Yoooooo\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re like me and rock your biz as a Solopreneur you probably can relate to the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Struggling to keep yourself and clients on track;<\/li>
You and your clients are wondering if projects are completed;<\/li>
Not sure if emails were sent, opened, read, or responded to;<\/li>
Sifting through tons of emails to track down responses and\/or files;<\/li>
Not sure when was the last time you spoke to a lead;<\/li>
Unable to onboard staff and\/or VAs to help you in your business; and\/or<\/li>
Taking a vacation\/break from your business feels like an impossible dream<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Struggling Just Managing My Business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
After I invested financially in improving how I operated, I need to now invest the time to learn how to best use the system for my own business.<\/p>Charlene V. Brown, Full-Stack Web Developer & Brand Consultant<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Juggling various platforms to handle your invoices, project, client, & file management, team progress, email outreach, and biz backend processes 2019 was a breaking point for me because I just wasn\u2019t feeling the task of tracking down clients and wondering what they were doing or if they received and viewed contracts, etc. I needed a solid place to not only speak to my clients but also manage their files and overall progress through my system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shyt, my system needed a dang system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Recognizing I Needed Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I heard about a few systems and tried most of them out of desperation. Then I heard about Dubsado and things just looked and felt different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was hoping it was then simply another pretty face. I needed this bad boy to be highly functional and RELIABLE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I invested (you know how I feel about investing in yourself) and I put my processes in writing and began mapping out what I needed this system to handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Investing More Than Money<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
After I invested financially in improving how I operated, I need to now invest the time to learn how to best use the system for my own business. Once I got my process cleared out and written out into a legible framework, I started watching everything Dubsado<\/a> did on Youtube and even watched some key folks like Krystal Clark<\/a> who mastered the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once the COVID drama hit early 2020 that forced me to sit down and actually start plugging into the system and making it work in my business.
So once I had my process down, I had to begin creating the packages, emails, and assets that needed to all accompany each other so they could all be delivered at the appropriate times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is very critical to me as it allows me to level up in my business, brand, & purpose and focus on serving my clients more effectively while my automated system works efficiently in the backend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"How$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
All Systems A Go and I’m Geeked!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The first time my emails were going out to clients I was so geeked out & I still am! All because I knew I finally found a system that was doing, not only what I wanted, but what I NEEDED it to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From start to finish I can comfortably funnel clients and prospects into my world without feeling bootlegged and disconnected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My file collection, delivery systems, project tracking are all in one place so not only myself but clients can follow the entire project from on-boarding to off-boarding and feel like there are transparency and cohesive flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Final Rundown<\/font><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I am so excited about having Dubsado as part of my toolkit and I can\u2019t wait to level up even more as my business and brand grow!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want to stop struggling & start leveling up your business & brand – level up your system!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dubsado has been a game-changer for Bklyn Custom Designs! Try it out (or another automated system) for yourself! Either way, get some automation in your life & business so you too can stop struggling.!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
