Play #3: Sell a $500 automation setup to solo professionals
Solo dentists, lawyers, realtors and therapists lose clients to slow follow-up. Build them inbox and booking automation with Muse plus Zapier or Make: $500 setup, $99 a month care plan.
In this brief: 3 sections 2 min read
Three workflows cover most solo practices: every new inquiry gets an instant reply and a booking link; every appointment gets reminders that cut no-shows; every finished visit triggers a review request. Boring is the point. A practice does not want clever, it wants the phone answered and the calendar full. Sell reliability, not technology.
Interview the owner for 30 minutes, then have Muse turn the conversation into a workflow map and draft every message in the owners voice. Build it in Zapier (Starter is about $20 a month billed annually for 750 tasks) or Make (cheaper at volume). Test with your own email and phone before anything touches a real client. Hand over a one-page runbook.
Charge $500 for the build and $99 a month for monitoring, small fixes and one monthly improvement. The client pays their own Zapier or Make subscription directly: never bundle someone elses metered bill into your flat fee. First client at half price for a testimonial and a case study. One bad automation can cost a client a customer, so your reputation is the real product.
