Your website is that super-loyal employee you’ve always wanted.
And in today’s digital age, automating your business can streamline your processes and help you stay ahead of the competition.

Ready to learn?
1. Online Booking and Scheduling
Gone are the days of back-and-forth emailing.
Allowing your customers to schedule appointments online can save you time and money.
By integrating a booking and scheduling system into your website, customers can schedule appointments independently without the need for calls or emails.
My favourite app to use is Calandly.
Just punch in your free hours, embed the calendar on your site, and your visitors can book with ease, aligning their availability with yours. Decreasing your workload and improving customer satisfaction.
2. Automated Emails
Did you know, you don’t have to write every email out by hand?
Automated emails can save time and help you stay connected with customers.
By setting up automated emails for things like order confirmations, appointment reminders, follow-up surveys, and booking packs, you can provide a better customer experience and improve your overall efficiency.
Keeping your customers in the loop and feeling involved.
3. Chatbots For FAQs
Tell me, what are your most frequently asked questions?
Do you hand write out an answer to each person who enquires about the same thing?
If you don’t have one already, an FAQ page can be a huge time-saver, providing the answers to the majority of your most-asked questions
And by integrating a chatbot into your website, customers can get answers to their questions quickly and easily, without the need for human interaction.
Reducing the workload on your plate and providing a better customer experience.
4. Automated Payments
To get people to pay through your website for your products and services, you can implement an online payment system that integrates with your website.
A payment gateway is a service that processes online payments.
Depending on what you’re selling, platforms like WooCommerce, Thrivecart, or Stripe can help you. Just make sure to choose a payment gateway that’s compatible with your website and provides secure payment processing.
Each platform integrates differently but most will have documentation and support to help you get setup.
Typically involving installing a plugin or adding a code snippet.
5. Build Your Mailing List with a Lead Capture
Sure, this one needs time investment initially.
But once you have it up and running, it’s a super powerful tool to get potential customers to sign up for your mailing list.
- Step one: Create a valuable piece of content, such as an ebook or exclusive video, that’s relevant to your target audience.
- Step two: Offer this content as an incentive to subscribe to your mailing list.
- Step three: Place the lead capture form prominently on your website, such as in the sidebar or at the bottom of blog posts.
P.S. Don’t forget to use a clear CTA.
