How to Create Your Brand in Canva

We love Canva for all things related to simple graphics and design for our business. We use it for multiple purposes (which we list out in this blog post), especially for our templates in The Creative Template Shop. Basically, it’s the one tool that any small business owner should have in their back pocket to quickly and easily whip up graphics for their biz.

Canva has a free forever version, which already allows you to do most things.

3 Ways to Nurture Clients Even After They’re Finished Working with You

If there’s one thing that can make or break a service-based business, it’s the experience you provide for your clients. Not only is the client experience crucial to making sure your clients are happy, leave great testimonials, refer you to others, and possibly come back for repeat business, but also perfecting your client experience allows you to sell the heck out of it in your marketing message.

Your client experience doesn’t just span from the first interaction to when you start working with them. It also includes your off boarding process and how you treat them once they’ve finished working with you. But how can you still nurture these relationships even after the project is all said and done? There are three simple yet powerful ways you can do so, and that’s what we’re going to cover in this post!

How to Create a Premium Client Experience

The client experience is one of the most– if not the most– important aspects of any business, whether service- or product-based. It’s one thing to perform your services or create your products well. Obviously we want to be exceptional in our craft and provide a great outcome for our audience.

But it’s a whole other piece of the puzzle to take into consideration how your clients feel working with you. What’s their experience like? What do they feel when they first learn about you through your social posts or website? How easy are you making things for them? How trusted do they feel that you’re taking care of them?

All of these points are crucial for repeat business, positive testimonials, referrals to more potential clients/customers, selling the experience, and eventually scaling your business. The cold hard facts are that people remember negative experiences with a business and use those to influence their next decision (a.k.a. running away) more than they do the positive ones.

We’ve learned a thing or two about client experience from our years of being service providers then transitioning to digital products, so we’re here to share our knowledge on how to create a premium client experience!

How to Confidently Relaunch Your Offer

We know how much goes into creating an offer, wrapping it up, and getting it ready to officially present to the world, so we’re proud of you for pulling through. Now that you’ve had it out there for a while and have been nurturing your audience, you’re probably coming up on the need to relaunch it.

If you’re like, “Hold the phone! ‘Relaunch?’” Yes! What, you thought you could just launch your product once and that’s it? Unfortunately, as heavenly as that sounds, that’s not a very effective way to keep making money. No need to worry, though, because we just so happen to have relaunched probably more times than we’ve ordered from Starbucks (and that’s saying a lot).

With that said, we want to show you how to confidently relaunch so you can keep improving your offer and converting prospects into buyers!
