Turn account signals into follow up reminders
Convert useful research into a next step that will not get lost.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Research can identify an opportunity without creating a reliable follow up habit.
- Connect insight to action
- Reduce forgotten follow ups
- Keep reminders close to daily work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bigpicture io and Slack in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named Account follow up reminders.
- 3Tell Notis to identify research with a clear next action and create a Slack reminder with the account, action and appropriate timing.
- 4Choose a recurring Notis cron schedule.
- 5Select a report channel and test with one account signal.
Questions about this workflow
Can reminders use natural language timing?
Yes. Specify timing such as tomorrow morning or three business days after the signal.
What if timing is unclear?
Ask Notis to report the item for review instead of creating an arbitrary reminder.
