Supercharge your marketing with seamless Mindbody integration

If you’re running a fitness studio, gym, or wellness center using Mindbody, you already know how powerful it is for managing appointments, memberships, and payments. But when it comes to digital marketing, Mindbody’s capabilities are limited—unless you pay extra for the Marketing Suite.

That’s where DailyStory’s Mindbody integration changes the game.

DailyStory brings sophisticated, easy-to-use marketing automation to your Mindbody setup—with more features, better support, and lower cost. Whether you’re nurturing new leads, engaging current members, or reactivating lost ones, DailyStory gives you the tools to grow your business while Mindbody keeps your operations running smoothly.

Why go beyond the Mindbody Marketing Suite?

Mindbody is excellent at scheduling and payments. But when it comes to email and SMS marketing, most business owners quickly find themselves wanting more.

Mindbody offers a separate Marketing Suite add-on—but it comes with a steep price tag:

  • $120 per month just for basic email marketing
  • $240 per month if you want automation features

In contrast, DailyStory starts for free, includes automation in all plans, and is built from the ground up for digital marketing—not just tacked on.

What makes DailyStory and Mindbody a winning combo?

Native Mindbody integration

DailyStory is a Mindbody partner with a native integration that:

  • Syncs customer data every 2 hours
  • Keeps Mindbody as the single source of truth
  • Supports cross-regional member tracking
  • Enables franchise-wide campaign sharing and reporting

This means your marketing is always based on the latest data—and it’s incredibly easy to launch, track, and optimize campaigns.

Automate and personalize every touchpoint

With DailyStory, your marketing campaigns can be as hands-off—or as custom—as you want. Set up automations once, and let them run in the background to deliver the right message at the right time.

Popular automation examples:

  • Welcome emails for new clients
  • SMS offers
  • Drip campaigns to nurture leads
  • Re-engagement messages for inactive clients
  • Reminders before memberships expire

You can build these campaigns using our drag-and-drop automation builder—no coding required.

Dynamic segmentation based on real-time data

Thanks to DailyStory’s Mindbody integration, you can segment your audience dynamically using real-time data updates. This allows you to send more relevant and timely messages.

Examples of smart segments:

  • New clients
  • Clients who haven’t visited in 30-plus days
  • Leads from your website forms
  • Members whose pricing option expires soon

Segments update automatically based on Mindbody changes, so your campaigns are always accurate—no manual work required.

Lead generation tools that Mindbody doesn’t offer

DailyStory doesn’t just help you market to your current clients—it helps you grow your client list.

Lead generation tools include:

  • Popups to capture website visitors
  • Landing pages for promotions or signups
  • Tracking links for Google or Facebook Ads
  • Custom or embedded web forms
  • Magic Forms for no-code capture and syncing

These tools make it easy to collect leads and begin nurturing them immediately—even before they show up in Mindbody.

DailyStory vs. Mindbody Marketing Suite: What you really get

Here’s a straightforward breakdown of how DailyStory compares to the Mindbody Marketing Suite:

  • Native Mindbody integration: Both platforms offer it, but DailyStory syncs every two hours and uses Mindbody as the single source of truth for data accuracy.
  • Email and SMS marketing: Available in both platforms, but DailyStory includes it in every plan, starting with the free tier.
  • Marketing automation: Mindbody charges up to $240 per month for automation features. DailyStory includes automation in every plan—even the free one.
  • Free plan availability: Mindbody Marketing Suite requires a paid add-on starting at $120 per month. DailyStory is free for up to 250 contacts, with no commitment.
  • Dynamic segmentation: Not available in Mindbody Marketing Suite. DailyStory creates and updates contact segments automatically based on changes in your Mindbody data.
  • Automation builder: Mindbody does not offer a visual builder. DailyStory includes an intuitive drag-and-drop automation builder in all plans.
  • Franchise and multi-location support: Limited support in Mindbody. DailyStory supports cross-regional logic, shared campaigns, and centralized performance tracking.
  • Lead tracking outside of Mindbody: Mindbody only tracks existing clients. DailyStory helps you manage and market to leads before they become members.
  • Pricing: Mindbody Marketing Suite adds between $120 and $300 to your subscription each month. DailyStory starts free, with paid plans from just $10 per month.

Franchise and multi-location support built in

If you manage multiple studios or franchise locations, DailyStory offers unique features that go far beyond what’s possible with Mindbody alone:

  • Cross-regional logic prevents duplicate messages when clients visit multiple locations
  • Shared campaigns allow you to create marketing once and distribute across all sites
  • Centralized reporting provides visibility into performance across every location

Easy setup, zero risk

DailyStory’s Mindbody integration is simple to activate, and we’ll handle most of the setup for you. Once connected, your Mindbody client data flows automatically into DailyStory so you can start building campaigns immediately.

“I have a lot of experience with a number of email marketing tools (like MailChimp, Emma and Constant Contact), but using DailyStory was such a leveling-up moment for my business.”

— Caren Roblin, Owner & Coach, Kaia FIT Sierra

You’ll get:

  • A mobile and desktop-friendly user experience
  • Access to helpful documentation
  • 24/7 live support included in every plan

Conclusion
