Our gym&rsquo;s number one mission is providing our members the education, the training, and the support that it takes to develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle and a high quality of life.</p><p>We hold roughly 5 group classes daily where we give an extremely hands-on approach to coaching, running our members through guided warm-ups, movement and technique progression, as well as a workout of the day. We primarily offer group classes, in addition to nutrition programs, and other specialty programs such as flexibility classes and kid&rsquo;s only classes.</p><p><strong>What are your day-to-day responsibilities?</strong></p><p>I am owner and head coach here. I like to say that I wear many hats when it comes to the various roles that I fulfill each day! From writing the workout of the day each day and putting together a cohesive fitness program, to organizing our coaching schedule, designing and maintaining our website, to tidying up the bathroom &ndash; all fall under day-to-day tasks.</p><p><strong>How did you get started?</strong></p><p>Without initially having a physical location, we started running classes&nbsp;outside utilizing a local park. With just four&nbsp;extremely loyal members, we managed to hold classes three times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights. Combining the unwavering support from our members, and a &ldquo;years-in-the-making&rdquo; burning passion to open my own gym, we found the right place at the right time and opened full time in our very own facility.</p><p><strong>What have been some key factors in growing your business?</strong></p><p>People! By far, the single most important part of our growth has been the</p><p>people. What I mean by that are the numerous incredible members that we proudly coach and have within our community. The greatest investment that has continued to pay off has been in those who make up our community. At our gym we believe that spending the time to show care, support, and appreciation for our members is the single most important growth factor. Taking that extra time to stay and talk with someone after class about their progress, or messaging someone after hours and letting them know you&rsquo;re proud of them, are all some of the small things that manifest themselves into a strong sense of belonging in our community.</p><p>This in itself has resulted in much of our growth, not only in the form of&nbsp;membership retention, but also in the form of referrals and numerous&nbsp;friends and family of our members also joining us over time.</p><p>Another huge key factor is in an important business philosophy. We believe that in the end, it&rsquo;s not about the money. Yes, the money is our lifeblood and we need to maintain the influx of it, but it is not the reason why our gym exists. Focusing on truly working to make the lives of our&nbsp;members better has been our number one intention and end goal since the beginning. This has allowed us to focus more on delivering an exceptional product, as opposed to only looking to find ways to profit the most off of the people who value and trust our guidance. Integrity is an extremely important core value at our gym.</p><p><strong>What do you use MoonClerk for?</strong></p><p>MoonClerk has been a fantastic solution for our payment processing,&nbsp;specifically for our monthly recurring membership options, as well as&nbsp;various other payment plans.</p><p><strong>Before MoonClerk, did you use another payment system? </strong></p><p>We dabbled in the dark ages of cash and check for far too long before&nbsp;making the switch. The hassle of needing to regularly hunt down members for their monthly membership payments was stressful, awkward, and frankly, made it difficult to keep track of our income and when members needed to pay.</p><p><strong>How did these problems affect your business?</strong></p><p>The largest issue was that a member&rsquo;s monthly payment would run out and it would be time for their rebill. Human nature imparts that we forget things often, in which case gym membership was not left untouched! Members would accrue stretches of unpaid time in which they essentially took our classes for free.</p><p><strong>What made you decide to use MoonClerk?</strong></p><p>MoonClerk was one of the options I had found during a search for an online payment system. The system was well polished, easy to use and&nbsp;understand, as well as having a flawless integration system into our website.</p><p><strong>What was your experience when switching and getting started with&nbsp;</strong><strong>MoonClerk?</strong></p><p>The switch was simple enough that even someone with little internet or web experience could use it. Payments were instantly charged to member&rsquo;s credit cards and began them on perfectly consistent monthly recurring memberships. There were no hiccups during the entire process of the switch.</p><p><strong>What do you like about MoonClerk?</strong></p><p>MoonClerk offers a payment system that works flawlessly, rates highly in&nbsp;ease of use, and allows me to not have to worry about membership payments. All I need to do is acquire a member on my end, and MoonClerk takes care of the rest with their system.</p><p><strong>How has MoonClerk improved or helped your business?</strong></p><p>MoonClerk has made our 600% growth rate over 7 months a much simpler and hassle-free process. We are extremely grateful for what they provide, and at a fair price on top of it all.</p><p><strong>Any advice for others who are in similar industries?</strong></p><p>Coming from the perspective of a membership based business owner, I would recommend MoonClerk&rsquo;s services to anyone who has a similar system of operation. Being able to easily keep track of all of our income and just about guarantee on-time and consistent monthly payments has been a huge time and life saver!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you run your own CrossFit Box, <a href=\"https://www.moonclerk.com/payment-solutions/crossfit-software-for-billing/\">learn how MoonClerk can serve as your CrossFit software for billing.