In short

How do I remind rental customers about their upcoming pickup?

WebRun opens Booqable every morning and finds every reservation set for pickup today or tomorrow. It drafts a friendly reminder email for each customer in Gmail and posts your counter staff a Slack prep list sorted by pickup time, so gear is pulled and ready and reminders go out before anyone forgets their booking.

  • Pickup reminders are drafted before the counter opens each morning
  • Staff see a ready prep list in Slack sorted by pickup time
  • No customer reminder goes out without a human review

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email customers without a staff member checking first?

No. WebRun drafts every pickup reminder in Gmail and leaves it unsent. A staff member reviews and sends it, so no customer receives a message without a human check first.

How does it decide which reservations need a reminder?

It reads live pickup dates in Booqable each morning and includes anything due today or tomorrow, skipping reservations already reminded in the past 24 hours to avoid duplicate messages.

What if a customer cancels before their pickup?

WebRun reads the live reservation status in Booqable on every run, so a cancelled reservation is automatically skipped and will not appear on the prep list.

Put this on autopilot.
