Are you tired of juggling emails, proposals, payments, and schedules for your photography business? Look no further! Honeybook, our go-to CRM platform, is transforming the way we manage clients and streamline workflows. In our YouTube video titled “Honeybook Project Pipeline: How To Customize Your Stages,” I’ll take you on a journey into the world of Honeybook’s game-changing pipeline feature.

Unveiling the Honeybook Pipeline Magic

Picture this: a seamless process where client management becomes a breeze, leaving you with more time to focus on what truly matters – capturing those picture-perfect moments. Honeybook is our secret weapon, delivering an array of tools like automations, templates, and, of course, the spotlight feature – the project pipeline.

The Game-Changing Pipeline Breakdown

The pipeline is the place where the magic happens, the stages are set, and clients embark on a red carpet journey. From the top view, you’ll witness the stages, each tailored to guide clients through their unique experience.

But that’s not all – click on a stage and enter a world of personalized client management. Imagine effortlessly tracking client progress, knowing who’s where, and even moving them around stages with a click. And yes, automation is our trusty sidekick, like when a retainer is paid, swiftly transitioning clients from ‘contract sent’ to ‘retainer paid.’

Personalize Your Pipeline: Crafting the Ultimate Experience

Now, the truly exciting part – customizing your pipeline. Here are our stages and how we work our pipeline magic:

1. Inquiry Stage: Active inquiries start here, ensuring a consult is scheduled. Unfit or out-of-budget inquiries? They’re elegantly tracked outside Honeybook until the perfect fit is found.
2. Proposal Progression: Move seamlessly from ‘proposal sent’ to ‘proposal signed’ to ‘retainer paid.’ These stages are the heart of converting clients into excited partners.
3. Engagement Session Delight: Enter the ‘E-Session Scheduled’ stage after engagement sessions are scheduled. A month prior, clients receive vital info for the session.
4. E-Session Delivered: Celebrate a successful engagement session by placing clients in the ‘E-Session Delivered’ stage.
5. Crafting the Perfect Timeline: Enter the ‘Check In Stage,’ where clients receive an automated, six-month-out check-in email. And don’t miss the spotlight on ‘The Timeline Wizard’ – a product that’s revolutionizing wedding timelines.
6. Gathering Wedding Details: After the ‘Check In Stage,’ dive into the ‘Planning’ stage, awaiting the big day while gathering essential details via a well-crafted questionnaire.
7. Completion and Archival: The final destination, ‘Completed,’ or, in Cameron and Tia’s case, ‘Archived,’ gives closure to projects.

The Extra Spark: “To Happen Sometime”

Just like every tale, there are exceptions. ‘To Happen Sometime’ is a unique stage where bundles or one-off sessions dwell. These projects don’t follow the traditional pipeline path, offering tailored attention.
