In the last bulletin, we talked about identifying friction in your client experience. Friction can be found by looking where things feel clunky, you’re repeating yourself, or where your clients seem unsure, even when you thought you explained it.
But identifying the gaps? That’s only the beginning.
The next, arguably most important, part is building the support behind your client experience. Not perfectly. Not all at once. Just… intentionally.
THIS ISN'T ABOUT CANVA.
Before we get into what to build, let’s clear something up. Not everything needs to be designed. Some of the most effective pieces of your client experience might live in:
a Google Doc
an email draft
your CRM
or even a note on your phone
Canva helps you package and repeat things beautifully—but the real goal is to create something you don’t have to recreate every time.
Build Support
If you’re not sure where to start, look at these five areas. Each one points to something you can build and reuse.
1. Client Communication (Reduce Repetitive Messages)
If you’re answering the same questions over and over, your client communication isn’t broken, it’s just not documented. Instead of rewriting every response, build 👉
a welcome email
a prep email
a “what happens next” email
These can live in:
saved email drafts
canned responses
your CRM
Why this matters: Consistent communication builds trust and saves time.
2. Client Guidance (Help Clients Show Up Prepared)
If your clients feel unsure, confused, or lost during their time with you, they’re missing guidance, not effort. Build 👉
a prep guide
a checklist
a timeline
This can be:
a simple Google Doc
or a branded Canva view-only link
Why this matters: Clear guidance reduces confusion and manages expectations on both sides.
3. Client Structure (Organize Your Process)
If your information is scattered across emails, links, and messages then your process is fragmented (like a jigsaw puzzle). Create a central place for your clients by building 👉
a landing page
a client hub
a “start here” link or highlight
Why this matters: Structure makes your business feel professional and easy to navigate.
4. Automation (Stop Relying on Memory)
If you’ve ever thought, “I need to remember to follow up…” that’s your sign to automate. Build 👉
reminder emails
follow ups
scheduled check ins
Use tools like:
your CRM
calendar reminders
email scheduling
Why this matters: Automation creates consistency without adding more to your mental load.
5. Experience Touch Points (Make It Memorable)
Once your process is smooth, you can start adding fun cherries on top. Add simple, intentional touches like 👉
a handwritten note
a small gift
a thoughtful check in
These don’t need a platform. They just need to be planned.
Why this matters: Memorable experiences lead to referrals and repeat clients.
What Changes?
When you build support across these five areas, shifts happen. You stop relying on 👉
memory
mood
last minute decisions
And start relying on:
repeatable systems
clear communication
intentional client experience
Ready to Build?
If you’re reading this and thinking “I know exactly what I need… I just haven’t built it yet." Sorry, but that’s the next step. You'll need to put some action behind the inspiration you now have.
Inside the upcoming Content Lab, we’re not just talking about ideas—we’re building them.
Final Thoughts
Clarity helps you understand the problem. But building support? That’s what actually fixes it.
