Frequently Asked Questions
Can we customise the survey if we have multiple organisations?
Yes! If you manage multiple brands, you can customize the name and logo for each organization. Read our 'Managing Multiple Organisations' article.
Can I preview the email before sending it to customers?
Yes! During the survey setup, you can use the 'Send Test' option to preview how the email looks and works. Test responses won’t be saved, so feel free to experiment.
Can I schedule surveys to be sent at a specific time?
Absolutely. In the Send Settings, you can choose when to send surveys. By default, surveys are sent one day after the visit at 8 PM. You can also schedule reminder emails for customers who haven’t completed the survey.
How do I track responses and reviews?
Track sent surveys in the 'Requests Sent' tab and view responses in the 'All Reviews' tab. For a detailed overview, visit the 'Reports' section for statistics and insights.
How do I respond to Yonder surveys?
Survey responses are private and only visible to you. If you’d like to follow up with a customer, you can send them a separate email directly from your email platform.
