Set up your studio

Configure your profile, understand the workspace, and prepare Qubold for your first client.

What you’ll achieve

A ready-to-use studio with the right identity, preferences, and first workflow in place.

01

Complete your studio profile

Your studio details appear across client-facing experiences, so start by making them recognisable and trustworthy.

  1. 1

    Open Settings

    From the dashboard, choose Settings and open Profile Information.

  2. 2

    Add your identity

    Enter the studio name, your name, website, profile image, and a short description.

  3. 3

    Choose your currency

    Set the currency you normally quote clients in. It will be used for packages, invoices, and payment screens.

  4. 4

    Review notifications

    Choose the activity you want Qubold to surface so important client actions do not get missed.

Studio tips
  • Use the same studio name and avatar your clients already recognise.
  • Set currency before creating packages or invoices.

02

Learn the dashboard

The overview is your daily starting point for recent events, work in progress, storage, and client activity.

  1. 1

    Scan the overview

    Use the summary cards to understand current events, clients, selections, and storage at a glance.

  2. 2

    Use the left navigation

    Move between client management, production, delivery, business tools, and studio settings.

  3. 3

    Watch recent activity

    Open the most relevant record directly instead of searching through every section.

  4. 4

    Switch workspaces when needed

    If you belong to more than one studio, use the workspace switcher before starting work.

03

Run your first client workflow

A simple first run helps you understand how records stay connected from enquiry to delivery.

  3. 3

    Upload a small test set

    Open the client view

    Preview the public experience before sharing it with your client.

Studio tips
  • Use a test client with an email you can access while learning the workflow.
