Who is true Infusionsoft Automation Expert?

Thursday, September 26th, 2019

Infusionsoft automation is basically automation of different processes that we can’t perform manually when it comes to large number of database. These processes can be sale process, marketing process, e-commerce or sending a newsletter to subscribers on weekly or monthly basis. There are two aspects of automations

  1. Infusionsoft automation within Infusionsoft portal
  2. Technical side of Infusionsoft automation

A true Infusionsoft expert / consultant is the one who not only understands infusionsoft portal side of automation but also understands that how it will be integrated technically with a website or a third part tool to get 100% automation output out of Infusionsoft.

For example, we will discuss a marketing process as a case study where we are marketing a product on facebook and we want to automate this process through infusionsoft. And let’s say following are steps that we want to automate in this process

  1. We want to land a user on a landing page with product info
  2. We want to give them an option to sign-up for promotions if he is not interested to by right now
  3. He can click on product and can go to checkout to complete purchase
  4. He purchased and went to thank you page
  5. Let’s assume Owner of this ecommerce site don’t want to use Infusionsoft Ecommerce module and want to use woocommerce extension for infusionsoft

Now in this scenario, an infusionsoft consultant must understand both sides, how to automate this process within infusionsoft and how to automate sign-up and ecommerce part of the process.

In this case, infusionsoft consultant will use infusionsoft CRM module to create following campaigns within Infusionsoft campaigns

  1. A confirmation email sent to those who signed up for news letters
  2. A nurture sequence campaign where he can add these subscribers to send latest or upcoming promotions so that whenever a new promotion is there, that can be sent to all subscribers automatically
  3. Up-Sell Campaign – if someone has purchased from you already, they are more likely to have more purchases from you and therefore in Infusionsoft CRM you can create Up-Sell campaign and can add these customers to this campaign to send them upsells
  4. Infusionsoft Cart abundant campaign, if someone has clicked a product purchased url in your email campaign and he is on checkout page but have not purchased anything for let’s say 1 hour, you can send him a cart abundant campaign asking him if he is facing any difficulty in complete purchase process

And on the technical side of this example infusionsoft expert needs to know

  1. How to create and integrate sign-up form on the website and how to theme it so it looks same as website from design point of view
  2. He should be expert to integrate infusionsoft with wocommerce, so that whenever there is an order, woocommerce can send this customer record to infusionsoft CRM along with a tag applied so that we can manage to add these customers in up-sell campaigns within infusionsoft automatically

During the last 10 years being infusionsoft expert in the digital industry we have seen 100’s of clients who are always confused while using infusionsoft crm, and the reason being is they rarely find consultant who understand both sides of infusionsoft. If an infusionsoft consultant only understands how to work within infusionsoft and does not understand how it will interact outside third party tools like clickfunnels, leadpages or woocommerce, he can’t design and implement complete process automation through infusionsoft. And same goes for who inderstand infusionsoft integrations for third party tools but don’t understands tagging structures, campaign automations they can’t help clients completely.

A true infusionsoft expert will see whole picture of proess automation and will implement that which will help businesses to achieve their goals without worrying about infusionsoft system implementation correctly.

Migration from Zoho CRM to Infusionsoft By Keap

Thursday, September 26th, 2019

In this article, we will discuss general steps require to migrate from Zoho CRM to Infusionsoft by Keap CRM and if you want to get this migration done we will recommend you strongly to discuss with infusionsoft by keap consultant who have expertise in Zoho CRM as well, so that he can review your current campaigns, packages, tagging structure, roles, contact and lead forms in Zoho in detail and can advise you that how these functionalities will be mapped on your Infusionsoft by Keap (keap CRM).

