pet Birthday Report

Modified on Thu, 30 Mar, 2023 at 8:15 PM

IMPORTANT: To send mass/bulk emails from Pet Sitter Plus you must first integrate your personal or business email account with Pet Sitter Plus using SMTP. To do this please read all the notes on SMTP in this section here to configure your SMTP or Google integration.


You can email your clients direct from the Pet Birthday Report and send them a communication wishing their pet a Happy Birthday.  You can create your own personalised Pet Birthday Email Template using Merge Codes, that automatically insert the Pet Name and also the Clients Name and even your company Name. 

 

Below is an example Email Template you could create to send to your clients.


Step 1: How Do I Create a Pet Birthday Email Template?

Navigation: Reports > Admin > Supporting Data > Email Templates



To create a new Email Template to use with the Pet Birthday Report:

  • Click on "New."
  • Name your new Template, i.e. "Pet Birthday."
  • Click "Add New Email Template."

Here is an example of the narrative you could include in your new Pet Birthday Email Template, for ease, you can copy and past this into your new Email Template on your system:


Hi {CLIENT_FIRST_NAME},


We have noted that today is {PET_NAME}'s birthday!!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!


All the team here at {COMPANY_NAME} would like to wish {PET_NAME} a very Happy Birthday and hope they have an amazing day.


Kindest regards




{STAFF_FORENAME}

{COMPANY_NAME} 

Email: {COMPANY_EMAIL} 

Phone: {COMPANY_PHONE} 



Tip: You can make the Text "Happy Birthday" more visually appealing by using some of the formatting tools, i.e. make the text larger or a different color, or insert emoji's, an example is shown below:
