How is that for streamlined!
Smart files in HoneyBook allow you to customize your client's experience with your biz with multi-page files that can make short order of several steps in your booking and or client service fulfillment.
Create a smart file to have your client select thier service level, sign your contract, provide project information and make payment.

Pretty much anything you can dream up you can put into a smart file!
HoneBook tracks your lead or client progress through the smartfile and alerts you to actions they've taken.
*get extra streamlined and combine your smart files with Automations in HoneyBook and have your forms autosend based on triggers you set up in the automation.
Automations allow you to setup up repeatable processes for each phase of your client journey (and for each service you offer if that process varies).
You can autostart an automation from a Lead or Contact form submittal or trigger them manually - whichever way works best for you biz flow!
You can also base some of your automation steps on actions taken by your client.

Because HoneyBook and Dubsado are so close in feature sets (and trials are free) you should definitely run both tools through some testing to see which tool fits your needs best and which to LIKE using.
Because… let’s face it, if you don’t like the look and feel of a tool – you likely won’t be jazzed about using it daily!
Dubsado’s features are very similar but there is more custom and smart field personalization for email templates and forms (example you can refer to child or pet name in an email sent to your client if you build that as a project custom field).
However if you are time poor and need your processes automate as much as possible give Dubsado’s workflow a good look. You can trigger the next workflow from the completed one to step your client through each phase of working with you. You may hardly need to lift a finger to hit “send” ever again!
