Building My First AI App (and Why You Don't Need to Be a Developer to Do It)

I’m officially building my first Al app. No code. No hoodie-wearing co-founder. Just me, my idea, a no-code tool called Lovable.dev, and two years of quietly training an Al on everything I know about marketing, messaging, and digital products.

How to Start Charging More for Your Services So You Can Work Less

When you think of how you can free up time and make more in your service-based business, what comes to mind first? Your most likely goes to what all the online business marketers are preaching:

Grow your list and audience.
Offer a low price point product.
Make it digital so it’s passive.

But the reality check here is that right there isn’t the fastest way for you to make more and work less (quite the opposite, actually).

So have you ever looked at your services and what you’re currently charging? Have you worked backwards on how much you say you want to make vs. what you’re actually charging?

The real key to putting your life first in your business again is to know exactly what you need to charge + how many clients you need to work with in order to reach your goals. Let’s break it down in this blog post!

Marketing your business as a service provider can be super nerve wracking and awkward. You might be thinking, “So I’m just supposed to talk about how good I am all day long and hope people believe me?”

What is a VIP Client Experience + How to Create One Easily

As a service provider, besides delivering your services well, there’s only one other thing that can truly make or break your business. It all ties into how you make your clients feel while working with you, or you may also know it as your client experience.

If you want the technical definition, the client experience is the sum of all interactions a client has with you. It involves every single stage of the client journey, from before they’ve even booked you yet!

The goal is to create a total VIP client experience to make your clients feel like they’re receiving top-notch, exclusive services. And today, we’re going to show you how you can create a VIP client experience and why it’s so important!

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.

When it comes to serving clients, we’re big on making sure you’re providing an exceptional client experience, care, and value through your services.

5 of Our Favorite Lesser-Known Dubsado Features

If you know anything at all about us over here at Boss Project, you know that we’re long-time Dubsado fans. Before we transitioned to digital courses years ago and were still offering services, Dubsado was our go-to. Now, we’ve kept up with the software updates and new features, and it’s the #1 CRM we recommend to service providers looking to organize and streamline their business.

While we’re positive it would win you over at the major, more well-known features (think workflows, forms, the client portal), it’s the smaller features that will have you shouting from the rooftops about Dubsado. That’s why we want to talk about 5 of our favorite lesser-known Dubsado features and how to use them!

Our 5 Favorite Ways to Repurpose Content in 2021 (Number 3 will surprise you!)

We have content come out monthly in many places. It feels like we’re posting everywhere all the time, but it’s what works for us and helps us get our message across to more people in more places. On an average monthly basis, we have 8-10 blog posts, around 15 Instagram feed posts (not including daily Stories), 12+ total emails, 8-10 podcast episodes, and multiple posts to our Facebook groups.

For a small business, this is a LOT of content, which means a lot of time creating it. However, we definitely aren’t creating a lot of it from scratch. The key to saving time with content creation is to repurpose as much as you can. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel with everything you post!

So, in this blog post, we’re going to break down our top 5 favorite ways to repurpose content in 2021. (Spoiler alert: Number 3 will surprise you!)
