Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it send the welcome email on its own?

No. Every welcome message is saved as a Gmail Draft so you can personalise it further before hitting Send. Nothing goes to a student without your approval.

What if the same student enrols twice?

It checks the spreadsheet for the student's email address before logging. Returning students are noted but a new draft is only created for first-time enrolments.

Can it handle multiple courses at once?

Yes. It monitors all active courses on your Teachable school and handles enrolments across all of them in every run.

Put this on autopilot.