</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p>","featuredImage":null,"id":"DatoCmsPost-5639205-en","slug":"how-a-crossfit-box-grew-600-in-7-months-after-switching-to-moonclerk","title":"How A CrossFit Box Grew 600% In 7 Months After Switching To MoonClerk","date":"2015-10-19","meta":{"firstPublishedAt":"2020-07-21T11:50:05.712-04:00"}},"relatedPosts":{"nodes":[{"author":{"name":"Dodd Caldwell"},"category":{"title":"Customers","slug":"customers"},"content":"<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sonya Mehta talks with us about why her Virtual Assistant Staffing Agency uses MoonClerk to bill her customers and how she uses it to reduce her administrative billing costs by 50%.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img src=\"https://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1761761840-sonya-mehta-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.jpeg\" width=\"189\" height=\"230\" /></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Can you tell us a little about Expand Your Capacity?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At <span><a href=\"https://www.expand-your-capacity.com/\">Expand Your Capacity</a></span>, we help entrepreneurs and small business owners <strong>find and work with exceptional virtual assistants from around the world</strong> -- highly skilled professionals who bring care, curiosity, and initiative to everything they do. But our work doesn&rsquo;t stop at making a match. We provide <strong>ongoing training, coaching, and weekly check-ins</strong> to support both the client and the VA so the relationship can thrive long-term.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clients often come to us feeling overwhelmed, overworked, and unsure how to delegate effectively. Our goal is to create <strong>breathing room and sustainable systems</strong> so they can focus on the work only they can do. Because we believe in mutual growth, we are <strong>intentional about pairing clients with VAs who align not just in skills, but also in working style, communication preferences, and values</strong>.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What are your day-to-day responsibilities?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the Founder &amp; CEO of EYC, I set the vision, strategy, and culture for our agency. I lead the development of new programs and offerings, design scalable structures, and cultivate the conditions for our global team to thrive.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&rsquo;m in daily communication with our VAs to ensure they have the resources they need, while overseeing client onboarding and VA matching to ensure every partnership is set up for long-term success.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How did you get started?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It all started a few months after I made the leap into launching my own business. I hired my first VA as a personal assistant, and the impact was immediate. I finally had space to focus, rest, and stop feeling like I had to do everything alone.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The experience was so powerful that we initially started building a course to help others understand what hiring a VA could look like, how it worked, what to expect, and why it mattered. But we quickly realized most people didn&rsquo;t want just information, they wanted hands-on support. That&rsquo;s when we shifted from teaching people how to hire a VA to actually doing the hiring and matching for them, with the very first VA I brought on now serving as our agency&rsquo;s Chief of Staff.<span>&nbsp; </span>Since then, we&rsquo;ve built a proven playbook for high-touch matching, onboarding, and ongoing support &mdash; one that creates sustainable, human-centered partnerships where both clients and VAs can thrive.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span>&nbsp;</span><strong>What have been some key factors in growing your business?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our growth comes down to two things: <strong>our incredible team</strong> and our <strong>clear, experience-backed processes.</strong>Our VAs are at the heart of everything we do, and we make sure they&rsquo;re set up for success with clear step-by-step guides, regular opportunities to grow their skills, and the support they need to help clients delegate with ease.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over time, we&rsquo;ve refined a process that&rsquo;s clear, intentional, and deeply human. The work we do never feels like a transaction, but rather a shared commitment to each other&rsquo;s growth. Many of our new clients have come through word of mouth from leaders who&rsquo;ve had a meaningful experience with us and shared it with their networks. That trust has been a powerful driver of our growth &mdash; and now, we&rsquo;re excited to expand our reach to serve more social entrepreneurs who see what&rsquo;s possible when the right support is in place.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What do you use MoonClerk for?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We use MoonClerk to invoice our clients and handle recurring payments for our virtual assistant services.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What made you finally decide to use MoonClerk?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We didn&rsquo;t have any major issues with the platforms we used before, they worked fine, but they weren&rsquo;t built with recurring services in mind. What really stood out about MoonClerk is how seamlessly it handles autopay for ongoing payments. We don&rsquo;t have to manually send invoices each month and payments are deducted automatically, which saves time and keeps everything running smoothly.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ability to set specific billing dates for clients and have that built into the flow has been especially helpful. It&rsquo;s simple, efficient, and fits perfectly with the kind of service we offer.