What’s in the Pro Plus Membership + Automations Setup Package?
To get Automations, you need to upgrade to the Pro Plus Membership.
The Pro Plus Membership is $197 per month. The Pro Plus Membership includes the Pro Membership. It is only a $118 increase from the Pro Membership.
- We have a lot of experience getting members up and running. From tech gurus to people who, frankly, hate technology.
- We’ve read a lot from other software companies, and listened to their advice.
This combination of experience and knowledge has taught us one thing:
You are going to be much more successful with Automations if we help you get set up. As we continue to roll this out, this Setup Package may evolve as we learn what to do - and what not to do.

Does This Sound “Too Technical” for You?
You can make Automations that are incredibly complex…
Or incredibly simple.
Quite frankly, some of the simplest Automations are the most powerful.
They can save your team dozens to hundreds of hours this year. Or, greatly increase your close rate on new clients.
"One of our simplest “email follow-up” Automations has made our company $150,000+"
There are also plenty of “done-for-you” Automations available on the Marketplace. So, you can just take those and not have to build your own.
Our ideal is that we train you, so you can do all of this on your own… easily.

What Took You So Long?
(The Story of Automations)
More than seven years ago, we started with a vision.
We called ourselves “Service Autopilot” because we wanted to help service businesses run… on Autopilot.
Unfortunately, that early dream was too ambitious for us. We realized we needed to focus on the core of our system before we could even think about automating.
One year passed…
Then another…
Until one day, we said, “Finally! This is it. We have the time, resources and know how to build this thing.”
That was almost three years ago. Now, we have an internal Automations team that only works on Automations. The team is made up of:
- Testers
- Developers
- Business analysts
- Automations Support Specialists
They do not work on anything else - we don’t want to distract them, we want them to focus their expertise on this because it’s so important to us.
It’s been a long time coming… because we have to get it right.
(We even spent several months quietly overhauling our underlying Architecture. Why? So we can scale Automations as your companies grow bigger... and still have everything run faster).
Automations is the Foundation of where we’re going as a company.
We want to make Service Autopilot do as much as possible for you:
- Send out text messages
- Upsell relevant services to clients
- Assign to-dos and keep your team in motion
- Notify you of things that aren’t getting done, unpaid invoices, etc.
Automations will keep growing. We will keep fine-tuning, and keep adding from here, until there is nothing else Automations can possibly do (that could take a few decades!).
There are two more phases to Automations that we’re not ready to talk about publically, but the core of what we’re trying to do is now released.
Right now, Automations focuses on Clients and Leads - because we decided that was the part of the system that was of primary importance.
Next, we will connect Employees to Automations so you can use Service Autopilot for recruiting, job applications, building your virtual bench of employees and more...
What Will Automations Do for Your Business (Right Now)?
There are two really strong examples that I think will explain to you exactly why Automations will revolutionize your business.
In fact, after reading these, I think you’ll understand why we believe this is the future of the Service Industry.
(Automatic) Outstanding Customer Service
If you’ve ever taken an Academy session, or watched my Lawn Care Millionaire videos, you’ve probably heard this phrase before:
“Wow your clients.”
When you can differentiate your company based on Customer Service, you can own your market. Why?
- You can charge more.
- People will forgive you for accidents.
- Your clients will LOVE to refer you to their friends and family.
Great customer service is one of the best ways to grow your business… Here’s a quick story:
The Fairmont Hotel Story
Recently, I went on a trip to Hawaii. I’m not trying to brag (though it was incredible). I just wanted to tell you about an experience I had.
We checked in to our Hotel - the Fairmont Hotel in Maui - an hour before we actually arrived at the Hotel. We were hungry, and didn’t want to go to our room yet.
Well, as soon as I checked in… my phone buzzed.
This is the future of customer service.
Automations is going to multiply your staff.
Your clients will be in awe of how you seem to be everywhere.
Boost your “personal attention” with each of your clients:
- Send service reminders through text.
- Send follow up emails or surveys for better quality.
- Give each client that “personal touch” to make them feel special.
This is going to make it simple to “wow your clients.” All of them.
Multiply Your Selling Power (and Your Profits)
That last example was fairly simple.
This one is a little more complex.
I want to show you how Automations will enable you to rapidly upsell a new service - or automatically upsell a service to a client exactly when they want it most.
Palms Trees and Cold Weather in Texas
Don’t know if you know a whole lot about palm trees, but they do not like cold weather.
Occasionally, it freezes here in Texas.
When it looks like it might freeze, it’s very easy to upsell a Palm Tree Winterization service to our clients. And very profitable for us (winter months usually don’t have a lot of work).
So, let’s say we see it’s going to freeze.
We have already tagged our clients who have Palm Trees.
All we need to do is activate our automation, and boom - we send out a text message to each of those clients.
“Greetings. We just heard it’s suppose to freeze next week. Do you need us to winterize your Palm Trees?”
Simple, right?
But it gets more complicated…
Instead of having to manually respond to all of those text messages, Automations can do it for you.
If they respond with a “Yes” or a “Do it” or a “Get it done,” then it automatically spawns a next action, such as creating a to-do or sending out an email. It will also text the client to confirm we got their request, and will take action.
If they respond with a question then our system is notified. One of our office staff is automatically assigned to the client to follow up and sell them on the service.
This is just one of the hundreds of ways you can use Automations to super-charge your efficiency.
Imagine if you had 5 full days where you could sell to 1 client.
What would you do?
How many times would you contact them? How easy would it be to sell to that one client if you spent that much time on them?
Now... multiply that by every client in your system. Multiply that by every new lead you plan on acquiring this year, and from here on out.
Automations is going to change the game. You can be one of the first.

