SetMore – Book Appointments Online

ss-setmore
The easier a business makes it for clients to book appointments, the more appointments those clients are likely to make. SetMore is a web-based scheduling system that small business owners in virtually every industry can use to increase the number of scheduled appointments they have on the books each day.

Setting up a SetMore account takes less than 30 seconds. Every account comes with a customer facing booking page, which means you don’t need an existing business website to start scheduling appointments online. Just enter the name of your business, your daily hours, the names and contact information for each of your employees, and select your industry from a drop-down list. You’ll also need to add the name, duration, and cost of any services you offer. Based on this information, SetMore will create a branded booking page that you can link to your website or integrate into a Facebook page or WordPress blog using special plugins and apps.

Customers who book appointments through SetMore will get automatic reminders via email and text, decreasing no-show rates with virtually zero work on your end. The platform also makes it easy for business owners to manage their staffs, offering tools to set weekly schedules and assign specific services to groups or individual employees. This helps to ensure that employees aren’t being overbooked or scheduled to work during their lunch hours or vacation breaks.
