If you run a medspa, you probably already know that email campaigns are a smart way to stay in touch with patients. But hereâs the real trickâpersonalizing those emails. That means making each message feel like it was made just for them. Why? Because people are more likely to open, read, and respond to emails that feel personal.
Donât worryâitâs easier than it sounds. Letâs walk through how to personalize email campaigns for medspa patients step by step.
1. Collect the Right Patient Info First
Before sending personal emails, you need details about your patients. Not too muchâjust what helps make your messages more meaningful.
How to do it:
- Ask for first name, birthday, and main concerns when they book a service.
- Use a short intake form to ask about skin type, wellness goals, or favorite treatments.
- Track what services each patient has already received.
This info helps you speak directly to their needs, not just blast a general offer.
2. Use Their First Name in the Email
Calling someone by their name grabs their attention. It feels more friendly and warm.
How to do it:
- Use email software (like Mailchimp or HighLevel) that adds in the patientâs name automatically.
- Instead of saying âHi there,â try âHi Jessica,â or âHey Michael!â
A small touch like this can make a big difference.
3. Segment Patients into Email Campaign Groups
Not every patient is the same. Some love facials. Others are all about body sculpting. Grouping people by their interests helps you send email campaigns theyâll actually care about.
How to do it:
- Create groups based on treatments (like Botox, weight loss, or laser).
- Make groups for new patients vs. long-time regulars.
- You can even group by age or birthday month.
Now you can send different messages to each group. For example, people whoâve had a consultation but havenât booked anything yet? Give them a special first-time offer.
4. Send Special Emails Around Birthdays or Holidays
Who doesnât like a birthday surprise? Sending a fun offer or sweet message around birthdays or holidays shows you care.
How to do it:
- Use your email tool to track patient birthdays.
- Set up automatic birthday emails with a treat (like â$25 OFF your next facialâHappy Birthday!â)
- Do the same for holidays like Valentineâs Day, Motherâs Day, or New Yearâs.
It makes your emails stand out from all the boring ones in their inbox.
5. Recommend Services Based on What Theyâve Tried Before
Letâs say a patient came in for Botox. A few weeks later, you could email them about dermal fillers or skincare that pairs well with Botox.
How to do it:
- Check their treatment history.
- Suggest a follow-up or complementary service.
- Example: âLoved your HydraFacial? You might enjoy our Dermaplaning treatmentâglow up even more!â
People appreciate helpful suggestions that feel custom-made.
6. Use Friendly, Casual Language
No one wants to read stiff, robotic emails. Talk like a real person. Keep it light, helpful, and kindâjust like how youâd speak in the medspa.
How to do it:
- Write emails like you’re talking to a friend.
- Use short sentences. Break big ideas into smaller ones.
- Avoid complicated words or medical terms unless you explain them.
Example: Instead of saying âThis procedure enhances collagen production,â try âIt helps smooth out skin and gives that healthy glow.â
7. End with a Simple Call to Action (CTA)
After reading the email, what should the patient do next? Make it easy and clear.
How to do it:
- Add buttons like âBook Now,â âClaim Your Offer,â or âSchedule My Free Consult.â
- Put the CTA near the end of the email and make it stand out.
- Keep it friendly, like âCanât wait to see you again soon!â
A good CTA turns a nice message into a booked appointment.
Wrapping It Up
Personalizing email campaigns isnât just about making things look pretty. Itâs about showing patients that your medspa gets them. You know what they like, what they need, and when to reach out. With just a few easy tweaks, your emails can go from âblahâ to âbooked.â
