What this workflow is for

Appointment Confirmation and Reminders is the standard workflow pattern for confirming booked appointments and reminding the contact at the right times before the meeting.

What a good sequence should accomplish

Confirm the appointment quickly after booking.
Keep the conversation warm and human instead of robotic.
Remind the contact at useful intervals without over-messaging them.
Handle reschedules or no-reply cases gracefully.

What to think about before building it

How soon after booking the first confirmation should fire.
How close to the appointment your reminders should go out.
Whether sending hours or reminder windows could block or delay the intended message.
When links/media should be included vs held until after engagement.

Common mistakes

Using reminder timing that conflicts with the appointment time or sending hours.
Including heavy media or links too early.
Assuming the workflow is broken when the booking happened inside the configured reminder window.
Sending too many reminders instead of using a small number of well-timed touches.

How to verify it worked

Check enrollment timing after booking.
Confirm each reminder step ran at the intended interval.
If a reminder did not fire, inspect timing logic, sending hours, and the appointment window first.
