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.”

How to Host a Virtual Team Mixer or Holiday Party

Not being in the physical presence of team members means that there’s a bit more extra work involved to make sure everyone feels connected. You can absolutely still have a closely knit virtual team, and we absolutely love the workspace tone we’ve set with our team!

One of the ways we get in some much-needed face time is by hosting virtual team mixers. Since the holidays are coming up hot, hosting a virtual holiday party is the perfect way to get your team members chatting and connecting with each other outside of the usual workplace communication!

Keep reading to find out exactly how we host our virtual team mixers, plus some team building questions to ask to keep everyone engaged!

The BEST Tool to Help Land High-Paying Clients Consistently

The biggest struggles we’ve seen service providers face includes difficulty landing high-paying clients consistently. They may land just one or two clients per month at their highest package, but the rest always fall on the smaller scale. This can lead to just breaking even each month, which leads to feelings of discouragement, worry, and self doubt.

But before we say “Just raise your prices!”, we understand that there are other steps that go into that as well. Part of being able to offer a premium package is providing more value through your client experience. That may sound to you like you need to start holding your clients’ hands more or putting more of your time into how you take care of them, but that simply isn’t the case.

You can completely transform your business with one single tool that we’re going to share with you in this blog post!

Dubsado vs. HoneyBook Feature and Interface Comparison

There are two top dogs in the CRM game right and now, and they’re crushing it: Dubsado and HoneyBook. About half of the service providers you talk to will be Team Dubsado, while the other half are Team HoneyBook.

No matter which team you choose, though, having a CRM is a massively important piece of running a service-based business. You need some type of system to help you streamline your processes, leads, client communication, and more, and either of these platforms will help you do so.

So, which team are we? Today we’re going to dive into comparing Dubsado vs. HoneyBook’s features and interface. For us and many others we know, these are the two main deal breakers when it comes to choosing any sort of software, not just CRMs. Keep reading if you want to find out who comes out on top!
