Service-as-Software: A Better Way to Work With Technology

October is a turning point in the year. Deadlines pile up, budgets need to be finalized, and everyone is preparing for the rush of the holiday season. It’s a busy month that can leave even the most organized professionals feeling stretched thin. Additionally, many of us are juggling multiple software platforms, including CRMs, marketing tools, scheduling apps, and inbox managers.

The irony? The very tools designed to simplify your life can often make things more complicated. Instead of lightening the load, they leave you clicking through endless menus, watching tutorial videos, or searching for answers in help forums. This “software fatigue” is real, and it shows up most when you can least afford to slow down.

The traditional SaaS model, Software-as-a-Service, has powered businesses for decades. It delivers powerful tools and platforms, but it often stops short of what teams really need. You get access to great features, yet you are left on your own to figure out how to maximize results. Without guidance, support, or strategy, even the most advanced software can become overwhelming. In other words, a software product is only as effective as the people and service behind it.

At Levitate, we believe this model is outdated. We are breaking the mold with something new: Service-as-Software. This approach transforms Levitate into more than a marketing tool. It makes us a true partner in your success. Instead of leaving you to navigate software alone, we combine innovative technology with a team of specialists who walk alongside you every step of the way.

Software Alone Isn’t Enough

Many businesses invest in software that promises efficiency, only to find it creates more work. You log in, search for tutorials, and hope you are using the features correctly. That cycle leads to software fatigue, especially during hectic seasons like October when time is already scarce.

Levitate solves this problem with a service-first model. We don’t just hand you a login and expect you to figure things out. From the moment you start with us, you are paired with real people who are invested in your goals.

How Service-as-Software Works at Levitate

When we say Service-as-Software, we mean it. Every Levitate customer is supported by real people whose job is to make sure you succeed with the platform. Here is what that looks like in practice:

• Implementation Team
  Getting started with new technology can feel overwhelming, especially when you are busy running your business. Our implementation specialists make onboarding smooth and stress-free. They handle the technical details like connecting your systems, importing contacts, and ensuring everything is properly set up. Their goal is to take the burden off your plate so that you are ready to dive into Levitate without the usual headaches that come with new technology.
• Success Team
  Once your account is set up, you are paired with a dedicated Success Specialist who becomes an extension of your team and serves as your go-to marketing expert. They are the ones who help you uncover the real value of Levitate. By learning about your goals and staying in regular contact through strategy calls, they guide you on how to get the best results. Your Success Specialist helps you build communication plans, tailor campaigns, and adapt your outreach to the season or business priorities. Whether you are preparing year-end donor appeals, holiday appreciation messages, or new client outreach, your Success Specialist is there to brainstorm, advise, and provide best practices. They are your go-to resource for turning Levitate’s features into meaningful results.
• Support Team
  Questions and roadblocks don’t always appear at convenient times. That is why our award-winning support team is available to provide quick, clear answers whenever you need them. They resolve issues efficiently so you can stay focused on what matters most: building relationships.

Together, these services mean Levitate is not just another piece of software. It is a true marketing partner that adapts to your business, scales with your needs, and keeps you focused on relationships instead of logistics.

Award-Winning Service

Our commitment to putting service first is not just meaningful to our customers, it is also being recognized in the SaaS industry. This year, Levitate earned the SaaS Award for Best SaaS Product for Small Business / SMEs. In announcing the award, The Cloud Awards CEO shared why Levitate’s service-first model is resonating with so many organizations:

This award validates what our customers experience every day: Levitate is built around people, not just products.

Why This Matters in October

October is a pivotal month for most organizations. It is when momentum builds, budgets are set, and planning for the new year begins. It is also when software fatigue tends to peak. The last thing you need during this season is another platform that adds to your workload.

Levitate ensures you are supported during this critical time. Instead of spending hours figuring out features, you have a Success Specialist and strategy experts helping you put them to work. By the end of the year, you will feel confident knowing your outreach is consistent, your relationships are nurtured, and your business is ready for what comes next.
