How to Automate Attaching a Meal Plan PDF to your Clients using Zapier

 

Create a Zap that will automatically deliver a meal plan to a client when they purchase a product or when the product starts. The process is similar for both triggers. 

 

Note: If you select New Purchase, the meal plan will be attached immediately to the client's profile when they make purchase. If you select Product Start, the meal plan will be attached only when on the start date of a product.  

 

Step 1 - Upload your meal plan PDF online

  • Upload your meal plan PDF to an online storage like Google Drive or Dropbox
