Improved Booking Proposal signing page and 15 other updates

Your experience matters to us, and we’re committed to ongoing improvement and striving to make Sprout better for you.

For 542 weeks (and counting), we’ve been passionately committed to the photography industry, ensuring Sprout is the ultimate all-in-one business tool for photographers. Every day, Sprout improves.

This week, enjoy 15 new updates:

• When you go to sign a Booking Proposal as the photographer, the “your client signed” screen now shows all invoices and payments, giving you clear details without needing to go back into the order.
• You can now search in the “default workflow” dropdown in settings, making it easier to find workflows.
• If you click a link to sign up to Sprout after your subscription expires, it won’t open the signup pop-up twice.
• The shop preview now updates correctly between dark and light mode for the “hero” section.
• We have removed the “demo” cart display on the price guide.
• The email list page now shows undelivered emails in an error state, making it clear if an email wasn’t sent.
• You can now add a new Questionnaire on mobile by clicking the + button.
• Text for checkboxes and radio buttons on a Contact Form can now be edited on mobile.
• Added a limitation to restrict you from deleting a Shoot Workflow that’s being used by a Booking Proposal Template, preventing odd behaviour.
• Orders added on mobile within a Shoot > Order page now attach to the shoot as intended.
• Notification Emails are now properly encoded to eliminate display issues with special characters.
• When editing your Price List, the icon chooser in simple display in visualizer works correctly after navigating away and returning.
• Your logo will now display in higher resolution on all frontend pages for retina screens.
• The word “deposit” has been removed from “deposit amount” in the checkout modal.
• Some layouts in the shop that use the Sprout visualizer are now properly centred and cropped.
• Resending an already sent email now sends out the email as intended.

This week, we’re shining the spotlight on the improved Booking Proposal signing page.

After your client signs their contract in a Booking Proposal, you must counter-sign it to confirm the booking and convert the Lead into a Shoot in Sprout Studio. We’ve enhanced this booking page to provide you, the photographer, with more information to review while signing.

Now, when you review the booking and prepare to sign, you’ll see:

• The package they booked
• The total amount your client spent
• Their shoot date and any other scheduled dates
• Their invoices, each with its due date, amount and paid-to-date
• A quick link to view each invoice
• A “book” button to open the contract to counter-sign it
• An alternative button that allows you to cancel the contract and book the Shoot without it

Nic from our team who worked on this feature, shares, “These updates improve the photographer's access to information about the BP that the client filled out. Previously much of the invoice info was only accessible by clicking into the order itself, now the photographer can see at-a-glance when the invoices for this BP Order are due and if they've been paid before they sign the contract on their end.”

We’re thrilled to keep enhancing Sprout Studio for you and look forward to you experiencing these updates. Thank you for being part of the Sprout family!
