1. What Are Snapshots? Why They Matter
GoHighLevel snapshots are full business system templates. They bundle your:
- Funnels
- Websites
- Automations & workflows
- Offers
- Forms & surveys
- Calendars
- Custom fields and more
All into a reusable, one-click-importable package.
Instead of building a new sub-account from scratch, just deploy a snapshot and tweak.
Core Snapshot Types
| Source | Use Case |
|---|---|
| Built-in Snapshots | GoHighLevel’s 26 niche templates |
| Your Own | Reuse successful setups across clients |
| Third-party Snapshots | Purchase from snapshot creators |
Snapshots are foundational for anyone running:
- A SaaS powered by GoHighLevel
- A niche agency onboarding new clients
- A white-label service or consulting offer
- A side hustle selling marketing systems
2. Real-World Use Cases for Snapshots
1. Speed Up Client Onboarding
Launch new client accounts in minutes — prebuilt automations, forms, calendars, and more are ready to go.
2. Power Niche SaaS Products
Create a custom solution (e.g., for dentists, gyms, coaches) by bundling GoHighLevel with a specialized snapshot.
Examples:
- Enrollio – Dance studio SaaS with studio-specific automations
- SalonOps – Beauty salon CRM + marketing with preloaded offers and workflows
3. Sell Digital Systems
Agencies or marketers can sell proven snapshots to other GoHighLevel users. Some creators charge $100–$1,000+ per snapshot.
4. Clone Winning Accounts
Got a successful setup? Clone it as a snapshot, adjust, and deploy to the next client.
3. Create, Customize, and Deploy Snapshots (Step-by-Step)
✅ How to Create a Snapshot
- Go to Agency View → Account Snapshots → My Snapshots
- Click Create New Snapshot
- Name it + select the sub-account you want to clone
- Confirm included assets (everything gets copied — no granular selection)
- Click Create
Pro Tip: If you only want part of a sub-account, clone it first, remove extras, then snapshot the clean version.
✅ How to Use a Snapshot
- In Agency View, go to Sub-Accounts → Create Sub-Account
- Choose from:
- Built-in templates
- Your own snapshots
- Imported third-party snapshots
- Click Select & Continue, complete setup, and the snapshot auto-loads
Everything inside is ready to be customized — branding, automations, offers, etc.
✅ How to Update a Snapshot
Want to revise a snapshot you’ve already created?
- Modify the original sub-account
- Go to My Snapshots
- Click the circular arrow to refresh the snapshot
- OR use the up-arrow to push updates to linked sub-accounts
⚠️ Snapshot updates only work within your own GoHighLevel account. If others are using your snapshot, you’ll need to resend them an updated share link.
4. Selling Snapshots: How to Turn Them Into Revenue
Why Snapshots Sell:
- Save agencies hours of work
- Provide niche-specific solutions instantly
- Turn your know-how into a product
How to Export a Snapshot for Sale
- Go to My Snapshots
- Click the 3 dots next to a snapshot → Share Snapshot
- Choose how to share:
- One-Time Share Link → for selling (prevents reuse)
- Email Share Link → also limited to one use
- Permanent Link → for free sharing
- Restricted Links (Pro only) → control access by agency or sub-account
Typical Pricing:
| Snapshot Type | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Niche-specific, simple | $50 – $200 |
| Complete business systems | $500 – $1,500+ |
| Custom-built for clients | $1,000+ service |
5. Adding Snapshots to SaaS Plans (And What It Unlocks)
This is where GoHighLevel Pro ($497/mo) becomes extremely powerful.
How to Attach a Snapshot to a SaaS Plan:
- Go to SaaS Configurator in Agency View
- Edit a plan → Go to the Features tab
- Click Add Snapshot
- Select from your own or imported snapshots
- Click Attach
⚠️ You cannot use GoHighLevel’s built-in templates in SaaS plans — only your own or licensed imports.
This is how you build unique SaaS products powered by GoHighLevel. The snapshot becomes the value of your SaaS.
6. Limitations You Need to Know
Snapshots are powerful — but not everything carries over.
❌ What Snapshots DO NOT Include:
- Contact data (emails, names, tasks)
- Company info & admin settings
- Messages or conversation threads
- Third-party app integrations
- Custom domains & tracking codes
- Custom widget styling
- Reputation or review data
Snapshots are infrastructure, not data.
7. Consultant-Style Recommendations by Use-Case
| If You Are… | Snapshot Strategy |
|---|---|
| Niche SaaS Builder | Build from scratch → refine → productize |
| Agency Scaling to Many Clients | Clone winning setups → templatize → reuse |
| Digital Product Seller | Create 1–3 high-demand industry snapshots |
| Freelancer → SaaS Founder | Partner with niche consultants for content |
| Coaching Business | Preload entire client journey via snapshot |
Snapshots turn your knowledge into infrastructure. That’s how you scale systems, not just sales.
8. Final Takeaway: Snapshots Aren’t Optional — They’re Leverage
GoHighLevel snapshots aren’t just convenient — they’re a strategic multiplier for anyone building digital businesses:
- Faster onboarding
- Repeatable systems
- Sellable digital assets
- Differentiated SaaS products
Use them to scale operations, create products, or multiply client value — fast. If you’re not building or using snapshots, you’re building from scratch… every time.
