Do you want to work less and achieve more?
Well, today, I will show you how to use automations to grow your credit repair business faster!
What are automations? Automation is just a fancy term for a process or system designed to run automatically. In business, automations are tools that handle repetitive and time-consuming tasks quickly and easily.
For small businesses, these automated systems are game-changers and lifesavers. They tackle everything from scheduling meetings to sending marketing emails while cutting costs and improving efficiency.
These tools lighten the workload for small business owners and allow them to focus on big-picture goals like generating leads, sales, and growth.
There are thousands and thousands of automated software tools available, and it's like having an army of digital assistants working for you. The only challenge is figuring out which ones to use and how to set them up.
HOW THIS RELATES TO US?
Credit Repair is a very repetitive business. Most companies use the same factual dispute method and the same customer onboarding processes. It's a job that requires organization, accuracy, and perfect timing - all things that Automations are designed to improve.
Most small business owners start out trying to do everything themselves. But we're human. We can't work all the time. We need to eat, sleep, and sometimes we get sick. But automations don't! They allow you to be everywhere at once without burning you out.
Instead of trying to schedule a dozen client consultation appointments, you can set up an online calendar system to coordinate them for you.
Instead of searching for leads, you can set up email marketing drip campaigns that nurture potential consumers until they decide to hire you.
Most successful companies, not just credit repair companies, automate as many tasks as they can to free up their time to focus on more important parts of their businesses. And today, I will teach you how to do the same!
THE THING TO REMEMBER
You don't have to be technical, and you don't need any coding skills to set up your automations. The whole point is to use them to simplify your workflow. Some are more complicated than others, but most are ready to go with just a few clicks.
The first step in setting up an automation system is choosing your Credit Repair Software. I'm biased, but Credit Repair Cloud is the number one Credit Repair Software in America. It provides an all-in-one business platform with disputing and recurring billing solutions.
It also includes our Automations Hub, where you can access and integrate over 5000 software tools that make scaling your business as fast as possible. If you don't already have an account, sign up for a Free Trial.
After you set up your Credit Repair Software, it's time to start connecting automations to it! The best way to do that is to sign up for Zapier.
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
Zapier is a workflow management tool that lets you easily connect different online applications and move information between them.
The system is designed so that when something happens in one of your online applications, it triggers response actions in another.
If you're unfamiliar with Zapier, it works using what they call "Zaps." Each Zap is made up of a trigger and one or more response actions.
For example, if a client visits your site and books an appointment on your online calendar, a Zap gets triggered. A personalized confirmation email is automatically sent from your email marketing software, and the appointment and that person's information is added to your Credit Repair Cloud or your CRM.
Everything works together, and it all got done without you lifting a finger!
Now, setting up automations might seem overwhelming, but it's easier than you think. Opening a Zapier account is as simple as opening an email account. Just visit Zapier, click 'Get Started Free,' and fill in your info.
Once your account is set up, you can use CRCs Automation Hub to add our pre-made Credit Repair "Zaps," or you can create new ones yourself. The system is user-friendly. You just choose the apps you want to connect, select their trigger, and set the action you want to follow.
You might ask yourself, "What exactly can I use to automate my Credit Repair Business?" Well…
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
LeadConnector is a popular tool to help you generate and manage leads and streamline your sales processes. When a new lead signs up for your email list or submits a form on your website, you can use LeadConnector to create their profile in your Credit Repair Cloud or your CRM and have your email marketing platform automatically send them a welcome email.
Hours of work done in the blink of an eye!
After you capture those leads, you need to connect with them.
Calendly is a scheduling tool that allows you to share your availability and book appointments online. When a lead books a consultation from your site in Calendly, you can use Zapier to connect Calendly with your email marketing platform and automatically send them additional emails about your services, forms to fill out, or onboarding tips to help them prepare for your meeting.
This saves a ton of time scheduling and during the meetings themselves.
After you connect with your leads, you then need to nurture them.
ActiveCampaign is a sales and marketing tool that handles everything from lead scoring to invoicing. When a new lead is created, you can use ActiveCampaign to automatically score them based on their interest in credit repair and their credit score. This allows you to organize them based on interest, prioritize them and focus your energy on the best prospects.
When a lead is scored, you can use Zapier to send them personalized marketing emails and follow-ups automatically. This is also called an email drip sequence. When they become paying customers, ActiveCampaign can also be used to create invoices, send payment reminders, and customer satisfaction surveys. This can help keep them happy, informed, and engaged throughout their credit repair process.
These tools, and thousands more, can integrate seamlessly with Credit Repair Cloud and Zapier. When it comes to the actual credit repair process, CloudMail is an amazing feature built right into our Letter Wizard that will automatically print, mail, and track dispute letters in real time! So you don't have to worry about printer ink, stamps or envelopes, or trips to the post office, because it's all done for you with a click of a button.
There are so many automation tools and so many ways to combine and coordinate them. You're only limit is your imagination.
