For class providers, building strong relationships with families is just as important as running great sessions. Email marketing is one of the most powerful ways to nurture trust, stay connected, and encourage families to book more classes. But many providers worry email marketing will take too much time or feel overwhelming.
The good news is that with the right system, email marketing can be simple and effective. Book That In (BTI) includes built-in tools that make it easy to send the right messages at the right time, turning one-off bookings into long-term loyalty.
