Automated Workiz No-Show Recovery Drafts

The moment a technician marks a job as a no-show in Workiz, WebRun drafts a friendly reschedule email in Gmail and a shorter follow up text in Twilio, both offering a new appointment window, and leaves both drafts for your office to review before either one reaches the customer.

In short

How do I win back a customer who no-shows on their duct cleaning appointment?

The moment a technician marks a job No Show in Workiz, WebRun drafts a friendly reschedule email in Gmail and a shorter follow up text in Twilio, both offering new appointment windows. Both drafts wait unsent for your office to review, so a missed appointment turns into a fast reschedule attempt instead of a lost job.

  • A reschedule offer goes out within the hour instead of the lead going cold overnight
  • Two channels are ready so your office can pick whichever gets a faster reply
  • Repeat no-shows are flagged so your team can decide on a phone call instead

Questions, answered

Will it contact the customer without my office reviewing it?

No. Both the email and the text are saved as unsent drafts. Your office reviews and sends whichever one fits, so a no-show customer never hears from WebRun directly.

Why draft both an email and a text?

Different customers respond to different channels, and a no-show already missed one touch point. Having both ready means your office can pick whichever is more likely to get a reply.

Does it treat a repeat no-show differently?

Yes. It flags whether this is the customer's first no-show or a repeat, so your office can decide whether a reschedule offer or a phone call is the better next step.
