Qualifying leads doesn't need to be expensive or complicated. You just need a good, simple, functioning automation that relates to your customers, while giving you all the information you need and here's how...

Ask strategic questions on your website.

Tools:

+ Website (WordPress, yes, I still use and highly promote WordPress websites)
+ Form (Either through your website builder or Active Campaign)
+ Email marketing (Active Campaign)

The form is the key element here, ask too many questions and people put it in the "too hard" basket. Ask the right, quick questions, and you capture peoples needs and if they're a right fit.

What I reccomend you include on your forms...

Name, email, their budget, what their problems are/what they need help with (radio buttons/fixed choices inlign with your services), anything else they want to share, how did they hear about you.

Depending on what they pick in the budget and radio buttons will depend what email they get sent and with what information. Make the information fun and relatable.

BONUS: You can up it a level and create a fun quiz to get this info and to help educate.

But for the quickest/easiest/most cost effective way GO > Simple form with a simple automation.

This will get you started πŸ™πŸΌ.

You've made it to the end of the year. Even if things didn't go to plan. You still showed up, you still took steps in your business, whether big or small. I am proud of you πŸ™πŸΌ.

End the year slow. Don't be pressured to do it perfect or to burn yourself out. Just be you.

New Lead Magnet Experiment for my own business - P1...

New strategy, two softwares. Can I make this work?

22/10/2025

Let's take a look πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ

1. Inquiry forms > CRM

2. New client welcome email

3. Payment confirmations (auto payments are my fave)

4. Social post scheduling (not always optimal, but if scheduling helps you to be consistent AND show up on socials then use a scheduling tool)

5. Appointment reminders (BIG ONE for service based businesses)

6. Automated follow up emails for information from your clients. (Underratted but a must)

REMEMBER: The best automation is the one that actually gets set up and used πŸ™πŸΌ. So pick on from the above that drives you mad the most and start there.

Need help setting these up for your business? I'd love to help. Comment below with "Automate me" and I'll forward my Price Guide. Or hit the link in the bio and head to my website.

It's not what you think it is...

Most people would think that most popular automation I set up for businesses are lead magnets or automated payments, but it's actually not the case.

The most popular automation I set up for my clients is an online booking system so clients can book in their own appointments.

Such a simple, yet hugely powerful automation.

The great thing about this is you can set up tags and triggers depending on different elements about their booking to help with super targetted email marketing and just to learn about your customers too.

So apart from saving you a stack of time back and forth booking clients in via email or phone, it's also great to educate yourself about your clients.

Need help setting this up or atrategising? Feel free to book in for a consultation today and we can make a plan that's custom to you and your unique business needs.

From years of being in the Automation space, here are some simple automations that can save you hours each week in your business so you can feel like you're running your business, instead of your business running you..

Let's set you up to get your time, energy & sanity back:

🌴 Lead Magnet Delivery - Set up an instant email that sends your freebie and adds your new lead into a nurture sequence β€” no manual inboxing required.

🌴 Discovery Call Bookings - Use a calendar booking tool that auto-confirms appointments, sends reminders, and adds to your CRM.

🌴 Client Onboarding- Trigger a welcome email, contract, invoice, and intake form the moment someone says "yes!" (total game-changer).

🌴 Content Repurposing- Turn your podcast or blog into weekly social posts, quotes & newsletters using an AI-powered workflow.

🌴 Cart Abandonment Emails- Gently nudge people who didn’t complete their checkout β€” automation can do it for you, so you don’t have to chase.

🌴 Task Reminders & SOP Checklists- Automate task assignments with SOPs baked in so your VA (or future team) always knows what to do.

🌴 Post-Client Follow Up - Set a thank-you message, feedback request or testimonial email to go out automagically once the project wraps.

Remember: you don’t need to automate everything, just the things that steal your time or energy on repeat.

Want help mapping it all out? That’s my jam. Book a discovery call and let’s simplify, systemise, and scale with soul.

The answer...

Most, and they don't need to be complicated.

Simple automations can be added to any business, the main problem I've found when listening to my clients is, they just don't know where to start.

They feel overwhelmed and that the tech is too complicated.

I'm here to tell you, even the most powerful automations are the simple ones.

🌴 Having a quoting system on your website.

🌴 Setting up automatic payments so you're not chasing debt and unpaid invoices.

🌴 Getting people to book themselves in for your services and having the system take payment.

There are lots of automations linked with ai that people share that can feel very overwhelming, but it doesn't haven't to be.

I'm passionate about seeing you and your business thrive through simple, soulful automations. One of our key values is to make things simple.

Want me to take a look "under the hood" of your business to see what could be automated or better systems applied?

The biggest mistake I see people making in Active Campaign is the use of tags. People usually come over from MailChimp, which, in my opinion, is a disaster. It's clunky and not logical.

In Active Campaign, we actually benefit from using fewer lists and organising our contacts with tags. Tags are so powerful and can be used to customise wording in emails, to help you push contacts into the right automation. They're great for filtering as well.

Do not underestimate the use of TAGs, and if you want help understanding AC better. I offer AC audits and one-hour done with you consults where I can recommend suggestions or show you how to get the best value out of your account.

This picture looks divine, but honestly, I think I would get bored here. I don't know about you, but I can only stand so much relaxing and chill time before I am ready to go again. Whether it be going for a hike or itching to do something on the biz.

What's great about automations & well-oiled systems is, in most cases, they can free up your time to have this choice or a bit more freedom at least in the everyday grind.

Do we want to replace all human aspects of our business? No. Do we want to ensure everything is organised, our team knows whose doing what, and that new enquiries are being nurtured without needing you to be there? Yes.

If you'd like help bringing everything together in your business, from customer enquiries to project management, we'd love to help.

CTA - "Call to action", telling your client or customer what they need to do next at every touch point in your business. These are crucial when it comes to setting up automations. Take a read.
