What This Is
Ferbz's automated WhatsApp reminders are a powerful tool for spas and wellness centres to rebook more clients and increase revenue. This feature is part of the Automation module, which allows owners to describe a goal in plain English, such as "win back clients who haven't booked in 30 days," and Ferbz's AI drafts a multi-step WhatsApp journey using the business's own templates. The Automation module is linked to the Appointments and Clients modules, ensuring that reminders are sent to the right clients at the right time. For example, when a client books a massage, the system can automatically send a reminder to rebook in 30 days. The reminder clock is calculated per the automation journey's trigger, and the message is sent from the official WhatsApp Business API, ensuring that all sending is compliant and reliable.
In the context of spas and wellness centres, automated WhatsApp reminders can help reduce no-shows, increase client retention, and save time for staff. By automating reminders, owners can ensure that clients receive timely notifications about their upcoming appointments, package expirations, or membership renewals. This feature is particularly useful for spas and wellness centres, as it helps to reduce the likelihood of clients forgetting to rebook their next session, which is a common pain point in this industry.
The Automation module also provides a visual canvas for editing and customizing reminder journeys, allowing owners to tailor their messaging to their specific business needs. For instance, a spa can create a reminder journey that sends a series of messages to clients who haven't booked in 30 days, offering them a discount on their next session. The module also provides sent, delivered, and read statistics for each reminder, giving owners valuable insights into the effectiveness of their reminder campaigns.
How Spas and wellness centres Owners Use It
To use Ferbz's automated WhatsApp reminders, owners start by navigating to the Automation tab in their Ferbz dashboard. From there, they can create a new automation journey by clicking on the "Create Automation" button. Next, they describe their goal in plain English, such as "rebook clients who haven't booked in 30 days." Ferbz's AI then drafts a multi-step WhatsApp journey using the business's own templates.
For example, let's say the owner of "Serene Spa" wants to rebook clients who haven't booked in 30 days. They would create a new automation journey with the following settings:
- Trigger: 30 days since last booking
- Message 1: "Hi [Client Name], we miss you! Book your next massage now and get 10% off. Reply 'BOOK' to schedule."
- Message 2 (sent 7 days later): "Hi [Client Name], don't forget to book your next session! Limited spots available. Reply 'BOOK' to schedule."
- Message 3 (sent 3 days later): "Hi [Client Name], last chance to book your next session! Reply 'BOOK' to schedule."
The owner can then review and customize the journey on the visual canvas, adding or removing messages as needed. Once the journey is created, Ferbz will automatically enroll clients who meet the trigger criteria, sending them the reminder messages at the designated times.
To illustrate this, let's say Serene Spa has 100 clients who haven't booked in 30 days. Ferbz will automatically enroll these clients in the reminder journey, sending them the first message. If 20 clients respond to book a session, Ferbz will remove them from the journey. The remaining 80 clients will receive the second message, and so on. By using Ferbz's automated WhatsApp reminders, Serene Spa can increase client retention, reduce no-shows, and save time for staff.

Second, they increase client retention by sending timely reminders, reducing the likelihood of clients forgetting to rebook their next session.
