Inspired by the famous quote from Gandhi about being the change you want to see in the world, we've launched the BeChange Package. This is a bundle of services designed for individuals and small businesses creating positive change. Our current focus is to support coaches and teachers in the health and wellness industry but we'll soon be expanding it to include other social entrepreneurs. The BeChange services include managed marketing and logistics backed by an integrated website and CRM system.

Administration

Business Management

Yellowseed has developed a business management system for small business and social entrepreneurs. Designed to manage your contacts, registrations, courses, and documents, this system can also organize and track phone calls, support issues, and tasks. The entire system is web-based so your data is stored on a central secure server and can be accessed by assigned users, at the any time, from any location in the world. This means you will always have instant access to your latest registrations, payments, contact details, phone calls and more.

Website Management

Yellowseed manages your website using a content management system (CMS) called ExpressionEngine. This CMS integrates with our business management system to display all your courses and workshops to website visitors while providing a seamless method for online registration and payment. ExpressionEngine also allows you to easily add or update any content on your website and comes with a blog, photo gallery, discussion forum, shopping cart and more.

Reception

Yellowseed uses Voice-Over-IP (VOIP) technology to make or take calls on your behalf. When you need us to answer your phone, simply forward your incoming line to our VOIP number. If you want to make the process even more seamless, we can set up the VOIP number as your primary contact number to be shared between you and our admin staff. The phone number can be forwarded to us at any time, wherever you are in the world.

Payment Processing

Based on 4 years of experience in this sector, Yellowseed recommends PayPal for payment processing. PayPal is a secure, affordable and widely embraced method for online payments. Yellowseed can integrate PayPal into your website payment process for fast and easy payments.

How we’re different:

There are a number of reasons why we can offer such an affordable service:

1. We mashup powerful Web 2.0 technology like Gmail, Google Calendar,  and Freshbooks, and web-based open-source technology ExpressionEngine, CodeIgniter, PHP and MySQL.
2. We use VOIP technology (Internet telephony) which allows us to make and receive calls at a low cost from any location in the world. This helps us reduce the overhead of central offices and expensive communications infrastructure.
3. We share development costs and management staff between many clients and we maximize the cost/benefit ratio by working with clients in a similar field. This allows us to deliver a highly personalized service at a low cost.
4. We have 4 years of experience working with one of Canada’s largest and most successful yoga teacher training organizations.
