# Customizing the Follow-Up (Thank You) Email and Best Practices

## Follow-up emails (or thank you emails) are sent to customers after their booking has concluded. They are a valuable tool for enhancing customer relationships, gathering feedback, and encouraging future bookings.

### **Setting Up the Follow-Up Email**

1. From the main navigation, go to **Settings** \> **Emails & Messaging**.
2. Select **Follow-Up Email** from the menu on the left.

---

### **Configuring Follow-Up Email Settings**

#### 1. **Activating or Deactivating the Follow-Up Email**

- Click the **Status** button in the top-right corner of the page.
- Change the status to **Activate Follow-Up Email** or **Deactivate Follow-Up Email** based on your preference.

#### 2. **Choosing When to Send the Follow-Up Email**

- Set the timing for when the email is sent after the customer’s booking is complete. 
    - **Best Practice**: Send follow-up emails around **3 hours after the booking**. 
          - **Too Soon**: Customers may not have had time to reflect or respond.
          - **Too Late**: Customers might forget their experience, reducing engagement.

---

#### **Customizing the Follow-Up Email Content**

1\. Use the content editor to add personalized messages and details.

- Leverage formatting tools to enhance the message.
- Include variables like the customer’s **first name** for a personal touch.

2\. The appearance of follow-up emails, such as fonts, colors, and logos, will automatically match your **Email Appearance** settings.

- Need help with email design? Refer to our [guide on customizing the appearance of all emails](https://info.resova.com/resova-knowledge-center/customizing-the-appearance-of-emails?hsLang=en).

3\. To preview the email:
