Reported experience

  1. What they did

    They built two n8n workflows around a Google Sheet. One triggers when a new booking is marked for onboarding, pulls that client’s upcoming sessions, creates a temporary Google Doc, turns it into a personalized PDF, emails the welcome pack with the trainer CC’d, then updates the sheet so it cannot resend; a second 8am workflow checks for sessions 30 or 7 days out and repeats the PDF-and-email process for reminders.

  2. How it went

    The result was that every client automatically got a welcome pack plus 30-day and 7-day reminders with no manual sending. The post says it works well, but gives no hard metrics and the author still thinks parts could be structured more cleanly.

  3. Worth knowing

    The main catch is the temporary-file PDF pipeline: it creates a Google Doc, converts it, attaches it, and deletes it afterward so Drive does not fill up.

Example prompts

Try with n8n
Build an n8n workflow that triggers when a new row is added to my Google Sheet [sheet name] with client name, email, and [program details]. Generate a PDF training schedule from a template, email it to the client with a short welcome message, schedule reminder emails on [days], and delete the temporary PDF afterward. Test it with a dummy row sent to my own email before enabling it for real clients.
