    I would say to be very careful if you sign up for Houzz Pro/Ivy. I was signed up for one year and found it quite bothersome to place orders. The discounts are not great and I did not get enough qualified leads to make the monthly charge worth it. Several years ago I did get good leads from Houzz. I thought perhaps the platform had improved. Yet, the leads are just people signing up to make an account on houzz. Not qualified at all. It’s expensive and most of my designer friends have opted out. One way to use it is to save product in idea books; yet not pay for the PRO advertising. Just a suggestion.

    Hi Sara and friends,
    I’m checking in since you asked and am enjoying this course so much!. I am very distracted in the summer with family home, and the sunshine.
    Yet, I am plugging away at updating my questionnaire on my website, and making my initial consultation payable online also. I am also working on designing packages. I am curious Sara if you are using MyDoma for organizing your projects with clients, or just for selling packages. I know the platform has some limitations, like you mentioned but I know that it works well for the packages. I would love to hear how you use it as I have been contemplating purchasing it for quite awhile.
    I can see how setting up all these processes, then creating the marketing funnel, will help generate more qualified leads, better clients, and a more full pipeline and greater profits. That is what I really am hoping for!
    see you tomorrow,
    Sharon

    HI April and Friends,
    I have a WIX website and have had my discovery call and calendly link set up for about 9 months. It works great and I love that I have it automated. Excited to tweak it now and add the link to “purchase” the consult or package; ( hoping this is one of our next steps to learn )
    You mentioned different questionnaire forms? I am assuming that Sara just has one questionnaire form that all potential clients fill out. Hoping Sara can give feedback on this.
    I realized that I have about 10 questions only on my intake form so am going to need to tweak that.
