6 Reasons to Switch to Acuity Scheduling
Everything You Should Consider
You put a lot into your business. And when it comes to scheduling software, you need it to do the same. But switching software—or making the big move from pen and paper—comes with many things to consider.
Here are six reasons why you should choose Acuity Scheduling.
1. You believe no-shows are a no-go
Appointments are the core of your business. So when a client doesn’t show up as planned, things can get off track real fast. After all, the work doesn’t start at the appointment. Think of all the mental and physical prep gone to waste when a no-show happens.The good news: Acuity Scheduling helps you protect your time with automated reminder emails and texts. You can even customize each one for any appointment type. Appointment reminders not only protect your business—they also give your clients an opportunity to cancel or reschedule ahead of time. By keeping an open line of communication, you’ll build trust with your clients, too.
2. You can team up with everyone
Managing calendars and appointments can take a lot out of you. When your employees are slowed down by admin work, they can’t fully dedicate themselves to making the best experience possible. Worst case scenario? Your employees don’t have the info they need to truly meet clients’ needs.
Keep your team organized with easy-to-use scheduling software, like Acuity Scheduling. Custom intake forms help them cater to clients’ needs, while client management tools keep everyone on the same page. With more focus on the service, your team—and your clients—will feel better than ever.
3. You want integrated payments
Payments keep the lights on, but managing them shouldn’t be a pain. You deserve to get paid seamlessly without any headaches. One way to stay on top of everything? Keep all your payments in one place.
With Acuity Scheduling, you can manage your payments and invoices in one place. But it doesn’t stop there. By integrating with a payment processor, your clients can securely pay online from any device. Deposits, tips, credit card vaulting, you name it—everything is just a few clicks away. Integrated payments can also help you reduce no-shows with upfront deposits and no-show fees.
4. You want to set the schedule straight
Healthy boundaries are important, especially when it comes to work hours. But nobody has time for endless back-and-forth. That’s why it’s crucial to have an easy way to customize how your schedule looks to clients—something not all schedule platforms (or pen and paper) can offer.
Acuity Scheduling helps you streamline your time and earn on your terms. With advanced appointment limits and controls, you can set your hours for different appointment types. Your clients can then see your availability in a clear calendar view—for every time zone and location. Playing by your book has never been easier.
5. You want a seamless booking experience
Your website (and online presence) is everything. Why not let clients book directly on it? By adding a booking feature to your website, clients can book the moment they discover you—making it more likely to happen.
Adding Acuity Scheduling to your website is easy. No code needed. Choose from an embedded scheduler, a booking button, or a booking bar. Any option will lead clients to your scheduler—right from the source. That way, you can stay connected from the start.
6. You want more time for what matters
You’re here because you love to connect with people. Being bogged down in admin work will only stand in your way. Juggling bookings, phone calls, and employee training by yourself is a time-sinking nightmare.
Acuity Scheduling’s automation and organization tools will give you time back to do what you love—stress-free. Don’t worry about the numbers. Just focus on your business, and Acuity Scheduling will handle the rest.
