1.Triggers on event start
Integrate Google Calendar and calendar scheduling to trigger when a configured event start approaches for checklist reminders
Send 48-hour prep checklist reminders to event attendees
Automatically monitor event start times across Google Calendar, Formatter by Zapier, Filter by Zapier, Delay by Zapier, and Gmail. Send 48-hour checklist reminders when event start approaches, event descriptions update, or attendee emails populate—so you can calculate send time, filter incomplete prep, and deliver checklist emails without manual follow-up.
How this automation schedules prep checklist reminders
When event start reminders are handled manually, attendees miss critical prep windows and checklists never get seen. This automation triggers from Google Calendar event start, transforms the send schedule, filters incomplete prep events, delays delivery, and sends attendee checklist emails—so you can protect preparation time.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier hilft uns, weit über 50% mehr Deals abzuschließen, als wir es ohne Zapier tun würden. Es ist ein Schlüsselelement unserer Gesamtstrategie und somit auch unseres Verkaufsarguments.
