I’m still buzzing from this weekend’s Desfiles de los Locos celebration here in San Miguel! If you’ve never heard of it, picture this: the entire town shuts down, the streets are filled with color, music, and dancing, and a massive parade winds its way through for four hours straight. It’s one of those moments where you’re reminded why you love being where you are.

But now, back to business! This week’s newsletter is packed with practical tools to help you keep things running smoothly. We’re covering how to customize your link URLs with your branded domain, set up URL redirects, and manage your billing and credits so your service stays uninterrupted.

Personal Support to Build Your Business

One of the things I love most is helping business owners create something that works for them. I know from experience that no two businesses are the same, and what works for one person might not suit another at all. That’s why we created the Elite Coaching Program. It’s not about handing you a cookie-cutter plan—it’s about working together 1:1 to map out the right systems for your business, in a way that feels manageable and makes sense. If you’re ready for a bit of extra support without the overwhelm, this is here for you.

Need a Bit of Extra Help? Here’s an Option I Recommend

I get it—sometimes the to-do list just feels endless, and you can’t do it all on your own (nor should you have to). That’s why I’ve partnered with a team I trust who provide skilled virtual assistants, certified in the software, from as little as $12.50/hour. They’re used to working with business owners like you, and they understand how to slot into the gaps and help you move forward. It could be just what you need to take a little pressure off while you focus on what matters most.

This week I wanted to share some practical tools to help you tighten up the little things that can make a big difference in how your business runs. These are small changes that can help you look more professional, avoid headaches down the track, and make life easier for both you and your customers.

Gold Star Pro: How to Customize Link URLs with Your Own Branded Domain

If you’re still using the default links that come with your system, this is worth a look. Setting up a branded domain for your links means that everything you share—whether it’s a form, funnel, or email link—shows your own business name, not a generic one. It’s a simple change that helps build trust with your customers and makes your business look more polished.

Gold Star Pro: Managing Billing and Credits for Uninterrupted Service

We’ve all had that heart-stopping moment when something stops working because of a billing issue. This training helps you understand how to keep your account up-to-date, manage credits, and avoid those unexpected interruptions. It’s a small bit of housekeeping that can save a lot of stress later.

URL Redirects with Gold Star Pro

Changing a page or updating a funnel is part of running an online business, but broken links can confuse customers and lose you leads. This training shows you how to set up simple URL redirects so that if someone clicks an old link, they’re automatically taken to the right place—no need to worry about missing out on those opportunities.

Smoother Visitor Tracking to Help You Stay on Top of Customer Flow

It’s now simpler to see who’s visiting your business and when, thanks to new improvements in Gold Star Pro’s visitor tracking tools. We’ve made it quicker to check visitor logs and easier to spot repeat customers, helping you provide a more personal touch.

These updates are designed to save you time and give you clearer insights into your busiest hours — perfect for small business owners who want to plan staffing or special offers.

New Star Ratings Make Customer Surveys More Helpful

Surveys in Gold Star Pro now include an easy star rating option, making it quicker for customers to share feedback and easier for you to understand how you’re doing.

With simple ratings alongside written comments, you can spot trends at a glance and act on what matters most to your business. It’s a great way to keep improving service while saving time on reviewing feedback.

Add a Professional Touch with New Logo Carousels

Gold Star Pro now lets you easily showcase your partners, brands, or certifications with the new logo carousel feature on your pages.

This simple addition helps your business look more polished and builds trust with visitors by highlighting the great companies or organizations you work with.

It’s an easy way to make your website stand out and share what makes your business special.

Share Documents Easily with Our New File Download Feature

Gold Star Pro now lets you add downloadable files to your pages, so you can share things like menus, brochures, or forms directly with your customers.

This makes it simple for visitors to get the information they need without extra steps, helping you provide a smoother experience and keep everything in one place.
