BE SURE ANY SESSION YOU WANT TO SHOW UP ON INSPIREDBYYOU.COM 2.0 DOES NOT HAVE AN EXPIRE DATE IN THE PAST, ANY THAT DO WILL NOT BE UP AVAILABLE TO YOUR CLIENTS.
We know you're eager to try out the new InspiredByYou website (We like to call it "InspiredByYou 2.0"!) and we're excited for you to see it! Before making the switch, those of you using the old InspiredByYou.com (meaning you already have client sessions, images, or contracts visible online) need to complete the set-up process before upgrading to the new version! Completing the setup will help ensure your clients have a seamless transition to the new site.
If you're a current user, please be aware of the fact that after February 1st 2021, your transaction fee rate will be at 5% to match all other users - which is still significantly lower than our competitors! Granting the longer 3% timeframe is our gift to you for being a long-time InspiredByYou.com user.
Important Note for New Users to InspiredByYou.com : This checklist is only for those who currently utilize InspiredByYou.com currently and have client information and images on the site. If you do NOT use the old site, please go to the New Users section.
We have some new features that will track guest clients who've signed up via InspiredByYou, including which client referred them (think sharing guest links, posts to social networking sites), and some new trigger features driven by the statuses you setup here, so we recommend you review your existing items.
Client Statuses - Add a new Client Status to be used when a Guest Client wants to purchase images from another Client's Session (Maintenance > Client > Client Statuses). This will be used on the new record created for that Guest. For more information on Client Statuses, click here. Lead Source - Add a new Lead Source to automatically be added to any Guest Client created. This can provide info on how many new clients have purchased from other clients' Sessions, and how many of those booked a session (Maintenance > Client > Lead Source). For more information on Lead Sources, click here. Session Types - Any Session Type used on InspiredByYou.com must have a Web Price List selected and a Default Duration Online number of days set. This will automatically set the Web Expire Date on any Session that gets uploaded. (Maintenance > Session > Session Types). For more information on Session Types, click here.
Session Statuses - Add a new Session Status for when a Session is ready for upload to InspiredByYou, or use one of the already existing ones. (Maintenance > Session > Session Statuses). Next, Create a Status that notes the Session has successfully uploaded to InspiredbyYou. Once a session is in that status, it will be ready to show online. - and be sure to check the box "Show Online". Since the images are now uploaded to the stratus drive, flagging this box will allow them to be seen online. Finally, create a session status for when the upload may fail (ie. “Upload Failed”). You'll be using these Statuses in step 6 below. For more information on Session Statuses, click here.
Invoice Statuses - If you'd like clients to be able to see where their order is in the process, add an Online Description to existing Invoices Statuses or add new Invoice Status and add an Online Description (Maintenance > Invoice > Invoice Statuses). If you plan on offering clients Prepaid orders and then adding the images to that order via InspiredByYou, add a new status to be used on those invoices once they've been submitted back by your client. For more information on Invoice Statuses, click here.
Only a few clients will want, or need, to use this Shipping Method. If you would like more info, follow this link.
