Navigating the Automation Module
The Automation module is where you can edit your CRM's automated messages and workflows. Inside, you'll find different folders for various functions:
Reminders: Contains workflows for appointment reminders.
No-Show Reminders: Workflows for clients who miss an appointment.
Reputation: Workflows for review requests.
Opportunities: Workflows related to the sales pipeline.
Editing an Existing Workflow
To change the content of an automated message, follow these steps:
Click on the "Reminders" folder, then select a specific workflow, like "General Ask to Confirm."
Inside the workflow, find the message you want to edit (e.g., the initial SMS).
Click the message to open a text panel. You can then edit the content.
The messages use Custom Values (like
{{contact.first_name}}
) that automatically pull information from a client’s profile or appointment details.After making your changes, click "Save Action" to apply them.
Changing the Timing of a Message
You can also control when a message is sent out:
In the workflow, click the "Wait" step, which dictates the delay before a message is sent.
Change the time from the default (e.g., 24 hours) to a new value (e.g., 2 days).
Click "Save Action." The system will now send that reminder message based on the new timing you set.
