Set up an automatic reply to new inquiries

Write a reusable acknowledgment and choose whether to send it to new counselees.

Last checked

Before you start

Decide what a new counselee needs to know, such as how you will reply and what to expect next. Avoid promising an appointment or a response time you cannot keep.

Follow these steps

  1. 1. Open Automatic reply

    Go to Inquiries and find the Automatic reply section.

    Open inquiries
  2. 2. Write your message

    Enter your text under Your message. You can select Use an example when the field is empty, then edit it to fit your practice.

  3. 3. Preview the message

    Read the preview. Make sure it is clear that this is an acknowledgment and that an appointment has not been booked.

  4. 4. Choose whether to turn it on

    Check Send my automatic reply to new counselees to enable it. Leave the box unchecked if you only want to keep a draft.

  5. 5. Save your choice

    Select Save automatic reply and wait for the confirmation that it is on or off.

What happens next

When enabled, your message is used for new inquiries. It identifies itself as automatic and directs replies to your verified account email. It does not resend to earlier inquiries.
