Automate Your Lesson Schedule

Stop working harder, and start working smarter!

Over the many years of my coaching career, I have spent countless hours e-mailing students with my schedule, setting up lessons, re-scheduling lessons, canceling lessons, swapping lessons, and reminding students of their lessons.  Does this sound familiar to you?  I am not surprised one bit!

About 6 years ago I finally had enough after I had a wave of last minute cancellations and people calling me at all hours of the day and night to change their schedule.  I knew there had to be a solution out there and I found one.  It cost me $10 per month and let my clients register for an account where they would schedule lessons and cancel them based on my pre-set rules.  I had my cancellation policies on the site as well as my avaliable hours and many other things.  This allowed my students to schedule, cancel, and change lesson time at their convenience from the comfort of their home.

The first system I used for a little over 2 years until I found an even better system that accepted payments and had all the bells and whistles.  It wasn’t an easy choice picking the right new system, but after carefully considering the pros and cons of over 20 different booking systems I had found THE ONE.  I must have spent a good month writing down all the features of each system and ended up making a grid with each system and which features they offered.  The winner in the end was BOOKEO.

BOOKEO has many useful options at a low cost.  I know you may be worried about having a monthly or annual commitment, but I want you to think about it this way…how many hours per month do you spend communicating with your clients for your schedule?  How many unpaid lessons or last minute cancelations have lowered your income?  With this system, you can set it up to still charge for the lesson if your client cancels the lesson within 24h of the scheduled lesson.

This system will save you time, increase your revenue, and offers the following features and more!

 

  • embedding in your own web site
  • online payments and deposits
  • workshops and group classes
  • gift vouchers, prepaid packages
  • GroupOn / LivingSocial integration
  • memberships
  • marketing campaigns
  • 2-way sync with Google Calendar

If you are an Apple product user, you will be happy to hear that your iCal will be updated every time a new lesson is scheduled!  It will take some time to set it all up, but once it is up you will have more hours that you can spend with your loved ones, free time, or to EARN MORE!
