About This Automation

Studio managers manually track client sessions, compile email lists, and send review requests days or weeks after classes end. Referral tracking is inconsistent, duplicates are common, and thank-the team messages are often skipped.

Automation captures completed sessions in real time, sends personalized review requests within minutes, logs all referrals to a central system, and automatically thanks clients who refer new members. The result is higher review volume, accurate referral tracking, and stronger client relationships.

Key features
Monitor session completions and trigger review requests automatically within minutes of class end
Personalize review requests based on class type and client attendance history
Capture referral submissions through a form and log them to a central database
Send thank-you messages to referrers immediately upon referral capture
Track referral conversion from submission through membership signup
Identify and flag top advocates for recognition and rewards

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Session Completion Detectedtrigger

A client checks out or a class is marked complete in the booking system. The automation platform receives this event via API or webhook.

2. Fetch Client Details

The automation retrieves the client's name, email, and session details from the booking system or CRM.

3. Send Review Request

A personalised review request email is sent to the client immediately after their session, with direct links to Google, Yelp, and Facebook review pages.

4. Create Referral Form Link

A Google Form is generated and sent to the client asking them to refer a friend. The form captures the referrer's name, the referred person's name and email, and relationship.

5. Log Referral

When a referral form is submitted, the automation logs the referral as a contact record with the referrer and referred person linked.

6. Send Thank-You to Referrer

An automated thank-you email is sent to the referrer, acknowledging their recommendation and offering a referral incentive or discount code.

7. Update Referral Tracker

The referral data is automatically appended to a Google Sheet, including referrer name, referred person, date, and conversion status. The sheet updates in real time.

8. Post Referral Alert

When a referral is logged, a message is sent to the studio manager with the referrer's name and referred person's details, so the team can follow up if needed.
