Online Booking updates to optimize efficiency

Our Online Booking feature rolled out three big updates in the first quarter of 2024. By setting your service area, you can ensure customer bookings are always within reachable distances, reducing travel time and costs. 

We’ve added new ways to customize how customers book your services to enhance their experience. With the ability to set fixed start times for services, you and your customers benefit from flexibility and convenience. Choose to allow customers to select from a range of time slots or set fixed start times for your services. This level of customization not only improves operational efficiency but also increases customer satisfaction.

In addition to refining the booking experience, we’ve also made it possible to unlock deeper insights into the source of your bookings. Now, you can track your booking links across different marketing channels to identify which strategies are most effective in generating jobs. This data-driven approach allows you to optimize your marketing efforts, ensuring you’re leveraging channels that offer the highest return on investment. 

Take your day-to-day operations to the next level

We love bringing you updates that improve the quality of your day-to-day routine, and these three do just that. Revolutionize your business operations with improvements that pack a punch.
