🌍 Overview
The client wanted a seamless integration between GHL CRM (for customer management and order forms) and IO Booking Software (for managing event bookings and rentals).
Before the integration:
- Orders and customer details had to be manually entered into both systems.
- Payment reminders, order status updates, and post-event communications were manual and error-prone.
- Businesses managing multiple subaccounts (party rentals, event planning) struggled to maintain consistency and timely communication.
I built a custom integration that automated the flow of data and enabled smart automations, resulting in:
✨ Key Business Benefits
- Automated Order Creation: Orders submitted via GHL forms automatically create a corresponding order in IO Booking Software.
- Real-Time Status Updates: When order status changes in IO (booked, delivered), the information syncs back to GHL CRM.
- Automated Payment Reminders: Based on order status, GHL sends custom reminders at 2–3 day intervals until payment is completed.
- Integrated Payment Tracking: Once paid, orders are marked as Paid in both systems.
- Customer Engagement Automation:
- Post-delivery review messages are sent automatically.
- Birthday or special occasion messages sent automatically.
- Custom Status Automations: Support for client-specific order statuses with custom triggers.
- Scalable for Multiple Accounts: Handles 1,000+ subaccounts, ensuring consistency across a large number of clients.
