Maya’s agency, followed from the first login to the first client’s monthly bill.
No theory. Every step below is the platform as it runs today.
Maya ran social media for a group of gyms. She could plan a campaign, write the posts and read the numbers. What she didn’t have was the rest of an agency: a website builder, an email platform, a video editor, a designer for print, and a way to bill clients every month.
She opened a SendTo account one evening: an email address and a password, no card. A sample workspace was already loaded, so she clicked through every part of it before she set anything up.
Her agency’s name went on first
She gave it her agency’s name, logo and colours, and put her portal on her own domain. From then on, everything her clients would see carried her brand: the login, the dashboard, the emails the platform sends for her, the reports and the bill.
Her agency’s website was built for her, with a mascot drawn in her colours. The brand kit made her social posts, her display ads and her print, as print-ready files sized for her country, so the print shop had nothing left to do but print them.
Then her first client: a café she already knew
She added the café and gave the platform its logo and its website. Its colours, fonts and voice were read from both, and everything made for the café was made in them.
Its new website went live in one click, menu and all. For its new breakfast, she had a landing page made, with a form for the launch-week offer, and an email campaign written and designed for the café’s list. Every address on the list was checked at the mailbox first, so the dead ones were never mailed.
Then a 15-second film for the café’s social pages: 9:16 for stories, 1:1 for the feed, captions on. The script came first, and she changed two scenes before the film was made.
She brought the client. The platform did the making, the sending and the billing.
Every person who acted was followed up
When someone filled in the breakfast page’s form, the enquiry arrived in the café’s inbox, filed under the campaign that brought it, and a sequence started for them: three emails over a week, sent one at a time. People who came from the café’s social posts started it too, from the same form.
At the end of the month, the café paid her
The café is billed through the platform, under Maya’s brand, at the price she set. Her margin is paid out to her every month. She pays one flat fee for the platform, the same with one client as with forty.
Then a gym. Then a dental practice, a boutique and a builder. Each one runs the same way, on the same fee.
Nine clients by the end of the season, every one of them under her name.
Free to open, no card. The sample workspace is ready the moment you confirm your email.