Before we go in to more details, I will divide this general migration process in to three different stages

  1. Migration of Campaigns
  2. Migration of Tags
  3. Migration of Users/Customers
  4. Migration of Products

Migration of Campaigns from Zoho CRM to Infusionsoft by Keap CRM

In this step, you will need to export all your campaigns that you have in Zoho CRM as backup because once you will leave CRM you will not have option to take anybackup, and you will then need to create all these campaigns again in Infusionsoft by Keap CRM campaigns by following sequences and emails in Zoho CRM, this will be fast process as all the logic for campaigns is already functional and you just need to implement that in Infusionsoft by Keap campaigns. In this step, you will also create all lead/contact forms that you have on Zoho CRM in Infusionsoft campaigns, as in Infusionsoft a webform can be a triggering element to trigger automatic email campaigns. So here in Infusionsoft by keap you can create these forms right away in campaigns

Migration of Tags from Zoho CRM to Keap CRM

Migrating tags is most important element as it defines what is current status of a user and what next steps or campaigns he will follow in a CRM. In Zoho CRM you need to export all your tags in csv file and then you need to login to Infusionsoft by Keap and in Marketing Module you need to download sample excel file that keap provides to users as sample excel file so that you can arrange you tags accordingly and then can import in Infusionsoft by Keap. Now you need to copy all your tags from the csv file you downloaded from Zoho CRM in to sample file you exported from Infusionsoft by Keap, once this is done you can now import all your tags in infusionsoft crm. Make sure you are not changing tag ids so that when you upload user lists they can automatically get associated with correct tags.

Migration of Users/Customers from Zoho to Infusionsoft

Migration of users and customers is almost same as migration of tags, you need to export all users records from zoho crm in to csv file and again in infusionsoft crm you need to export sample file for importing user records in infusionsoft. Copy and paste your user records in exported csv from Zoho to infusionsoft sample file and upload it in infusionsoft crm, make sure you are adding tag id’s column from zoho file to infusionsoft sample file so that these records automatically get connected with their tags

Migration Packages from Zoho CRM to Keap CRM

Similarly, you can export your packages you have created in Zoho to Infusionsoft by keap. But additionally, you will have to setup their costs, subscriptions etc. in infusionsoft, and also you will have to setup your payment details in infusionsoft by keap ecommerce if you wish to use infusionsoft by keap ecommerce functionality.

Role of Tags in Infusionsoft by Keap CRM

Thursday, September 26th, 2019

What is a Tag in CRM? This is very important question for those who wants to use a CRM with thousands of users and customers records. There are different definitions of tag, but here I will define a tag from a CRM’s point of view, in CRMs a Tag and is a flag that we can set against each and a group of people/records in the CRM to identify their current status, source and to trigger a certain campaign or action.

By the definition above, you can see how important is it to create an accurate and correct tagging structure in CRM to control your user’s flow within CRM. In Infusionsoft by Keap CRM, we also need to carefully decide tagging structure and here are steps that we need to follow in order to create an effective tagging structure

Know your processes and their stages

you need to know exactly what process you want to implementing through Infusionsoft CRM, for example a sale automation process can have different stages where if a sale person can be assigned with a task to call prospect, and based on the call result he should be able to move this prospect in second stage, that can be interested, could not connect, reschedule, and this will be done by applying or removing a tag (Rescheduled Tag) to the record. when you will understand your processes completely you will be able to see what tags are required during those processes and at what stage you will need to add/remove tags. An Infusionsoft by Keap expert help businesses to automate these processes in their routine and they have shared several sample tagging structures on different Infusionsoft by keap communities that you can search and use as guidelines to implement yours

Create and Run your Tags

Once you know what tagging structure you need, you can login to your Infusionsoft CRM and you can create those tags, to make those tags more clear and reasonable, you can create different categories for tags and then can create those tags and can assign them relevant tag category.

There are different ways to apply a tag in Infusionsoft which depends on different things like

  1. A new signup through Infusionsoft form
  2. Adding a user to a nurture sequence
  3. Purchased is made
  4. Selling up-sell to customers

Above are some of the many reasons that we need to apply a tag to a user. When someone signup through an Infusionsoft web form there is an option in web form setting that allow us to add a tag to users who will fill out that web form, similarly we can create purchase action set for a specific product to add a tag to customer who will purchase that product through Infusionsoft ecommerce shopping cart indicating that this customer have already purchased this product. And hence we can sell any accessories related to this specific product to this product buyers, by creating an up-sell campaign and adding all customer with that product tag applied.

During these last 10 years of working as Infusionsoft experts, we at Kaya Systems work very closely on these tagging structure to make sure that business owner can have detailed insight of what’s going on in the system and they can make their decisions accordingly.
