AUTOMATION PLAYBOOK

No-show recovery

When a visit is marked no-show, the playbook sends a discount SMS within hours and creates a “call back” task in CRM — no manual calendar digging.

Automatic follow-up when the client did not show up.

Trigger

Visit marked no-show

Automated flow

  1. 1 SMS with -10% code
  2. 2 “Call back” task in Pipedrive
  3. 3 Resend email with booking link

Example scenario

Client missed a massage. System sends -10% for the next visit; owner sees a Pipedrive task with call transcript notes.

After the call: No-show recovery

One recovered client per year often pays for the automation. The playbook runs while the team is busy on the floor.

When it runs

The playbook starts automatically when Coldbot tags a call or event as: “Visit marked no-show”. You can narrow filters (location, channel, business hours) without changing the voice script.

What happens automatically

Each step runs in sequence (or in parallel where noted). No copy-paste between voice AI, SMS gateway, and CRM.

What you configure

Tunable during onboarding — copy, thresholds, and channel priority:

Recommended integrations

Native connectors or Zapier/Make/webhooks. Status “coming soon” means we enable it on request during rollout.

Works with voice templates

Deploy these agent scripts together with the playbook — same disposition tags power both sides:

Onboarding checklist

We configure this playbook during Coldbot setup — usually in one working session:

Zapier / Make recipe

We export a starter automation: Coldbot webhook → your stack. Field mapping is done in onboarding.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a developer?

Not for standard stacks (SMSAPI, Google Calendar, HubSpot, Slack). Custom webhooks usually need about one hour of IT time.

Can we change copy and timing?

Yes — triggers, filters, SMS templates, and quiet hours are fully configurable in the dashboard or with our team.

Is this included in setup?

One playbook is configured during onboarding; additional playbooks are added per package or integration bundle.

How do we test before go-live?

Sandbox numbers, test calls, and a dry-run checklist — we do not enable production SMS until you approve samples.

Can the discount be one-time?

Yes — code expires and we do not resend within 30 days (cooldown).
