Mistakes we prevent
The 8 most common GoHighLevel setup mistakes
Every one of these costs leads. Every one is handled in every Revset setup.
Sending email from an unauthenticated domain
Emails land in spam from day one. We connect and authenticate your sending domain (SPF, DKIM, DMARC).
Texting before A2P registration
US carriers block or filter unregistered business texts. We file A2P 10DLC before you send.
Importing contacts with no tags or consent
You can’t segment or legally message them. We import with source tags and consent records.
A pipeline that doesn’t match how you sell
Nobody moves deals, so reports mean nothing. We map stages to your real sales process.
Calendars not synced
Double bookings and missed appointments. We sync Google or Outlook and set availability rules.
Workflows switched on without testing
Leads get duplicate texts, or none at all. We test every workflow with a test contact first.
No missed-call text-back
Every missed call is a lost lead. We switch it on in every setup.
No training for the team
The account works, but nobody uses it. We hand over with a walkthrough and written notes.
