A Guide to Utilizing Newly Installed 17hats Marketplace Items

In today’s fast-paced environment, streamlining your business processes has never been more important. 17hats is a small business solution designed to help entrepreneurs manage their small businesses better AND more efficiently. 

17hats now offers a Marketplace filled with valuable tools and resources created by fellow 17hats members. (If you’re just now hearing about the Marketplace, see this helpful blog post here).

Whether you’re a photographer, web designer, or any other service-based small business owner, Marketplace items can enhance your workflow and productivity. In this blog post, we’ll explore how to make the most of your newly installed 17hats Marketplace items.

Explore the Marketplace

Before diving into the specifics of using your newly installed items, take some time to explore the 17hats Marketplace. It offers a diverse range of tools and resources, from customizable templates to Online Scheduling and Lead Capture Forms. Browse through the categories and see what catches your eye. Whether you need contracts, workflows, or email templates, chances are you’ll find something that fits your needs.

Choose Wisely

Once you’ve found items that align with your business needs, carefully consider which ones will have the most significant impact on your processes. Prioritize Marketplace items that address pain points or tasks that take up a significant amount of your time. 

For example, if you find yourself spending hours creating Online Scheduling Services from scratch, consider downloading an Online Scheduling Service item from the Marketplace to streamline the process (check out our free item for Online Scheduling Service for Phone Consultation here).

There may even be features that seem overwhelming to set up – go ahead and install a Marketplace item for that!

Download and Install

After selecting the items you want to use, it’s time to install them into your 17hats brand . The process is straightforward and can typically be completed with just a few clicks. Once installed, your new items will be accessible from within your 17hats brand, making them easy to integrate into your existing process. 

Downloaded templates can be found within “My Templates” while other functions such as Online Scheduling, Lead Capture Forms, and Workflows can be found within the specific feature’s settings.

Customize to Fit Your Brand

While the items in the 17hats Marketplace come ready-made, don’t be afraid to customize them to align with your brand’s aesthetic and voice. Add your header image and personalize any messaging to ensure consistency across all client communications. Customizing your items not only enhances your professional image but also helps reinforce brand recognition.

Helpful Hint: Look for areas within downloaded items that contain [brackets]. This is an indication from the seller that customization is needed on that item.

Integrate Into Your Workflow

Now that your newly installed items are customized and ready to go, it’s time to integrate them into your process. Whether you’re sending out contracts, collecting client information through questionnaires, or following up with leads via email, leverage your new tools to streamline your experience. 

Monitor the Impact

As you begin using your new Marketplace items, pay attention to how they impact your process and productivity. Monitor metrics such as time saved, client satisfaction, and revenue generated to gauge their effectiveness. Don’t be afraid to make adjustments as needed to optimize your processes further.

The 17hats Marketplace offers a variety of resources designed to help small business owners streamline their workflows and boost productivity. By carefully selecting and customizing items that align with your business needs, you can save time, enhance client interactions, and focus on what you do best.
