The Fons system sends email and sms notifications to streamline your experience.

Bottom-line: The Fons notification system is built to save you time and make your clients happy by ensuring best business practices. The Fons system generates email notifications to streamline almost every pertinent interaction between you and your clients.

Here are some examples of the notifications that Fons sends....

  • Appointment reminders:

    • One email appointment reminder is sent out 24 hrs before a provider's cancellation window starts, meaning no more last minute cancellations and increased goodwill between you and your clients!

    • Appointment confirmation reminder 24 hrs ahead of the appointment

    • One SMS Appointment reminder is sent out the same day as the appointment

  • In the event that a client’s payment method is declined, Fons will notify you and your client letting you both know that the payment method needs to be updated.

  • Whenever a provider or client cancels an appointment, the all admins and the staff member on the appointment will be notified

  • Email receipts for successful payments.

  • For clients who use packages to pay for lessons, they will receive a low package balance email when their balance reaches 1.

    • If the package is set to auto-repurchase they are told they will be charged after their next appointment.

    • If the package is NOT set to auto-repurchase they are advised to reach out to the studio and purchase another package.

  • When you establish a billing method for a client (hourly rate, package, or subscription) your client receives a notification about that and is informed of when and how their card will be charged.

    • Hourly rate - they are informed of the rate

    • Packages - they are informed of the cost of the package, the description of the package, how many appointments they are purchasing, how the package balance will be deducted, and if they are set to auto-repurchase.

    • Subscriptions: they are informed of the rate, the frequency of the subscription "renewal" and the date it will start running. ie: $200 monthly starting on the 1st.

If you have any questions, as always feel free to let us know!
