βΈοΈ Hold Lifecycle Messages
Four configurable SMS touchpoints that keep families connected during holds and make returning frictionless - reducing the risk that a temporary hold quietly becomes a cancellation.
π‘Why It Matters
Holds are where families quietly drift away
Without proactive communication, families on hold lose connection to the center and forget to return. A structured touchpoint sequence keeps the relationship warm.
The return decision happens before the hold ends
Prompting families to book their return session before the hold expires - not after - dramatically increases the chance they follow through.
Acknowledgment signals you care
A same-day message when a hold starts tells families they are seen, not just paused. That matters when families are deciding whether to come back.
πWhat You Get
- β’ Hold acknowledgment on day 0, mid-hold check-in, ending-soon reminder, and welcome back message
- β’ Editable templates with variables like guardian name, student name, hold dates, and booking URL
- β’ Configurable day offsets per touchpoint so timing fits your workflow
- β’ Per-trigger enable/disable so you can activate only the touchpoints you want
- β’ Messages sent to all guardians with mobile phones on file
