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!)

Everything you need to know about Idea Pins and how to use them

Pinterest never fails to surprise us with its new features, and the most recent release has been Idea Pins. Although they’re a new feature on Pinterest, it’s a similar feature to what we’ve seen on other platforms as well. According to Pinterest, Idea Pins are “an evolution of Story Pins”, a feature they beta tested in 2020.

Since video is the new wave of content with platforms like TikTok serving as the stepping stone to other apps falling in line (take Instagram Reels and Video Pins, for example), we’re starting to see more and more popular platforms release their own takes on these loveable features, Idea Pins being the newest rendition of Stories on Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook.


But what about Idea Pins makes it different from its competition, how will it improve your experience on Pinterest, and how do you use them? Keep reading as we answer these questions in this blog post!

Why You Should Create Long Form Content in 2021

You’ve likely heard some mixed things about creating long-form content as a marketing strategy for your business. Some say it’s worth the time, others disagree.

Some people say it’s worth it for SEO purposes-- stuffing a bunch of keywords into some fluff so you can rank higher on Google, and others believe it’s a great tactic of actually engaging with and building a reputation and relationship with your audience.

Of course, we believe the latter… Maybe even a little of both? While it’s a must to make sure your SEO is optimized to help your website traffic and search engine rankings, it’s equally or more important that the content is actually providing value and that your audience will take something away from it.

So, why should you create long-form content in 2021? And what does that word “long-form” really mean?
