Why gyms and studios ask this
Members drift away quietly before they cancel. It usually surfaces the first time a real list goes out, when class reminders, membership notices and win-back offers stop being a plan and become a send.
What it changes for you
Get this right and the outcome is attendance held up and cancellations caught early. Get it wrong and the cost shows up quietly, in messages nobody read and money already spent.
Doing it in the platform
The compose screen shows the segment count, the cost and the sender name before anything leaves, so the decision is made before the money moves.
