Audiences for Newsletters & Scheduled Emails
Updated over 8 months ago

Craft an audience that can be reused for sending newsletters or scheduled emails. Follow these steps to create an Audience that includes All Clients, clients who have recently visited your studio, or clients who have member status.

When creating your Audience, keep in mind bounce and spam complaint thresholds. You do not want to exceed the bounce threshold of 10% and maintain a spam complaint rate threshold below 0.1%. Email servers flag streams thats exceed the thresholds and can temporarily suspend sending capabilities. As tempting as it is to create an audience that includes everyone who is opted in, we advise you set an additional condition layer to to send only to clients have visited recently. For example, you can create an audience to clients who have visited at least once in the past year.

Clients will be sent emails and texts from the Marketing Center only if they are opted in to Marketing.
