Send automated meeting reminder phone calls on day of the meeting

We have a Zap that waits for new rows on a Google spreadsheet and sends and emails reminder the day of the meeting to one or more employees. 

 

Sometimes these emails go to the spam folder, or the employee is not near the computer to read them. Many have asked for an automated phone call as a reminder. 

 

What would you say is the cheapest and easiest way to do this with Zap? I mean, what service provider would you suggest we sue?

Hi @dialing system

@Troy Tessalone 

Great, thanks.

 

do you know how we can make automatic messages (what software) with the date of the meetings?

For example, if on the calendar there are 10 meetings today, the system should dial each person on the spreadsheet and remind them of the meeting. In other words, is there a way for Zapier and Twilio to work together and create automated messages for the employees, or do we have to records each message?
