Frequently Asked Questions
Does YouCanBookMe support businesses with multiple locations? Can customers choose?
You’ve got four salon locations? No problem! When you use YouCanBookMe’s free online booking system for salons, you can customize the types of appointments you offer and have clients book at their preferred location. And with automated SMS and email reminders that contain all the important appointment details—like addresses—you’ll reduce your number of no-shows (and customers who end up at the wrong location).
Are my clients able to book with the specific stylist they’d like?
Yes, YouCanBookMe is the best scheduling app for the whole salon, as well as individual stylists, aestheticians, tattoo artists and, well, you get the idea. It’s simple and straightforward to create a booking page for each team member or list them all on one page. Your customers can easily pick the person they had in mind, or browse who else is available.
What can I do to reduce no-shows for my salon?
There are a few ways you can tackle this super common problem. You can customize your booking form so that customers have to check off that they agree to your policies—like paying a fee if they don’t show up or paying a deposit upfront—when they book their appointment.
You can also set up automated and personalized customer communications via email and SMS reminders to ensure clients know exactly when and where to be for upcoming appointments.
My salon offers a wide range of services. Can I customize my booking page so that clients can book the right service?
Of course! Using YouCanBookMe’s salon booking software, you can add different appointment types to your booking page. Whether you’re a stylist who offers cuts, colors and bang trims or a spa offering facials, manicures and pedicures, you can add whatever services make the most sense for your business.
How can I collect important information from clients to help me better prepare for appointments?
That’s where YouCanBookMe’s customizable booking form comes in. You can easily collect valuable information from your customers when they book or request an appointment by adding extra fields to the booking form. Add specific questions to the form that’ll help you get ready, as well as give your customers a chance to tell you how they found you, what they’d like to get from their appointment and how you can get in touch with them.
