Listen "How to Onboard Clients Without a CRM"
Episode Synopsis
Do you really need a fancy all-in-one CRM to run your business like a pro? Plot twist: NOPE. In this episode, I’m breaking down how I’ve successfully onboarded hundreds of clients over the years—without ever stepping foot inside Dubsado, Honeybook, or any of those popular client management tools.This episode was inspired by a question from my Six-Figure Sprint client, Alyssa, who asked what CRM everyone uses. Spoiler: I don’t use one. And the real kicker? I don’t think you need to either (unless you want to!).Instead, I’m sharing my super streamlined, rinse-and-repeat onboarding process that doesn’t require any complicated software. It's simple, boring, profitable—and ADHD-friendly. If your current system is clunky, chaotic, or (let's be honest) non-existent, this one’s for you.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why I’ve never used a CRM (and still built a multiple six-figure business)What you actually need to onboard clients seamlessly (hint: it's not 12 tools)A step-by-step walkthrough of my onboarding workflowThe 3 essential tools I use (and how to set them up in less than an hour)Why the welcome email is the most important part of your client experienceHow to use Asana or Airtable to manage clients without the overwhelmThe psychology behind clear client communication—and how it prevents burnoutMentioned Resources:Download the free client welcome email template: https://courtneychaal.com/welcome-emailWatch the free masterclass: https://courtneychaal.com/masterclassJoin Yay for Clients: https://courtneychaal.com/shopApply for Six-Figure Sprint: https://courtneychaal.com/apply
