In short

How do I remind students before an upcoming knitting class?

WebRun checks your Rain POS class schedule every morning, finds knitting classes in the next two days, and reads each roster, room, and supply list. After confirming times in Google Calendar, it drafts every signed-up student a reminder text in Twilio and queues it, so you approve the batch before any text reaches a student.

  • Students arrive prepared with the right supplies
  • Fewer empty seats and last-minute no-shows
  • Every text waits for your approval before it sends

Questions, answered

Will it text students without me?

No. Every reminder text is queued for your approval in Twilio. You review the batch and release it, so nothing reaches a student until you say so.

What details go in the reminder?

The class name, date, time, room, and the supply list, pulled live from Rain POS. Each text is short, friendly, and matches your shop voice.

What if a student canceled or was moved?

It reads the live roster in Rain POS each morning, so anyone who canceled or switched sessions is skipped and never texted.
