Connect class enquiries, waitlists and member follow-through

Coordinate administrative requests around classes, appointments and memberships, while suitability and health-related decisions stay with the responsible practitioner.

For Studio owner, membership manager or bookings coordinator

Explore three real work situations ↓
How it could work

Start with a situation you recognise.

Illustrative designs to scope with your team. Select a scenario, then follow the normal path and the exception.

A new member is unsure which class they can join

Finished result

A supported booking choice or a complete suitability handover.

  1. 01Read approved class information
  2. 02Check membership access
  3. 03Collect scheduling preference
  4. 04Offer eligible booking path
When something does not fit

The class has a prerequisite that the member cannot confirm.

What happens next

Route to the instructor or studio team and retain the preferred times.

Inputs, checks and measurement
What starts the workflow
An enquiry asks about level, timetable and membership access.
Before taking action
Keep individual health and suitability questions out of routine automated advice.
Measure the change
Enquiry handling time and incorrect class bookings.

A late cancellation opens a place

Finished result

A filled eligible place or a recorded unfilled slot, without duplicate booking.

  1. 01Read available capacity
  2. 02Select eligible waitlist contact
  3. 03Send time-limited approved offer
  4. 04Recheck and confirm acceptance
When something does not fit

Two people accept nearly together or the replacement has an incompatible membership.

What happens next

Confirm only the valid held place and return others to the appropriate queue.

Inputs, checks and measurement
What starts the workflow
A confirmed class or appointment receives an eligible cancellation.
Before taking action
Use priority rules and one controlled reservation to avoid competing promises.
Measure the change
Waitlist admin time and eligible cancelled places filled.

A member stops attending after a service issue

Finished result

A resolved member issue with a permitted next step.

  1. 01Connect attendance and service history
  2. 02Identify unresolved commitment
  3. 03Assign recovery task
  4. 04Track agreed follow-through
When something does not fit

The membership is paused by request and should not receive a reactivation offer.

What happens next

Respect the pause and focus contact only on the unresolved request if appropriate.

Inputs, checks and measurement
What starts the workflow
Attendance declines while a support request remains unresolved.
Before taking action
Separate a service problem from an ordinary pause or seasonal attendance pattern.
Measure the change
Service resolution time and member follow-through; retention effects separately.
Fit before features

When custom work makes sense.

Use the booking platform’s native waitlist where it fits. Custom work helps when class eligibility, membership rules and service recovery span separate records.

Connect the records you already use

  • Class and appointment booking system
  • Membership terms and attendance
  • Approved service information and contact preferences

Access, data quality and write permissions are checked during scoping. Integration availability depends on your systems.

Go deeper

The systems behind these scenarios.

Controls, responsibility and recovery

Agree who can change rules, approve exceptions and authorise each write. Keep a history of source records, rule versions and action results. Detect partial failures, reconcile before retrying and assign unresolved cases to a named owner.

AI can extract, classify and prepare information. Validated rules and agreed permissions govern consequential actions; missing evidence triggers review. Test normal cases, exceptions and recovery against acceptance criteria before launch.

G3 is our founder’s retail and venue business in Melbourne. Explore relevant capabilities and their boundaries; your industry’s rules still need their own design and validation.

Questions worth asking first.

Start with a sanitised example, the result you need and one awkward case. We will map a bounded first implementation.

Can AI tell someone which treatment or exercise is safe?

No clinical or individual safety assessment is implied. The workflow shares approved service information and routes suitability questions to qualified staff.

Can a cancellation trigger an automatic waitlist offer?

Yes, within the configured eligibility, expiry and booking rules. Availability must be rechecked before the replacement booking is confirmed.

What stops two waitlist members from taking the same place?

Where the booking platform supports it, use one expiring hold linked to the offer and recheck the place before confirmation. Define priority, membership eligibility and what happens after a late acceptance. If the platform cannot confirm that the place is held for one member, keep final confirmation with staff or use a supported booking mechanism.

Can attendance follow-up distinguish a paused membership from a service problem?

Use attendance alongside membership pauses, preferred contact channels and unresolved requests. A requested pause should not automatically become a sales reactivation task. Start with one follow-up reason and have staff review the rules against real examples before enabling eligible messages or service-owner tasks.

Do we need an ongoing Canvo subscription?

No mandatory Canvo subscription. An agreed implementation includes 12 months of support for the delivered workflows, defects and minor compatibility changes to existing integrations. Optional proactive care and further development are scoped separately. Software, hosting and API costs remain separate.