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What specific feature do you like most about MoonClerk?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The feature we rely on most is recurring autopay. With multiple clients on different billing schedules, MoonClerk takes care of tracking and charging without us having to manage each payment manually. That&rsquo;s a huge win, it saves time, prevents errors, and keeps everything running smoothly.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It also makes the process easier for clients. They don&rsquo;t have to remember to pay, and we don&rsquo;t have to chase invoices. That creates less friction, fewer missed payments, and more time to focus on the work that matters.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How has MoonClerk helped your business? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since switching to MoonClerk, we&rsquo;ve cut the time spent on monthly payment management by at least 50%. MoonClerk has taken a big administrative load off our plate and helped us scale without adding more complexity. As a result, we&rsquo;ve been able to reach significant financial milestones and sustain steady growth.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Would you recommend MoonClerk to others? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&rsquo;d absolutely recommend MoonClerk to other service-based businesses, especially those working with recurring payments. It&rsquo;s simple, efficient, and built to support growth.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><span>&nbsp;</span>Is there anything else you&rsquo;d like to add?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe that when the right support is in place, people can do their most meaningful work, and we&rsquo;re honored to be part of that process every day.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;</p>","featuredImage":{"alt":null,"title":null,"gatsbyImageData":{"images":{"sources":[],"fallback":{"src":"https://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1761761733-expand-your-capacity-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.png?auto=compress&dpr=0.12&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=7000","srcSet":"https://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1761761733-expand-your-capacity-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.png?auto=compress&dpr=0.03&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=7000 200w,\nhttps://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1761761733-expand-your-capacity-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.png?auto=compress&dpr=0.06&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=7000 400w,\nhttps://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1761761733-expand-your-capacity-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.png?auto=compress&dpr=0.12&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=7000 800w,\nhttps://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1761761733-expand-your-capacity-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.png?auto=compress&dpr=0.23&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=7000 1600w","sizes":"(min-width: 800px) 800px, 100vw"}},"layout":"constrained","placeholder":{"fallback":"data:image/jpeg;base64,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"},"width":800,"height":450}},"id":"DatoCmsPost-R3p7LXTwSD-qg-RId449Dg-en","slug":"how-expand-your-capacity-uses-moonclerk-to-reduce-administrative-billing-costs-by","title":"How EYC VA Agency Simplified Billing and Scaled Efficiently with MoonClerk","date":"2025-10-29","meta":{"firstPublishedAt":"2025-10-29T14:16:16.194-04:00"}},{"author":{"name":"Dodd Caldwell"},"category":{"title":"Customers","slug":"customers"},"content":"<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">John Rabil, founder of <a href=\"http://elapractice.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Entrepreneur Legal Advisors (ELA),</a> talks with us about whey he switched to MoonClerk and how MoonClerk has helped streamline billing for his law practice.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img src=\"https://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1755208074-john-rabil-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments-original.png\" width=\"252\" height=\"234\" /></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Can you tell us a little about ELA? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Entrepreneur Legal Advisors (ELA) is a law firm that provides general counsel services to small businesses and entrepreneurs. We&rsquo;re different than traditional law firms and work on a subscription business model that lets us proactively limit our clients&rsquo; potential risks and develop long term strategic relationships as opposed to one-off, transactional reactive services provided by traditional law firms.<span>&nbsp;</span></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What are your day-to-day responsibilities? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Client management, business development and internal team management.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How did your organization get started? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was working at a firm doing general practice work, and one client was a business, they were telling me that they had been having a bunch of issues involving independent contractors and employees and they&rsquo;d had a hard time getting answers from other lawyers, couldn&rsquo;t figure out how much dealing with these issues would cost them and were simply ignored in a lot of circumstances.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was thinking, &ldquo;There has to be a better way for small businesses to get legal services.&rdquo; Most small businesses either ignore legal completely (exposing themselves to increased risk they could avoid), use an online platform that doesn&rsquo;t provide individualized advice, or are faced with options that are too expensive, inaccessible and intimidating, so they don&rsquo;t do anything.