You can organise your members in groups and then email them directly from within Hello Club. This can be an effective tool to quickly send a message to a specific group of members, like all juniors, committee members, teams, ex-members, etc.

To email members, look for the email button when you hover over the green action button in the bottom right of the screen:

Your email will be sent to all members showing in the member list. If you wish to email a specific group or members with a specific membership, make sure you filter for these groups or membership types to filter the member list and email these members only.

You can also select one or more individual members by clicking the checkbox next to their avatar and emailing only to this selection by clicking on the Email button:

The resulting dialog will allow you to write up a quick email to send to your members.

To send more elaborate newsletters, we recommend that you use our Mailchimp or Campaign Monitor integrations instead.

The recipient count for mailing members represents the total number of members for your current filter, who have an email address. It's possible that some of your members don't have an email address, or that you are filtering on a field which doesn’t bring up all your members.

Once an email gets sent, the mailing system will perform some more rigorous checks on email addresses to ensure that they are valid, and it will avoid sending the same email to duplicate email addresses. It's possible that some of your members (for example a family) share the same email address. In that case, the email will only be sent once, even though the members are counted as multiple recipients.

There is no email limit for the Entry plan or higher. Trial accounts are limited to up to 150 emails per month as well, but to prevent abuse from email spammers, trial accounts are also restricted to how many emails they can send by account age.

If you are running into a limit but need to send out legitimate emails to your members, please contact us and we can look at lifting your limit.
