Automated Climbing Gym Event Registration Reminders

Every morning in the 14 days before a scheduled competition or event, WebRun opens Approach, checks current registration numbers against capacity, identifies active members who have not yet registered, drafts a personalised event reminder email for each one, and posts a registration status update to Slack so staff know where spots stand.

In short

How do I automatically send climbing gym event and competition registration reminders?

WebRun checks Approach every morning in the 14 days before a competition or event, reviews current registration numbers against capacity, drafts a personalised reminder for each unregistered active member, and posts a registration status update to Slack for staff to approve before any message is sent, so events fill up with timely, targeted outreach.

  • Events with low registration flagged early, with 14 days of runway to fill spots
  • Members who already registered are excluded from reminder outreach automatically
  • No reminder sent to any member without a staff member reviewing and approving it

Questions, answered

Will it send event reminders to members without staff approval?

No. Every reminder is saved as a Gmail draft and listed in Slack for review. No email reaches a member until a staff member approves and sends it.

Does it run for all events or only competitions with low registration?

It runs for every event in Approach within 14 days and flags events that are under 50 percent full with 7 or fewer days to go, so staff can focus effort where it is needed most.

What if a member registers after the draft email is created?

WebRun reads the live registration list in Approach each morning, so anyone who registered overnight is removed from the next day's reminder list automatically.
