Opting For Automation - 5 Processes Businesses Should Automate In 2022

  • Written by NewsServices.com

Automation is one of the greatest innovations of our time, allowing you to achieve more without actually doing more. You can improve your customer service, schedule work efficiently, keep track of work flawlessly, and even use an invoice template free to get paid without being at your desk. Here are five processes business owners should automate in 2022:

Invoicing

Not everyone knows that they can take advantage of automated accounts payable solutions. Designed to be faster and smoother than traditional accounting software, AP automation platforms are also easy to use, making them a simple way to keep track of your funds. Automation enables you to do the work that earns the money rather than wasting hours on admin. You can also get a quick and complete overview of your finances with one simple click.

Workflow Management

We all know about platforms like Asana and Trello, but are you using them correctly? Automation works best when the entire experience is hands-off. When not managed correctly, you might start feeling as though you need to hire another team member just to handle the scheduling and progress updates on these workflow platforms. They’re automated, but you need to ensure you have accountability from each team member to ensure that notifications reach the right people at the right times.

Client Updates

Service is the number one reason why clients will stay with a brand. Beyond a good product, if clients are regularly kept up to date on progress with their orders or their campaigns, they feel informed, in control, and empowered. However, the downside is that keeping clients informed is a large responsibility for employees. Sometimes, the demands are beyond what they are able to manage.

Platforms like HubSpot enable you to keep track of correspondence with clients and any updates or progress made on their campaigns. As soon as work is completed, HubSpot will automatically update the client on the changes while keeping track of everything. There are plenty of CRM platforms to choose from, so do your research, and pick one that will suit your team and your clients.

Management Of Conference Room Availability Schedule

Nothing is as frustrating as a double booking in a conference room. Few things are as annoying as trying to schedule time with a client but first needing to consult a piece of paper that may or may not show accurate availability. It’s time to automate this!

By having an electronic schedule, different people will be able to make bookings, get notifications for bookings (like meeting reminders), and even cancel bookings. Platforms like Calendly work well because they also remind participants that they need to attend the meeting.

Looking At The Efficacy Of Marketing Campaigns

Ever wondered how effective each of your different marketing techniques actually is? How many feet in the door did you get from that ad you placed in the newspaper? How many people made a purchase after you sent out a newsletter with your newest products?

Maralytics is similar to Facebook’s analytics tool in that you can see exactly how many people were interested in your advert, how many people made a purchase, and where your failure to convert occurred. It is the only tool in the world to completely automate the analytics from every different marketing outreach campaign you have.

Getting In The Groove

When you’re used to doing everything yourself, delegation can feel challenging. By automating some of your business processes, you will free up time for more revenue-generating work and less admin. Enjoy automation – it’s a gift!
