If you’re treating snapshots like a giant “everything but the kitchen sink” project, you’re doing it wrong. ❌
On a recent coaching call, Mario Aldayuz (Head of Partnerships r at HL Pro Tools) broke down how to build smarter, simpler snapshots that scale with your agency — instead of slowing you down.
Here’s the real talk you need 👇
Snapshots Should Launch You, Not Trap You
First things first: Snapshots are meant to get your clients onboarded FAST.
Not bog them down with a hundred confusing automations they’ll never use.
Mario’s advice?
- ✅ Start small. Focus on core features first.
- ✅ Build based on real client needs, not your guesses.
It’s all about a “just-in-time” (JIT) development mindset — add features when they’re actually needed, not because you might need them someday.
You’re not building the Death Star. You’re building a machine that makes clients say, “Holy crap, this is exactly what I needed.”
Modular Add-Ons = Your Secret Weapon
Another tip Mario dropped: Think modular.
Instead of cramming everything into one mega-snapshot, create smaller, optional add-ons your clients can plug into when they’re ready.
Example:
- Core snapshot = CRM basics.
- Add-on module = AI bot integrations.
- Another add-on = Advanced marketing automations.
Black Highlight:
- ✅ Keeps your main offer clean and fast.
- ✅ Gives clients control over what they want (and upsells you naturally!).
- ✅ Helps you avoid messy “one-size-fits-none” systems.
Flexibility = 🔑 for both scaling and client happiness.
Why Overbuilding Hurts You (More Than You Think)
I get it. You want to impress clients. You want to be ready for anything.
But when you overbuild snapshots, you actually create:
- 😫 More support headaches.
- 📉 Slower client onboarding.
- 🛑 More resistance because clients get overwhelmed.
Mario’s advice? Make snapshots your starting point, not your final product. Launch simple.
Learn fast. Improve over time based on actual user feedback.
Clients don’t care about bells and whistles. They care about getting results today.
