Workflows & Automation

How to Build Smart Workflows in NexusGyms

Learn how to use Nexus Workflows to automate tasks like follow-ups, reminders, and re-engagements. Set it once, and let your systems run your business.

What Are Workflows?

Workflows are automated sequences that trigger when something happens — like a missed session or a new client signup. You define the logic once, and NexusGyms runs it for you.

Common Use Cases

  • New client welcome flow
  • Payment reminder 24h after due
  • No-show follow-up after missed session
  • Re-engagement message after 30 days inactivity
  • Upsell flow for long-term clients

How to Create a Workflow

  • Go to the Workflows tab
  • Click New Workflow
  • Choose a Trigger:
    • “Client Added”
    • “Session Missed”
    • “No activity for X days”
    • “Payment not received”

  • Choose an Action:
    • Send message
    • Add tag
    • Notify you
  • Save and activate the workflow

Best Practices for Workflow Design

  • Don’t overcomplicate — 1–2 steps is often enough
  • Use message templates to stay consistent
  • Add delays (e.g. 24h) to avoid spammy timing
  • Review workflows monthly to optimize performance

How to Test Workflows

Use a test client to simulate actions. You’ll see the workflow history under their profile to verify each step was triggered as expected.

Workflow Examples

  • Lead Conversion Flow: DM form fill → message → follow-up after 2 days
  • Win-Back Flow: No activity for 30 days → reminder message → tag as cold lead
  • Session Pack Upsell: After 10 sessions completed → send upgrade offer
