What is it?
‘Smart Docs’ allow you to create custom documents your clients/students can use to:
Complete worksheets that may be a part of your program or work together,
Create plans based on the fields you provide,
Complete work you can view, track, or provide feedback on.
Add documents to your trainings, so clients/students can have keep their work in one platform.
For example, our Co-Founder, Todd Herman, has a program in his 90 Day Year company, where people map out their strategy, goals, and projects for the next 90 days. He’s created a simple and straightforward ‘Smart Doc’ which allows everyone to complete the planning document, update their goals, and keep track of projects.
Then in the next 90 Days, they can simply duplicate that ‘Smart Doc’ and keep a series of historical documents of their planning and growth.
Why would you use it?
To provide added value to your clients/students, a single place where all the action is happening, and prevent your clients (and you) from losing track of worksheets or work completed. Most importantly, empower you or your coaches with the ease and opportunity to provide feedback, encouragement, and accountability on the work being completed.
