So be sure to click subscribe now and get ready to start changing lives. Okay, let's get into this. What are automations? Well, automations are just a fancy term for a process or a 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, they are game changers. They are 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 they allow you to focus on big picture goals like generating leads, sales, and growing your company. There are literally thousands and thousands of automated software tools available, and when you set these up, it's kind of 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. So how does this relate to us? Well, credit repair is a very repetitive business. Most companies use the same factual dispute methods and the same customer onboarding processes. And it's a job that requires organization, accuracy and perfect timing, all things that automations are designed to improve. Now, most small business owners, they start out trying to do everything themselves. I know I did. But we're human and we can't work all the time. We need to eat, we need to sleep, and sometimes we get sick. But automations never do. Automations allow you to be everywhere at once without burning you out. So instead of trying to schedule a dozen client consultation appointments, you can just set up an online calendar system that will coordinate them for you. Instead of searching for leads, you can set up email marketing drip campaigns that nurture potential customers until they're ready to hire you. Most successful companies, and not just credit repair companies, but most companies automate as many tasks as they can to free up their time to focus on more important parts of their business. And today I'm going to teach you how to do the same. Here's 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. Now, some are more complicated than others, but most are ready to go with just a couple clicks. Now, the first step in setting up an automation system is choosing your credit repair software. Now 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 5,000 software tools that make scaling your business as fast as possible. If you don't already have an account, you can sign up for a free trial@creditrepaircloud.com now, after you set up your credit repair software, it's time to start connecting automations to it. And the best way to do that is to sign up for Zapier. Here's why this is important. Zapier is a workflow management tool that lets you easily connect different online applications and then move information between them. The system is designed so that when something happens in one of your online applications, it triggers a response action in another. Now if you're not familiar 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 with you on your online calendar, then a zap gets triggered and then a personalized confirmation email is automatically sent from your email marketing software and the appointment and that person's information gets added automatically to your credit repair cloud or your CRM. Everything works together and it all gets done without you lifting a finger. Now setting up Automations, it may seem overwhelming, but it's much easier than you think. Opening a Zapier account is as simple as opening an email account. Just visit zapier.com, click Get Started Free and fill in your info. Now once your account is set up, you can use CRC's Automations Hub to add our pre made credit repair zaps. Or you can create your own new ones yourself. The system is very user friendly. You just choose which apps you want to connect, you select their trigger and set the action that you want it to follow. Now you might be asking yourself, what exactly can I use to automate my credit repair business? Well, good question. Here's what you need to know Lead Connector is a very popular tool that can help you to 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 Lead Connector to create their profile in your credit repair cloud or your CRM and have your email marketing platform automatically send them a welcome email. And just like that, hours of work done in the blink of an eye. Amazing. Right now 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 as well as forms to fill out or onboarding tips to help them to prepare for your meeting. This saves a ton of time scheduling as well as during the meetings themselves. After you connect with your leads, you then you need to nurture them. ActiveCampaign is a sales and marketing tool that handles everything from lead scoring to invoicing. And 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. Now this allows you to organize them based on interest and prioritize them and and enables you to focus your energy on the best prospects. Now 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. Now when they become paying customers, ActiveCampaign can also be used to create invoices, send payment reminders and customer satisfaction surveys and this can help keep them happy, informed and engaged throughout their credit repair process. These tools and literally thousands more can integrate seamlessly with Credit repair, Cloud and Zapier. When it comes to the actual credit repair process. Cloud mail is an amazing feature built right into our Letter wizard and it will automatically print mail and track dispute letters for you in real time so you don't have to worry about printer ink, stamps, all envelopes or trips to the post office because it's all done for you with a click of a button. There are so many automated tools and so many ways to combine them and coordinate them. Your only limit is your imagination. To learn more ways to fully automate your business, sign up for our masterclass at creditrepaircloud.com freetraining. The masterclass includes six months of CRC software and automations and marketing courses plus you'll get a pre written email sequence and a whole lot more. Here's my final point. Automations aren't just about working faster. No, they're about working better and living better. The secret to serious growth is time and freedom and working on your business and not just in your business so that you can be the captain of the ship and not down below. Rowing Automations make that possible. And just a reminder, this podcast is.

She was asked to help a man remove a bankruptcy. At first she was nervous, but she reviewed her course notes and videos and got to work. And guess what? She confirmed that the bankruptcy has been deleted. She's now getting client referrals and she ended the post by saying don't give up. Thank you Denise. You are amazing.
