Maybe you’re just starting your credit repair business, and like so many, you’re doing a ton of stuff that keeps you from scaling at the pace you’d like.
That’s because you’re just one person and you can’t do it all!
I was the same way when I started. I had to do everything myself because I really didn’t have a team. And for a time, you have to do that because you can’t afford help, but it’s not sustainable long term.
That’s why automations are so important for scaling your business. It gives you a team without having to pay a team!
What You Need to Use Automations in Your Credit Repair Business:
You may already know, credit repair itself is actually very simple. It really boils down to going through our proven dispute process and using our Letter Finder Feature inside Credit Repair Cloud to get great results for your clients.
All of the administrative work before, during, and after your clients get results is what eats up most of your time and what you need to free up.
Let’s walk through the basics of automations so you can keep up with demand and scale fast.
- Set Up an Online Calendar - Instead of manually messaging or talking with your clients to schedule consultations or follow up appointments, set up an online calendar system with Calendly.
I recommend taking advantage of their free version. Combined with Zapier, it can automatically add consultation appointments as leads in your Credit Repair Cloud with all of their contact information.
- Build an Automated Email Marketing Campaign - What happens when the leads that you had consultations with don’t end up turning into clients? You can set up an automation where, if someone becomes a lead in Credit Repair Cloud, they get added to an automated email marketing campaign.
An email marketing software like Active Campaign allows you to keep nurturing those leads who weren’t ready to sign up with you on your initial consultation.
They can be reminded about your services and be provided with credit tips every week with simple automation. Your prospects continue to hear from you without you having to follow up manually, and they get valuable information.
- Stay Connected With Your Clients With a Follow-Up Sequence - If you want to automatically onboard and keep in touch with clients after they have signed up as a paying customer, you could set up a Zap with Zapier. Here, your new clients in Credit Repair Cloud are added to a customer follow-up sequence in the same marketing automation software like ActiveCampaign.
This process allows you to provide new customers with regular tips on getting the most out of your services and remind them of the value you provide, so they don’t cancel early.
When you do this, your new clients feel supported with regular attention, without you spending extra one-on-one time with each of them. This means it doesn’t matter if you sign up one client today or 1000 - they’re all getting the same amount of time with you because you’ve automated a sequence ahead of time to ensure they have an amazing onboarding experience!
The Benefits of Automating Your Credit Repair Business
The above are just a few examples of the many ways you can automate your processes. As your business grows, the possibilities of how you can use automations are endless. It just takes your imagination and exploring what types of actions in Credit Repair Cloud, and your favorite apps can be automated with Zapier.
People like Seth Mitchell, the automation king, set up his credit repair business through clever systemization. Some of the benefits of automation are:
- Efficient and smooth workflow
- Optimized operations
- Enhanced customer service
- Clients feel supported
- More time to spend with your family
Seth says:
“Don’t think that just because today you’ve only got two or three clients you’re working with, that 30, 60, or 90 days from now, that won’t turn to 4-5 hundred - because it will.”
