Step 5. Add a liability waiver & digital signature

To provide a convenient way for customers to officially sign the document online, Activity Messenger allows you to add a digital signature field to your form.

Step 6: Confirmation email

Activity Messenger immediately sends a confirmation email when a parent signs up their child for your tennis lessons. This email confirms the registration, provides a copy of their invoice, and should include any other important information regarding the upcoming tennis lessons.

You can personalize your welcome email for each tennis lesson form. This customized approach ensures that each student receives accurate and relevant instructions.

Plus, by using Mailmerge to personalize these emails, you can create a lasting first impression before the tennis lessons even begin.
