GoHighLevel Implementation: How Automize’s 5-Step Build Runs

Ryan Van Tricht and the Automize team follow the same five steps on every GoHighLevel build: discovery call, proposal and plan, access and inputs from you, build and test, then launch and handoff. This page explains what happens at each step and what we need from you, so nothing about the process is a surprise. If you are still deciding who should build your system, read how to hire a GoHighLevel implementation expert.

How does a GoHighLevel build run at Automize?

  1. Discovery call. We learn how your business runs, what isn’t working and what the system needs to do. You also fill in a short questionnaire about your business.
  2. Proposal and plan. You get a fixed-price proposal with clear phases and deliverables. Once you approve it, we map every process and agree on the build plan with you before anything is built.
  3. What we need from you. Access to your GHL account and connected tools by user invitation, your branding and copy, and someone who can make decisions when questions come up.
  4. Build and test. We build everything in a separate test environment, so nothing your team or customers use is touched. We test every process from start to finish, including the edge cases, before your staff try it themselves.
  5. Launch and handoff. Once you approve, we go live and check that everything works in your real account. Your team gets a full handoff, covered below.

Why your live account stays untouched until you approve

Test environment
We build every workflow, form and pipeline here and test each process from start to finish.

Your approval
Your team tries it only after our testing is done. You sign off before anything goes live.

Your live account
We go live and check that everything works in the real account.

How long does a GoHighLevel build take, and what does it cost?

How long a build takes, and what it costs, depends on your business, your account and the tools it connects to. We settle both in discovery, so the proposal you approve is specific to you.

What happens after handoff?

You can still reach Ryan Van Tricht after handoff. Clients often add work once they have used the system for a while, and any additional work is scoped and billed separately. For ongoing work after launch, we offer pre-paid hours in bulk and monthly retainers of six months or more.

What your team receives at handoff

Written guides
Step-by-step guides with screenshots.

Frequently asked questions

How do you get access to my GoHighLevel account?

We ask for access to your GHL account and connected tools by user invitation.

Will you build in my live account?

No. We build everything in a separate test environment first, so nothing your team or customers use is touched until you approve the launch.

What do I get at the end?

Step-by-step guides with screenshots, recorded walkthroughs and a training session for your team.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. You receive a fixed-price proposal with clear phases and deliverables before any building starts.

Ready to have it built correctly?

Ryan Van Tricht works directly with you. No account managers between you and the work.

Who builds your system

I’m Ryan Van Tricht, Founder & CEO of Automize and a Business Automation Strategist. I have 9 years in business and automation, including 6 years specializing in GoHighLevel. I’m certified in Infusionsoft/Keap, ActiveCampaign and Zapier, with deep command of HubSpot, Ontraport, Shopify, n8n, WordPress and WooCommerce. One example: for a multi-location home services company running HVAC, plumbing and electrical work, I connected GoHighLevel to its scheduling, payment and call-tracking tools so staff stopped re-entering the same customer information by hand. See the home services integration case study.
