Catch Botdog campaigns that may be stalled

A scheduled review can surface Botdog campaigns that appear inactive and leave you with one clear Slack reminder to investigate.

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

Campaigns can lose momentum while attention shifts between outreach work and other founder priorities.

  • Create a recurring checkpoint for campaign activity.
  • Focus attention on campaigns that may need investigation.
  • Keep the review cue in Slack instead of relying on a separate manual check.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Botdog and Slack once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis and name it for campaign review.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review available campaign activity and create a Slack reminder for campaigns that appear stalled, noting any missing evidence.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real campaign example and adjust the instruction if its status is unclear.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis know whether a campaign is stalled?

Only if Botdog data available to the automation includes activity or status that supports that assessment. The instruction should call out missing evidence rather than assume a baseline.

Can I choose how often it runs?

Yes. Choose a recurring schedule when setting the Notis cron trigger.

Will it change the Botdog campaign?

No. This workflow reviews campaign information and creates a Slack reminder; it does not modify the campaign.
