Questions, answered

Will it email my customers without me?

Never. Every reminder is saved as a Gmail draft and waits for you to review and send. Nothing leaves your outbox on its own.

What does the reminder say?

A short, professional nudge with the invoice number, amount, and due date. Give WebRun a sample or a tone guide and it will match your voice exactly.

What about invoices that were paid after the run started?

WebRun reads live QuickBooks data at run time, so already-paid invoices are excluded automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
