Writing each email from scratch, crafting customized offers for every client, and continuously checking your phone to see if they book + send payment is so last year.

So what can Dubsado really do for you?
Does this seem too good to be true? Or maybe it sounds perfect and you have no earthly idea where to get started.

"What you offer is more that just Dubsado setup. It's like a business workflow refresh in general.
With your attention to detail, thoughtful solutions to problems, and deep-dive approach, you thought of things I didn't know I needed.
Colie, you're the best!"
Turning my computer off each day at 3pm when I pick my kid up from school, no more responding to clients into the wee hours of the morning
Surprising her with a trip to Disneyland, without worrying about my business while I ride Dumbo.
Answering leads with a few clicks and the help of my canned emails/pre-written proposals saves so much time and stress.
Booking a new client in less than 5 minutes after our phone consultation. Best dopamine hit is the sound of my phone alerting me to a Square payment.
I am a confessed recovering workaholic. With Dubsado I said goodbye to the stress and hello to ...
Just because this is how your business has been going, doesn't mean this is how it has to be going forward

I'm in love with talking business strategy and helping other family photographers build better systems.
I started Colie James Photography in 2012, offering in-home family + newborn photography sessions. Within one year I offered my first online lifestyle family photography workshop.
That isn't as crazy as it sounds, when you consider I was a professor for over a decade before I gave birth to my daughter. Now I have mentored hundreds of photographers wanting to learn how to build their own lifestyle + documentary family photography businesses.
My mom is just happy I am still putting my degrees and college education to good use ;)
Hey, I'm Colie. I believe everyone deserves to run the business of their dreams and I think Dubsado is the answer.

Seven years ago I pulled the trigger on my first CRM and it was a game-changer. Two years later I discovered and went all-in with Dubsado. Now I help other creatives implement Dubsado in their own businesses.

Colie knows Dubsado like no other family photographer. She shares her knowledge in a clear, concise and very understandable way. Through her teaching I have added so much organization and simplified my processes immensely. If you need a CRM in your business (and you do), take Colie’s course so that your future self will thank you."
"Colie is THE reason that I chose Dubsado for my own photography business and I am so happy I did.

The Process

Before purchasing Dubsado I was having pretty extensive discussions via messenger with clients. Now that I have an established workflow in Dubsado I feel like my client communication is SO much more consistent and efficient. It also gets my sessions booked, complete with a signed contract and retainer fee paid in record time."
Before purchasing Dubsado I was having pretty extensive discussions via messenger with clients and answering A LOT of questions in order to get the necessary information to send the contract. This was a time consuming process and it felt like it was a pain, not just for me but for my clients too. Now that I have an established workflow in Dubsado I feel like my client communication is SO much more consistent and efficient. It also gets my sessions booked, complete with a signed contract and retainer fee paid in record time."
"Ultimately, what helped me to get up and running with my Dubsado was a step-by-step set of instructions & a guided tutorial from Colie showing me the process of one complete proposal/workflow.
