Ready to run your PG with less chaos?
Notice Broadcast Software for PG and Hostel Announcements
A notice broadcast is one announcement written once and delivered to the exact set of people you choose — the whole property, a single floor, or the guests staying tonight — over email and WhatsApp, scheduled for whenever suits, with an outcome recorded against every name it reached.
- Whole PG or chosen rooms
- Email + WhatsApp
- Schedule ahead
- Per-recipient delivery log
The tanker is late, the lift is down on Sunday, rent day has moved because the bank is shut. This is the traffic a property actually runs on, and most owners still push it through a group chat that a third of their tenants never joined, or a printed sheet taped by the stairs that nobody photographs. Both work right up to the moment someone says they were never told, and neither leaves anything you can point at.
- One message
- to every tenant you pick
- Live count
- recipients before you send
- Scheduled
- fires without you logged in
- Logged
- sent, failed and skipped
The problem
What PG owners struggle with today
Announcements are how a property actually runs: the tanker is late, the lift is down on Sunday, rent day moved because of a bank holiday. Most owners still send a notice to all PG tenants through a group half of them never joined, backed up by a printed sheet near the stairs that nobody stops to read.
- Tenants who never joined the WhatsApp group miss everything
- Messages meant for one floor get sent to the whole building
- Nobody can prove what was announced when a dispute starts
- Copy-pasting a phone list means somebody is always missed
- Announcements written at 11pm have to be sent at 11pm
- Short-stay guests living in the building hear nothing at all
How TrackMyPG solves it
Problem → solution mapping
Each pain point maps to a module that ships in the product today — not a roadmap promise.
Group nobody joined
Sent to the tenants your rule selects, on email and WhatsApp
Wrong audience
Everyone, active only, chosen rooms, by status — or current guests
No proof it was sent
A per-recipient, per-channel delivery record you can point at
Manual phone lists
Recipients resolved fresh at send time from live tenant data
Right message, wrong hour
Schedule it and it goes out on its own
Guests left out
The same notice can target current short-stay guests
Feature deep dive
What you get in the product
Every capability below ships in TrackMyPG today — no roadmap promises, no fake automation.
Pick exactly who hears it
Everyone currently staying, active tenants only, the tenants in chosen rooms, tenants by status, or your current guests.
A third-floor water notice does not reach the whole building.
- Live recipient count before sending
- Rules resolved at send time
- New arrivals included automatically
Email and WhatsApp together
Send on both channels, respecting what each tenant chose to receive and what the property has enabled.
Reach people where they actually read.
- Per-tenant preference honoured
- Title becomes the email subject
- Rich text with lists and links
Draft, schedule, send
Save a draft for a second pair of eyes, schedule for 9am tomorrow, or send now after a confirmation.
The announcement goes out on time without you awake for it.
- Reschedule or cancel while waiting
- Fires without anyone logged in
- Confirmation before a live send
Watch it go out
Live progress while a notice is in flight — percentage complete with sent, failed and skipped counts.
You know it landed before the questions start.
- Progress under the notice title
- Stop the remaining sends if needed
- Retry without messaging anyone twice
A record that holds up
Every recipient and channel is logged with its outcome and the reason when something was skipped.
Deposit and dispute conversations have evidence.
- Missing contact details flagged
- Provider failures recorded
- Searchable notice history
Guests hear it too
When short stays are enabled, a notice can target guests in-house — everyone, or just particular rooms.
People sleeping in your building learn about the water.
- All current guests
- Guests in chosen rooms
- Same compose screen
Workflow
Step-by-step in TrackMyPG
The same flow your desk runs every month — from tenant to report.
Write it once
A clear title — it becomes the email subject and the first WhatsApp line — and the message body.
Choose the audience
Whole PG, active tenants, specific rooms, tenant statuses, or current guests.
Check the count
The recipient count updates as you change the rule, so you see the blast radius first.
Pick channels
Email, WhatsApp or both — narrowed by each tenant’s own preference.
Send or schedule
Send now, or park it for a time at least a minute ahead and forget about it.
Check delivery
Watch live progress, then read the log for anything skipped or failed.
Benefits
Measurable outcomes on the ground
The whole property, or one floor
Target everyone, active tenants only, chosen rooms, a tenant status, or your current guests — and see the live recipient count before you commit to sending.
Email and WhatsApp together
One notice goes out over both channels, narrowed by what each tenant chose to receive, so nobody is messaged somewhere they asked not to be.
Schedule it and walk away
Park an announcement for 9 AM tomorrow and it fires on its own with nobody logged in. Watch sent, failed and skipped counts move while it runs.
Proof, not recollection
Every recipient and channel is stored with its outcome and the reason anything was skipped, which turns a disputed "nobody informed us" into a record you can open.
Outcomes
What operators report after adoption
- Fewer “nobody told us” conversations at the desk
- Announcements reaching tenants who never joined the group
- Room-specific notices that do not disturb the whole property
- Evidence of what was communicated when a dispute starts
- Announcements scheduled once instead of set as a personal alarm
- Short-stay guests informed alongside monthly tenants
