Ever wish you could skip the whole holiday marketing thing?

We all know it makes sense to push massage gift certificates when shoppers are out in full force, but it’s not like putting a plan into action is as easy as 1-2-3. Coming up with practical ways to grow your massage business takes time and energy!

Fortunately, email marketing is a simple, effective, and direct way to connect with your clients during the holiday shopping rush. Just ask the thousands of massage therapists on MassageBook who sent an email campaign last holiday season. They more than doubled their gift certificate sales compared to the ones who didn’t. To top it off, each email they sent generated an average of $875!

Piece of cake, right?

Even if the thought of writing a marketing email is enough to make your head spin, you’re in good hands this year. We’ve created 8 gift certificate-focused email campaign templates you can schedule to send in only a few simple steps.

All in MassageBook. All in under 5 minutes.

So follow along below to get your email marketing done today and sell more gift certificates this holiday season. Templates for full-price and discount gift certificates are available.
