Priority Meetings: Give VIP Customers Fast Access to Your Calendar

A high-value customer gets a WhatsApp with priority meeting times as buttons. They tap one, and Notis creates an urgent calendar event marked as high priority, escalating it above regular commitments.

Trigger

Interactive Reply Received

Triggered when a customer taps a quick-reply button or selects an option from an interactive list message you sent.

Action

Create Event

Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

Why this helps

VIP clients expect responsiveness, but neurodivergent founders often don't prioritize these differently, leading to missed opportunities or upset important relationships. Separating urgent from routine meetings requires intentional systems.

  • VIP customers feel prioritized and respond quickly
  • Urgent meetings get best calendar slots
  • Reduces response time for high-value clients
  • Prevents accidentally deprioritizing key relationships

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect WhatsApp Business Account and Google Calendar to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'Priority Level Booking', Trigger set to 'Interactive Reply Received'.
  • 3Tell Notis: 'When a VIP customer selects a time from a priority meeting message, create a Google Calendar event marked as high-priority (color: red or mark as urgent), block it for 60 minutes, and send me an immediate notification so I can prepare.'
  • 4Set up VIP customer recognition in the automation (by contact name or group).
  • 5Test by sending a VIP customer a priority meeting message and selecting a slot.

Questions about this workflow

How do I mark a customer as VIP?

You can configure it by contact name, group, company, or a tag in your CRM. Notis will recognize VIPs and offer them priority slots.

Should regular customers get different time options?

Yes, you can have separate message flows: standard times for regular customers, premium times for VIPs.

Can I exclude time blocks from VIP booking?

Yes, you can reserve certain times for yourself. Just configure which slots VIPs can choose from.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Whatsapp to Google Calendar. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Whatsapp triggers

Google Calendar actions

Message Status Updated

Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
