About This Automation

Rebooking and recall is the process of identifying clients who are overdue for their next appointment and reaching out to bring them back. Doing this manually demands constant list checking, personalized message writing, and repeated follow-up.

The automated version pulls overdue clients, ranks them by urgency, and sends personalized outreach without manual drafting. It tracks responses, follows up automatically, and produces a weekly rebooking report for review.

Key features:
Identifies clients overdue for their next appointment based on service history.
Ranks clients by recall urgency and expected service value.
Drafts personalized outreach messages referencing each client's usual service and therapist.
Sends reminders through the client's preferred contact channel.
Follows up automatically with clients who have not responded.
Compiles a weekly rebooking rate report for leadership review.
