Day-before reminder
Send a personalized video about 24 hours before the appointment so the recipient remembers the booking and knows what to expect.
Appointment no-show reminder videos
Use this workflow when standard reminder emails and texts keep getting ignored. BHuman helps teams send more personal pre-appointment reminders that improve show rates without making every rep, coordinator, or CSM record one video at a time.
Trigger ideas
Send a personalized video about 24 hours before the appointment so the recipient remembers the booking and knows what to expect.
Use a shorter reminder a few hours before the slot to reduce last-minute drop-off.
Give recipients an easy path to move the appointment rather than no-show if the timing no longer works.
Personalization
| Field | Example | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| first_name | Maya | Makes the reminder feel direct and personal instead of transactional. |
| appointment_date | April 14 | Anchors the message to the actual booking so there is no ambiguity. |
| appointment_time | 2:30 PM | Helps cut down avoidable misses caused by simple timing confusion. |
| host_name | Alex | Reinforces who the recipient will meet, which makes the appointment feel more real. |
| prep_step | bring your insurance card | Useful when attendees need one action before the meeting or appointment starts. |
| reschedule_link | https://calendly.com/alex/reschedule | Turns a likely no-show into a reschedule, which is usually a better outcome. |
Setup
Start with one appointment type such as sales demos, onboarding calls, consultations, or service bookings rather than every calendar event at once.
Use the date, time, host, prep step, and reschedule link so the recipient gets a reminder that is clear and actionable.
Keep the message calm and direct. The goal is to confirm attendance, reduce confusion, and make rescheduling easy if needed.
Most teams start with a day-before and same-day reminder, then adjust timing based on show-rate data.

Copy ideas
Use these as starting points, then adapt the tone to your team and workflow.
Use this 24 hours before the scheduled appointment or demo.
Hi {{first_name}}, just sending a quick reminder that you are booked in with {{host_name}} on {{appointment_date}} at {{appointment_time}}. If there is one thing to do before we meet, it is to {{prep_step}}. If you need to move the time, you can do that here: {{reschedule_link}}.
Use this a few hours before the appointment when no-shows are common.
Hi {{first_name}}, quick note before your appointment with {{host_name}} today at {{appointment_time}}. Looking forward to it. If anything changed and you need a different time, here is the reschedule link: {{reschedule_link}}.
Use this when someone has not confirmed and may be at risk of not showing up.
Hi {{first_name}}, just checking in before {{appointment_date}} at {{appointment_time}}. If the timing still works, great. If not, no problem, you can move it here instead of missing the slot: {{reschedule_link}}.

FAQ
The most common starting points are 24 hours before and again on the same day, especially for appointments with meaningful no-show risk.
Usually both. The message should confirm the booking, remind the person what is happening, and make rescheduling easy if the time no longer works.
Sales demos, onboarding sessions, consultations, check-ins, and service appointments all work well when attendance matters.
