Running and managing a creative business can easily be overwhelming. Juggling admin work, becoming a client manager, marketing team, etc. And that’s all before we get to do what we started a business for in the first place.
Honeybook is my business bestie that is like having a personal assistant. It provides me the tools I need to successfully run my business. From sending proposals, contracts, and invoices, to managing project details, this online project management tool is a must-have! But just like anything else, incorporating a new software or tool takes time and effort to integrate into your client process.
This is where The Honeybook Blueprint comes in — a service designed to streamline your workflow and optimize your Honeybook account. Whether you’re a photographer, wedding planner, or in the wellness space, this new service offering helps automate your Honeybook account with customized workflows, smart file templates, and strategy to back it all up. This will free up valuable time for your creative work by helping you manage clients and projects without lifting a finger. So, let’s dive in!
What is the Honeybook Blueprint and why is Honeybook optimization important
The Honeybook Blueprint is a comprehensive service dedicated to getting your Honeybook account up and running for you and your business. It begins with a strategy session where we take the time to look deeply into your business and process to set a plan for your account. From there, I set up your brand hub with your own visual brand identity from colors to fonts, logos, and imagery. Once that foundation has been set, I move onto designing professional and beautiful custom smart file templates to impress your clients on their journey working with you. I also set up any contact or lead forms for you to gather client information and schedule meetings.
But it doesn’t stop there. Next, I set up the workflow automation that makes the most sense for you, your business, and client experience. We will streamline tasks, draft email replies, and create steps that can automatically trigger during your client journey. This gives you more time to dedicate to doing what you truly love!

By implementing customized smart file templates and automating workflows, The Honeybook Blueprint transforms how you run your business, making everyday operations smoother, quicker, and more professional.
How the Honeybook Optimization Works
Here’s a step-by-step look into what the Honeybook Blueprint process looks like:
- STRATEGY SESSION — We begin with a deep dive into your business and client process. We’ll hop on a call where you can brain dump your client experience. Looking at it from the client’s perspective allows us to cater directly to them. Let’s look at what currently is not working and what is smoothly functioning. From there, we can simplify the steps clients take during their journey. Whether you need better client management, automation, or more dynamic smart files, this sets the foundation for your Honeybook account.
- BRAND SETUP — I begin implementing the strategy by setting up your brand elements in your Honeybook account. Within your company settings, there is a space to add your colors, fonts, logo files, and imagery. Additionally, I will set your company smart file theme settings. This is an important step in the process to establish brand consistency across your entire Honeybook account.
- CUSTOM SMART FILE TEMPLATES — No need to manually create documents for each client. I will design smart file templates that maintain your unique brand identity and align with your client experience. These custom templates will save you time and ensure your client-facing documents are polished, professional, and work for you!
- CONTACT OR LEAD FORM CREATION — Your lead generation process should be as smooth as the work you provide your clients. I will create and embed a contact form on your website or design a lead form to send to potential clients. A contact form serves as a way for your clients to inquire with you about your services. A lead form is a new Honeybook feature that allows you to review, book, schedule, or pay for your services. This is a great way to automate your business by putting the power in the hands of your clients by allowing them to select services based on their unique needs, make payments, or schedule meetings with you.
- AUTOMATION SETUP — Lastly, I will implement the workflow automation we establish in the strategy portion of this process. This ensures your business runs like clockwork without you having to do everything. From automated follow-ups to client reminders, invoices, proposals, and more, I will set up systems that keep you organized and on top of every project without needing to micromanage.
By the end of the process, your Honeybook account will be fully optimized, allowing you to operate more efficiently and provide an elevate experience for your clients.
In Conclusion
Your business deserves a streamlined, professional workflow that serves you and your clients. With Honeybook Optimization, I will help automate mundane time-consuming tasks, and improve your client experience to free up more time for what you love to do.
