CK Magic for me, I think the business side of things are boring but necessary! This seems like a great tool if someone's looking to grow their business. Also, I have to check out that podcast!
I have a couple of startup businesses on the go, related to each other and followed your advice followed your link and went for Tave, OMG, the possibilities, the customization, the support and the videos on the help section, the easiness to separate the businesses in order to have 2 different brands in the same platform, the time you save, etc just blew me out of the water, I will definitely continue on using it after the trial period, brilliant. thank you so much.
This is honestly the most helpful video I've watched. New to the business and its great to get started on a good foundation. Thanks for the info and for the 60 day trial!
Superior product for these businesses. Comprehensive tracking of work flow. Easy to follow. Great work Scott. I have tried #OpusTime for my scheduling purposes and manage my all appointment related task very smoothly. That's also a must try software.
@@scottmckenna very helpful! I am literally setting up Tave right now. Would you be open to sharing the lead generation checklist part of your workflow? That would be so helpful to understand your tried and tested approach/automations!
You'll love Tave, it's super powerful. They have tons of great videos to learn it on their web site. Also, I strongly encourage you to join the facebook group. People are super helpful there as well.
I took a look at TAVE and I love the design, it is very important to me. Also, the cost is reasonable. I know people use HoneyBook as well. I will give TAVE a try for sure. Also, you mentioned contracts and proposals, do you use any particular websites or templates to make them? Or did you make your own? Thank you for making these videos. You are further along this path I want to go and this helps me piece everything together.
Thanks for this! I looked around Tave and it really seems to be geared towards wedding photo/video. Also, do you use the site for uploading your video projects for clients? Seems like max file size is very small.
+michaeljoelmintz I do not use Tave for uploading films to couples. I do all that through Mediazilla. I use Tave for simply client management and everything associated with it. Payments, invoices, contracts, etc.
Scott: how would you compare this to something like 17 Hats? How long have you used Tave? What does it lack? Does it automate emails or workflows based on a wedding date or videography project?
That's a relief that you've heard of them and can compare them. That helps in my decision making processes. On a related note - you were at 4,000 subs when I first came across your channel. You've popped up 20% since then. You're the next Peter McKinnon! He was at 40,000 when I followed him this time last year. Now he's over 1.1 million. Moral of the story - keep replying quick to my comments and I'll take you far! (Just kidding - you're doing just fine without my help)
+The FVLOG hahah. I’ll do my best. Peter is outstanding. Thanks for being here. I appreciate and respect your time. I love Táve and I think you would do. Use my link and you get 60 day free trial. tave.com/join/4lcstudios
What other crms have you used? I’m a new business and want to start with a good system. Tave costs more so it keeps me looking at competitors. Since I’m new I’m not sure I will use all of Taves features. Can you give me advice?
I use it because it's the best one I've ever found and used, which is also why it's probably more money. I wouldn't promote it if wasn't good. Period :).
Hi Scott. I had a quick question with Tave. Thinking of signing up soon. Do you have 2 separate Tave accounts? 1 for Scaling Creative and 1 for 4LC Studios? I was wondering if Tave has the option of using 2 separate websites into 1 Tave account or you basically need to setup 2 accounts? Thanks again!
Scott McKenna Ok. Great! As far as contracts are concerned, should I put both the bride & the groom under contract, either or, or whoever is paying the money(i.e mom, aunt, uncle)?
Long episode but I hope you find it helpful. Thanks for watching.

CK Magic 100% understand it's stupid boring lol. BUT so necessary. That's why I made it. Lots of people were curious as to how I do things.
Hi Scott! How much time did you put in to set TAVE in the beginning?
Thank you so much for all the info you give!

It's incredible. I don't know how I'd survive without it.
This is honestly the most helpful video I've watched. New to the business and its great to get started on a good foundation. Thanks for the info and for the 60 day trial!
So pumped to hear. Thanks for watching.
thank you for this, great info! keep it up
Love this guy!

Thank you for sharing this Scott. Appreciated.
So glad you liked it. Thanks for watching David

Hi Scott! I’m interested in seeing if you still use this software today? If not what have you changed to and why?
I still use it and I still love it.
Hey Scott! I just set up Tave. Could you do a more in depth video on how to use it as a beginner?
You'll love Tave, it's super powerful. They have tons of great videos to learn it on their web site. Also, I strongly encourage you to join the facebook group. People are super helpful there as well.
this is really informative especially for starters like myself. Thank you so much! God bless!
BenFilm Production so glad to hear it helped. Super useful program

Marcos Rocha so glad this was helpful. I do all the contracts in tave.
You rock ! Great video ! Thanks so much.
Hi Scott Great video do you send commercial Video clients a price list
super super helpful
Appreciate you sharing Scott - what app do you use for photographing & importing receipts to Tave?
I don't use Tave for receipts and all of that.

+The FVLOG I didn’t like 17 hats at all. Way to basic for me. Anything can be automated with Táve. It’s so nice.
That's a relief that you've heard of them and can compare them. That helps in my decision making processes.

Hey Scott is it really usefull?
Still use this software in 2021?
Yes I am. Still works great for me.

Yes. 1 account and two different brands.
@@scottmckenna Thanks!
Does Tave offers customizable contract/invoice templates like Microsoft Word?
Yes and much better than MS word
Scott McKenna Ok. Great! As far as contracts are concerned, should I put both the bride & the groom under contract, either or, or whoever is paying the money(i.e mom, aunt, uncle)?
I'm really looking into using Tave! However, I'm curious to know if it's necessary to purchase QuickBooks along with Tave?
I have an accountant so I don’t do the taxes. I just export everything from Táve for expenses and income and give it to him.
Scott McKenna Ok. Great! Thanks Scott
Do you still recommend TAVE?
I still use it to this day. I don’t think I’d say it’s the best but it works for me and I don’t feel like switching.
@@scottmckenna Very interesting! Thank you!
...everything except accounting--lol!
Tave doesnt have accounting? Know any other software that i can use?
What are you looking for accounting wise? I keep all my income, expenses and info in here. It works perfectly.
