Reach out to quiet members with a thoughtful check-in
Review a small batch of check-in drafts that use your chosen inactivity rule and member context.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Members can go quiet without a clear point in your routine to notice and reconnect.
- Make re-engagement reviews routine
- Use your own definition of inactivity
- Review each message before sending
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to draft a friendly check-in for members meeting the inactivity criteria and list supplied for the run.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and select an appropriate review cadence.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one member whose activity status is known.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis determine inactivity from member activity?
Only if the source returns the relevant activity information or you provide a qualifying member list and criteria.
Does the workflow email inactive members?
No. It creates drafts for human review.
