Training your Group Admins - Economy Plan

Economy plan, Group Admins can:
- Send push notifications to their groups from the ReachWell Dashboard.
- Modify their group banners, descriptions & calendars.
- View group reports.

Message Best Practices
Because messages will come through as
push notifications on contacts' devices, it is important to make sure message titles are short and to the point. Be sure to include important, concise information in the message title so that even if contacts (i.e. families) only read the push notification on their devices, they will still get all the information they need.
Viewing all Messages
Group Admins can navigate to their Dashboard > Messages to see all messages sent, scheduled, or drafts. This page contains message details such as the message author, creation date, and current status.
