Responding to Appointments / Messages

Once customers have booked an appointment with you, it's important to be responsive. This sets the tone for a great experience. 

Log into your Dashboard and check emails regularly, so that you can respond to all appointments and messages. This is a great time to communicate with your customers, set expectations, and ask important questions. The more engagement you have with a customer early on, the more likely they are to show up for their appointments and have a good experience.

Being prepared for a customer when they show up to an appointment is the #1 factor in a positive customer experience and will lead to increased repeat business.
