Repetitive Mindbody work Flann takes off your plate
These are the jobs that come back every day or every week. Message Flann instead, and keep the decisions for yourself.
Class timetable questions
Today
Members ask whether a class is on, full or moved. Each answer means checking the timetable and replying by hand.
With Flann
“Is Tuesday’s spin class full? How many spaces are left?”
Flann reads the timetable and bookings in Mindbody and answers immediately. If a member is waiting to hear back, it drafts a reply for you.
What you stop doing: Member questions no longer send you into the timetable.
Answers from your own training material
Today
New staff ask questions your training course already answers. Finding the right lesson to point them to takes longer than just answering.
With Flann
“Where in Mindbody do we cover opening checks? Send me the lesson.”
Flann searches your material in Mindbody and finds the lesson that covers it, with the key points summarised. You can forward the link yourself or ask Flann to send it to the staff member.
What you stop doing: The same training question stops being answered from memory.
