Automations, emails and notifications

Make sure customer replies reach you

Emails to your customers come from your company name, and replies go to your business email. Set that address in Settings › Company.

Who can do this
Owners, and people with the Company profile permission

Every email your customers get from MakeHay is sent on your behalf. Here's what they see and where their replies go.

  • The sender name is your company name followed by via MakeHay. With the No MakeHay branding add-on, it's your company name alone.
  • Replies go to the Business email in Settings › Company. If that's blank, they go to the owner's login email.
  • The footer of most emails tells the customer that replying reaches you directly.
  • Automated emails, like reminders and review requests, also carry an unsubscribe link, plus your postal address once you've entered one in Settings › Company.

Set your business email

  1. Step 1: Open Settings, then Company.
  2. Step 2: Enter the address you want replies to go to in Business email.
  3. Step 3: Click Save changes.

Tip: To see exactly what a customer sees, use Send me a test in Settings › Emails or on any automation. The test has the same sender name and reply address as the real email.

Good to know: Your notifications go to the same Business email. See Choose which emails you get about your business.
