How to Send Broadcast Messages in FitMetrics

Learn how to send messages to multiple clients at once using Broadcast Messages, schedule broadcasts for later, and select recipients by Smart View.

Broadcasts let you send the same message to multiple clients at once — each client receives it in their individual Trainerize chat thread (not a group thread). They won't know it was a broadcast.


How to Send a Broadcast

  1. Click the Broadcast button (top right)

  2. Select Recipients — two ways:

    • Manual: Search and select individual clients. Use "Select All" to pick everyone.

    • Smart View: Pick a saved Smart View — all matching clients are auto-selected.

  3. Compose your message — write text or attach a file

  4. Select Sender — choose a specific trainer or "Assigned Coach" (sends as each client's own coach)

  5. Click Send


Schedule a Broadcast for Later

Instead of sending immediately, you can schedule a broadcast:

  1. After composing your message, click the dropdown arrow next to Send

  2. Choose a time:

    • Later today

    • Tomorrow (9:00 AM)

    • Monday (9:00 AM)

    • One week from now

    • Custom — pick any date and time

Scheduled broadcasts appear in the Scheduled tab where you can edit or cancel them before they send.


Managing Scheduled Broadcasts

In the Broadcast dialog, click the Scheduled tab to see all pending broadcasts. From there you can:

  • Edit — change the message, recipients, or scheduled time

  • Cancel — stop a broadcast before it sends


Important Notes

  • Only active clients with a Trainerize thread appear as recipients

  • Attachment-only messages (no text) can only be sent by the Trainerize Owner account — coaches cannot send attachment-only broadcasts

  • Coaches (non-admin) only see their assigned clients unless your business has "coaches can see all clients" enabled
