How do I run weekly client check-ins on Discord?

Updated · Coaching

Create a #weekly-check-ins forum, give each client one post titled with their name, and have them reply in it every week using a pinned five-line format. Use tags like Needs reply and Replied so you can filter what's waiting. Forum posts are visible to all clients who can see the forum, so use private rooms for anything sensitive.

Your weekly routine

  1. Filter the forum by Needs reply.
  2. Reply in each post, then switch the tag to Replied.
  3. Pull wins into #wins (with permission).
  4. Note patterns in #coach-notes.

Quick answers

Can other clients see check-ins?
Yes, if they can see the forum. For private check-ins use one private channel per client instead.
How do I remind clients?
A recurring Scheduled Event on check-in day, or a scheduled message from a bot.
Does this work for group programs?
Yes. Group clients often like seeing each other's progress.