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenge in starting ELA was to find a cost effective, affordable, model where business owners could access legal and advisory services as an option to either online services that don&rsquo;t know their business, then give advice following a one size fits all approach, or to a high-priced attorney, which isn&rsquo;t realistic for small business. Where was the opportunity in that gap that will really benefit small businesses?&nbsp;</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The answer was subscription based legal services focused on being an advisor first and foremost (this is the true advantage of legal services to small businesses). I offered transparency, affordable pricing, and an efficient way for entrepreneurs and small businesses to proactively address potential risks.&nbsp;</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What have been some key factors in growing your business?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The subscription model was a key factor in our growth. It allows for recurring revenue which is a completely different model than the hourly rate, which is the standard in the legal field. We don&rsquo;t have to start from scratch every single month and worry about billable hours. We can focus on protecting our clients and building long term relationships.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What do you use MoonClerk for?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We use MoonClerk for as much of our billing as possible. It allows us to set up automatic monthly payments from clients on our subscription model. MoonClerk efficient, mostly hands-off once a client is onboarded and cuts countless admin hours on our end.&nbsp;</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What problems did you have with your previous payment system?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&rsquo;ve used several other payment systems over the years, but have focused on trying to get as many people as possible moved over to MoonClerk. The other systems are overly complicated (at least for us) and time consuming to set up. Other issues we&rsquo;ve run into have been on the user end - clients having trouble getting set up with what we send them. None of those problems exist with MoonClerk.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those problems slow down everything. They takes additional time on our end, slows down receivables, and frustrates everyone involved.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What made you finally decide to use MoonClerk? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ease of use for the monthly recurring payment options. Simple as that. I didn&rsquo;t see another option that was as easy to get started with and to implement with clients.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What was your experience when getting started with MoonClerk?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has all gone well form the start. MoonClerk&rsquo;s set up process was self-explanatory and while there is a lot of functionality in the system, it&rsquo;s not overly complicated for non-tech savvy users. That was particularly important on our end when trying to find the easiest solution possible to get clients set up on a recurring billing platform, both for us and them.<span>&nbsp; </span></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What specific features do you like most about MoonClerk?</strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We love the automatic monthly recurring billing. And we have options for any kind of billing we are doing, not just recurring. The simplicity of MoonClerk is one of its strengths, especially when there seems to be an endless race to cram as many features as possible into products these days.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How has MoonClerk improved or helped your business? </strong></p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MoonClerk essentially takes the billing and chasing clients for money work off our plate. Most law firms spend considerable time billing and collecting money that&rsquo;s owed to them and they operate on some system where invoices are due within 30 days.

We partner with forward-thinking brands and organizations across industries to help them communicate clearly, build trust, and grow with confidence. <span><a href=\"https://wearepersius.com/portfolio/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Our work</a></span> blends design, technology, and strategy to create lasting impact.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What are each of your day-to-day responsibilities?<br /></strong>We lead the business across creative, strategic, and operational dimensions. That includes overseeing brand direction, guiding client strategy, managing internal workflows, and ensuring our team stays focused on delivering best-in-class work. Every decision we make is centered around quality, alignment, and long-term success, for both our clients and our company.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How did you get started?<br /></strong>Persius was co-founded by myself (Shervine Dolatshahi) and Arash Nazerpour in 2012. From <span><a href=\"https://wearepersius.com/agency/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the beginning</a></span>, our vision was to close the gap between great design and real business results. We set out to build an agency that goes beyond surface-level aesthetics to help brands define who they are, how they show up, and why people should care. That long-term mindset has shaped the way we work, the relationships we build, and the results we deliver. It has positioned Persius as a trusted creative partner across a wide range of industries. We launched Persius in 2012 to close the gap between great design and real business outcomes.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What have been some key factors in growing your business?