Substitute Instructor Advance Notification
A done-for-you fitness and wellness automation built for the Instructor Coordinator, connecting Twilio so the work below happens on its own.
What this automation does, step by step
If the regularly scheduled instructor for a class is swapped for a substitute, every member booked into that class automatically receives a heads-up notification ahead of time, instead of members finding out only when they arrive and discover someone unfamiliar teaching.
The instructor coordinator no longer has to manually track down and notify every affected booking by hand, and members consistently appreciate the advance notice, even when it doesn't change their decision to attend, simply because nobody likes an unexplained surprise at the front of the room.
- Studio management software (e.g., Mindbody or Pike13)
- Zapier or Make.com
- Twilio (SMS reminders)
Using different software? We build around what you already have, so you never have to switch tools to automate.
The manual way vs. the automated way
Without automation
Without this system, an instructor coordinator manually pieces together information from different places, then has to relay it to everyone who needs it. It rarely feels urgent in the moment, but it adds up fast.
With this automation
- Status updates triggered by real milestones in your systems
- Support requests routed to the right owner with full context
- Escalations when a response deadline is about to slip
- Fewer inbound status calls for your front desk
