Funnels: What They Are, Where They Came From, and Why Most Are Built Backward

A funnel is not a website. It’s not a single email. It’s not an overpriced software platform someone tried to sell you in a webinar. It’s the journey someone takes from “Who are you?” → “This is interesting...” → “I need this in my life” → “Take my money.”

When is the "Right" Time to Work on Your Business

You’re technically working “on your business” all the time, but what about the time you take out to learn from someone else? To get new insights and ideas, what to do differently, growth strategies and guidance? Your schedule is so full that you hardly even have time to do the things outside of work that you enjoy, much less focus on business education.

The thing is, how many other things are you waiting until that calendar space opens up for you to get to it?

Keep reading to find out when is actually the right time to work on your business and the importance of actively prioritizing education, so you can start seeing drastic changes quickly.

How to Automate and Personalize Your Client Experience Using Dubsado

As a service provider whose calendar is quickly filling to the brim, it’s imperative to find ways to free up space so that you can feel less stressed and overwhelmed, plus have more time to take care of your clients. The key method of getting back as much time as possible is automation.

Automation, quite simply, is when you put certain tasks or processes on autopilot in your business. (Personally, any and everything that’s able to be automated, we automate it.) These tasks either completely run on their own, or they require extremely little effort from you to make it happen.

The Beginner’s Guide to Dubsado

Dubsado boasts proudly that they’re an all-in-one CRM (as they should), but we understand that it’s common to get a bit scared at that thought. What will you do with all of the features?
