But, even when your <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/online-contract\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online contract <\/a>has you covered technically, many clients don\u2019t read them. For an added layer of protection and communication, use canned emails to remind clients of policies and expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While a signed agreement is all you need to bind clients to contract terms (regardless of if they read the terms before they signed), you can prevent a lot of customer service issues by strategically including reminders of key contract terms throughout your working client relationship. You can do this using automations using our <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/templates\/category\/contract-templates\">contract templates<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you use a <a

manually and rely on tools like the canned responses Gmail setting, a great client workflow will include timely reminders of key policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jump to:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul

emails?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating canned email responses will help you stay on the <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/how-to-develop-client-relationships\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">same page as your clients<\/a> without having to put too much time and effort into drafting emails. Instead of worrying if they remember every detail of your contract and boundaries, you can schedule automated emails that remind them throughout the project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have multiple team members, canned emails are also a great way to make sure nothing slips through the cracks. Whether you\u2019ve handed off a project or you want to make sure your <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/business-that-can-run-without-you\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">business can run without you<\/a>, canned emails can help you communicate with consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"how\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to use canned emails in your process (and examples of what to say!)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightinbox.com\/blog\/canned-responses-gmail\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">canned emails<\/a>, all you need is a series of email templates that communicate important information and touchpoints throughout your project. If you use a system with automation, you can set up your emails to auto-populate and send at specific moments, such as before meetings, after sending assets, and before making changes to the project scope.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some common email responses below that you can copy, edit to reflect your process, and paste into your account or save to schedule in your email client of choice. We\u2019ve bolded the specific copy that should be edited so you can implement the templates easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Post-booking emails<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Right after you book a client, you\u2019ll want to reiterate some of your main policies, such as meeting procedures, project requirements, and payment policies. Thank them for moving forward, and then give them a clear idea of what they can expect as well as what you expect from them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary of Expectations for coaches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for making your initial payment!

If you get too formal, it can negatively affect the client relationship\u2013 you might feel too much like an enforcer, while your clients might not grasp what you\u2019re saying. While they may be more likely to skim technical contract jargon, your canned emails should reinforce your policies in a way that\u2019s friendly and easy to understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No need to copy and paste language directly out of your contract. If you\u2019re a HoneyBook user, send the contract to your client in a secure email through the application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-container ugb-container ugb-b31d35c ugb-container--v2 ugb-container--design-basic ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-b31d35c-wrapper.ugb-container__wrapper{background-color:#131416 !important;background-image:url(https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Black_CTA_Background.jpg)}.ugb-b31d35c-wrapper.ugb-container__wrapper:before{background-color:#131416 !important;opacity:0}.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > h1,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > h2,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > h3,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > h4,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > h5,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > h6{color:#ffffff}.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > p,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > ol li,.ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper > ul li{color:#ffffff}@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-b31d35c > .ugb-inner-block > .ugb-block-content > *{padding-top:60px !important;padding-bottom:60px !important;padding-right:60px !important;padding-left:60px !important}}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-container__wrapper ugb-b31d35c-wrapper ugb--has-background-overlay\"><div class=\"ugb-container__side\"><div class=\"ugb-container__content-wrapper ugb-b31d35c-content-wrapper\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\"><strong>Work with a Pro to create professional templates<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">HoneyBook Pros are here to help you create a seamless clientflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-button ugb-button-wrapper ugb-4d6aac6 ugb-main-block\"><style>.ugb-4d6aac6 .ugb-block-content{justify-content:flex-start !important}.ugb-4d6aac6 .ugb-button1{background-color:#ffd552}.ugb-4d6aac6 .ugb-button1 .ugb-button--inner,.ugb-4d6aac6 .ugb-button1 svg:not(.ugb-custom-icon){color:#222222 !important}.ugb-4d6aac6 .ugb-inner-block{text-align:left}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-button-container\"><a class=\"ugb-button1 ugb-button ugb-button--size-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/pros.honeybook.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"\"><span class=\"ugb-button--inner\"><strong>Learn more<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how to create and use canned emails with canned email templates you can edit and automate.
