Automated school fees reminders for Zimbabwe via Twilio + n8n
# School-Fees-Reminder
Automated school fees reminders for Zimbabwe via Twilio + n8n
## Problem
Private schools lose 30-60% revenue to late fees. Secretaries waste 40hrs/month calling parents. Kids get sent home with letters.
## Solution
Google Sheets → n8n → Twilio WhatsApp API. Auto-texts parents 7 days before due date. Cost: $0.008/text. ROI: 4000% if 1 kid pays.
## Demo
