Have you ever missed a deadline, an inquiry from a client, or forgotten to send an important prep email?

Life happens, and sometimes critical steps in your business get overlooked. It happens to the best of us. But what if there was a way to remove the stress of remembering emails and important tasks? In this week’s blog, we’ll discuss how starting workflows can help eliminate missed opportunities and keep your clients happy.


What is a Workflow?

Are you wondering what a workflow is but hesitant to ask? A workflow is a series of tasks, steps, and emails that you create to keep your business organized and efficient. ShootQ allows you to automate these processes to ensure you don’t miss any important tasks.


Getting Started with Workflows

Starting workflows might sound overwhelming at first, but once you outline them, they will help streamline your business. Here’s how to get started:

  1. Outline Your Steps: Sit down and consider all the steps you take for your sessions. Make a detailed task list.
  2. Input Your List into ShootQ: Once your task list is ready, it's time to enter it into ShootQ.


Do you offer multiple session types? With ShootQ, you can create as many workflows as you need. Each workflow can have its own series of tasks and steps tailored for each session type.


Workflow Emails

Do you send the same emails repeatedly to your clients? Create email templates in ShootQ to automate this process. Email templates maintain a personalized feel without the hassle of writing each email individually.
