Optimize credit allocation for agency clients to balance flexibility and cost control.

​
Understanding Client Credits

When you add a client to Workspace CRM, allocate:
  • Monthly credits - Recurring, resets each month
  • One-time credits - Added manually for projects
Clients use these for AI editing on their websites.

Charge for Overages

When clients exceed allocation:
  • Add one-time credits
  • Invoice for the top-up
  • Track in CRM billing
4

Review Monthly

Check which clients:
  • Never use credits (reduce?)
  • Always run out (increase or upsell?)
  • Have unusual spikes (training needed?)

​
Handling Credit Requests

When clients ask for more:
  1. Check history - Using efficiently?
  2. Understand need - One-time or ongoing?
  3. Offer options:
    • One-time addition (projects)
    • Increased monthly (ongoing)
    • Package upgrade

​
Training Clients

Help clients use credits wisely:
  1. Batch edits - Multiple changes per session
  2. Be specific - Clear prompts = fewer revisions
  3. Use preview - Check before publishing
  4. Plan updates - Group monthly changes

​
Tracking Profitability

Your cost: Credits used × per-credit cost
Client pays: Monthly package fee
Margin: Client pays - Your cost
Example:
  • Client uses 80 credits/month
  • Your cost: ~$8
  • Client pays: $199/month
  • Margin: $191