<br /></strong>A relentless focus on quality and relationships. Our clients stay with us because we consistently deliver, adapt, and lead with clarity. We treat every client's business, team, and audience with the same level of care and dedication as if it were our own. This deep investment in their success creates lasting partnerships. We've never relied on ads or outreach to grow. Every new engagement has come through referral, reputation, or a past client returning. That kind of growth only happens when the work speaks for itself and clients feel genuinely supported.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What do you use MoonClerk for?<br /></strong>MoonClerk powers the financial side of our onboarding and our ongoing client relationships. We use MoonClerk to manage project payments, monthly retainers, and support plan billing. MoonClerk is a quiet but essential part of how we maintain predictable cash flow and create a seamless payment experience.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What problems did you have with your previous payment system?<br /></strong>We previously used traditional invoicing platforms that didn&rsquo;t offer the flexibility or automation we needed. They lacked recurring billing features, made clients jump through hoops, and didn&rsquo;t align with the premium experience we aim to deliver.<strong> </strong>They slowed down decision-making and introduced friction at a critical point in the client journey. Payments were delayed, onboarding was inconsistent, and we spent time chasing logistics that should have been handled automatically.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What made you finally decide to use MoonClerk?<br /></strong>We were looking for a system that was elegant, efficient, and easy to implement with Stripe. MoonClerk delivered on all three. It gave us control over the client payment experience while streamlining internal operations. That made it an easy decision.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What was your experience when getting started with MoonClerk?<br /></strong>It was fast, intuitive, and required zero technical support. We created branded payment forms in minutes, connected Stripe, and rolled it into our client flow immediately. That kind of implementation speed is rare and valuable.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What specific feature do you like most about MoonClerk?<br /></strong>We love that MoonClerk gives us the ability to create clean, branded, and flexible payment forms without any friction. MoonClerk allows us to control how we present pricing, timelines, and commitments while keeping everything aligned with our identity.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MoonClerk simplifies recurring billing for everything from web design projects to ongoing website maintenance plans, improves cash flow predictability, and reduces the administrative overhead tied to client onboarding.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How has MoonClerk improved your business?<br /></strong>With MoonClerk, we&rsquo;ve seen a measurable reduction in onboarding delays and a significant increase in recurring service adoption. On average, project start times are 40% faster. Clients are able to say &ldquo;yes&rdquo; and take action immediately, which keeps momentum high and projects on-track.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Would you recommend MoonClerk to others?<br /></strong>We&rsquo;d recommend MoonClerk without question. If you value client experience and operational efficiency, MoonClerk is a smart move. It&rsquo;s one of the few tools that delivers both form and function in a way that supports growth without complexity.</p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Is there anything else you&rsquo;d like to add?<br /></strong>In a business where trust and speed are everything, tools like MoonClerk let us focus on what matters most. It&rsquo;s played a quiet but important role in helping us scale with integrity.</p>","featuredImage":{"alt":null,"title":null,"gatsbyImageData":{"images":{"sources":[],"fallback":{"src":"https://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1752179248-persius-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.jpg?auto=compress&dpr=0.8&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=1000","srcSet":"https://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1752179248-persius-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.jpg?auto=compress&dpr=0.2&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=1000 200w,\nhttps://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1752179248-persius-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.jpg?auto=compress&dpr=0.4&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=1000 400w,\nhttps://www.datocms-assets.com/31749/1752179248-persius-testimonial-for-moonclerk-recurring-payments.jpg?auto=compress&dpr=0.8&fm=webp%2C%20png&q=90&w=1000 800w","sizes":"(min-width: 800px) 800px, 100vw"}},"layout":"constrained","placeholder":{"fallback":"data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/2wCEAAoHBwgHBgoICAgLCg8VDhUQFRUVDhUVDg0YFxMaGBYTFhUaHysjGh0oHSEWJDUlKC0vMjIyGSI4PTcwPCsxMi8BCgsLBQoKFQoFEC8cFhwvLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vLy8vL//AABEIAAwAGAMBIgACEQEDEQH/xAAYAAACAwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADBAAFBv/EAB0QAAIDAAIDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAECAAMEBRESInH/xAAVAQEBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACAP/EABQRAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD/2gAMAwEAAhEDEQA/AMUL8qZ/EwLvmWkuDF9tKKo6EHeijjz8iEzn0UWr0DJKjix7GSSf/9k="},"width":800,"height":400}},"id":"DatoCmsPost-fZYdvTW2TXKSz0n3IzTtUA-en","slug":"how-persius-used-moonclerk-s-recurring-billing-to-improve-project-start-times-by","title":"How Persius Uses MoonClerk To Improve Project Start Times By 40%","date":"2025-07-10","meta":{"firstPublishedAt":"2025-07-10T16:28:38.903-04:00"}}]}},"pageContext":{"slug":"how-a-crossfit-box-grew-600-in-7-months-after-switching-to-moonclerk","cat":"DatoCmsCategory-6032632-en","id":"DatoCmsPost-5639205-en"}},
