Client Progress & Goal Tracking

Q: Can the automation handle responses from multiple channels like email and messaging?

Yes. The system monitors email and messaging channels simultaneously, extracts progress data from all incoming responses, and consolidates them into a single client record.

Q: Will the automation work with our existing CRM and spreadsheets?

The automation integrates with mainstream CRM and spreadsheet tools. Your existing client data and records are preserved and updated automatically.

Q: How does the system identify clients who are falling behind on their goals?

The automation compares reported progress against each client's goal targets and flags those who are off track or at risk. Coaches receive an alert so they can prioritize intervention.

Q: Do coaches still need to review and approve the personalized check-in messages?

Coaches can review and customize message templates before the automation sends them. Once templates are set, messages are generated and sent automatically based on each client's profile.

Keep every coaching client's goals, milestones, and check-ins in sync without chasing spreadsheets or digging through old notes.

Consolidate all client updates into a single tracking system without manual retyping

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Weekly Check-In Scheduledtrigger

The automation runs every Monday morning or on a custom schedule set by the coach. It identifies all active clients due for a progress check-in.

2. Fetch Client Goals

The automation retrieves each client's active goals, targets, and previous progress data to personalise the check-in request.

3. Generate Personalised Check-In

The automation composes a personalised check-in message for each client, including their specific goals and context from the previous week.

4. Send Check-In via Email

The automation sends the personalised check-in email to each client, logging the send timestamp.

5. Monitor Email Replies

The automation monitors incoming replies to the check-in email address and captures responses as they arrive.

6. Extract Progress Data

The automation reads each client response, extracts the progress update, and structures it into a standard format for analysis.

7. Update Client Record

The automation logs the progress update, calculates on-track status, and updates the client record with the latest data and timestamp.

8. Send Alert to Coach

The automation sends a notification to the coach summarising the week's progress, flagging at-risk clients, and listing non-responders for manual follow-up.
