Reminders
Reduce no-shows with better reminders
Timing, wording and a reschedule link — the three things that matter most.

Most no-shows aren't rude — people forget, or their plans changed and moving the meeting felt like more effort than skipping it.
Send two reminders
One a day before gives people time to reschedule. One an hour before catches the ones who simply forgot. Send them on WhatsApp if your guests are in India — open rates are far higher than email.
Make rescheduling easy
Every udaybooking reminder includes a reschedule link. A moved meeting is far better than an empty slot.
Measure it
Mark bookings that didn’t happen as no-show. It is one of the statuses every booking carries, so you can see whether reminders are actually working rather than guessing.
Keep the message short
- What the meeting is.
- When it is, in their timezone.
- How to join.
- How to move it.