Who Will Benefit from Automations?
The truth is… not everyone will make full use of Automations.
That’s fine. As we’ve stated, even a simple automation can help you 4x, 5x, or even 10x your investment.
Because Automations is about scale, smaller companies may not see as big an advantage from Automations.
For example, maybe it doesn’t take you long to respond to each of your clients right now.
Or, maybe setting up Automations will be a “time sink,” and you’d rather focus on other parts of your business.
When we set out to build Automations, we did not think this would be an “Absolute Must-Have” for all of our Members. This is similar to our reasoning behind the Startup and Pro versions of Service Autopilot.
Why it Might Make Sense to Wait
When you sign up for Automations, you will have to invest two things:
- Your time.
- The price of the Pro Plus Membership.
In our mind, the price is not the deciding factor. Automations will easily make back the money you invest. We are so certain that every dollar you spend on Automations, you will get back… and more.
But there is a real concern that you may not have the time to deal with Automations right now.
If you are just starting your season….
If you don’t have any time to be in the office right now to learn Automations...
Put this off. Put it off until the summer, or next year, or whenever you’re ready.
From Our Research, Many People Were Under-utilizing their Automation System
Back when we were first researching Automations, we did a ton of research on other Automation systems.
Most of these were (and still are) primarily “email automation” systems. These are not cheap systems. They started around $200 per month.
What we found was that many people were barely using their systems.
They were essentially only using the smallest parts. Yet, these parts could easily be found in other, much cheaper systems.
In some cases, they could’ve gotten away with free email marketing systems.
We Want to See You Win
We want to see you win - as much as possible - with Automations. In our mind, you will want to use multiple Automations for every part of your business.
If you are not ready, we would rather you wait until you have time to get familiar with Automations.
That way, when you come back, you implement multiple automations, and you win.
We will be here, ready to help you.
Other Options for Your Business
I’m going to be honest.
We are not the only system out there that can automate parts of your business. If you’re not totally sold on Automations, I encourage you to go look at those other solutions:
- Ontraport
- Infusionsoft
- Marketo
- Hubspot
- Eloqua
- Maropost
- Salesforce (the top-tier subscription)
If you’re not sure about Automations, I suggest you look around and see what’s right for your company. Hopefully it’s Service Autopilot, but we don’t want you to spend money on us if we’re not going to be your best option for making money.
You’ll find that some of these systems have more functionality than we have (at least for now)… but we have a lot of advantages over them.
Our biggest advantage is that we connect with every part of your business. You’re already using Service Autopilot; get more out of it.
Automations is the Future of Service Autopilot.
This was our vision from the start. Seven years ago, it was too ambitious for us. We had to focus on getting the core product up to speed.
But now, our Automations team is going full speed.
We have invested so much into this team because it is so critical to the future of our Members’ - and to the future of this industry.
The Waiting List: First Come, First Serve
Because there is such a high demand for Automations, after you sign up you will be placed in the Waiting List. Companies who sign up first will be placed higher on the Waiting list.
That means: the sooner you sign up, the sooner you get to use Automations.
This is to ensure that each of our Members gets the full training and attention they deserve. It’s critical to us that everyone who tries Automations loves it.
We had 238 Members sign up for our Beta. Of those, only 5 opted to stop using Automations. That’s how we know we’re doing things right… so far.
We want to make sure we keep giving this our 110% best efforts. As such, the Waiting List may be a few months long.
We will get to everyone as fast as we can.
We will not start charging you for Automations until they are activated on your account.
We will not charge you for Automations until we start the Setup process with you.
