Automated RV Recurring Service Reminder Drafts
Every Monday, WebRun checks IDS Astra for customers whose last service visit was more than six months ago or who purchased a unit over a year ago without any service record, drafts an SMS reminder via Twilio for each, logs them in a Google Sheet, and holds every message for a service advisor to review before sending.
How do I automatically remind RV customers when they are due for service?
WebRun checks IDS Astra every Monday for RV customers overdue for service, logs them in a Google Sheet, and drafts personalised SMS reminders via Twilio for each. Every message is held in a review queue until the service advisor approves it, so no outreach goes to a customer without a human check.
- Service-due customers are identified automatically every week without manual list pulls
- No customer receives a reminder more than once every 60 days
- Every message is reviewed by a human before reaching the customer

Questions, answered
Will it text customers without the service advisor checking first?
No. Every SMS is queued as a Twilio draft and held until the service advisor reviews and approves it. Nothing reaches a customer without a human sign-off.
How does it know which customers to contact?
WebRun reads the service history in IDS Astra and flags anyone whose last visit is more than six months ago. You can adjust the threshold during setup to match your service intervals.
What stops it from contacting the same customer every week?
Once a customer is flagged and an outreach is logged in the sheet, they are excluded from the next 60 days of runs automatically.
