Create an end of session reminder template

Creating a template that can be customized with MailMerge is key. This allows for easy customization based on a specific class and each gymnast’s personal information.

Your template should include the gymnast’s name, the end date of the session, and information about the upcoming session. Consider adding a link to survey to collect feedback.

📌 Pro Tip: We keep our end-of-session emails short and sweet. They include a certificate, a survey, and details about the next session. Sending these before the last class gives parents and our coaches a chance to talk afterward, so we can make sure everyone’s questions are answered.

What to include in your end of session reminder

Crafting a reminder goes beyond just marking the end of a session – it’s a chance to deepen their connection with your gymnastics community.

  • Personal Touch: Use the name placeholders to address each gymnast personally.
  • Feedback: Embed a survey in your email to gauge how your gymnasts felt about their last session.
  • Recognition: Celebrate their dedication by including certificates of achievement.
  • Next Steps: Use this reminder as a prompt to encourage sign-ups for the upcoming session.

How to create and send bulk certificates for Gymnastics

📌 Pro Tip: A game changer for us was adding a certificate to our end-of-session emails. This increased our email open rates, and we noticed more clicks to sign up for the next session. These certificates often end up being shared on social media, as proud parents love to share their child’s gymnastics accomplishments. This has naturally extended our marketing reach.
