Set up your services
Services are what clients book. The setup wizard created at least one starter service - now make sure names, prices, and lengths match what you offer in real life.
Open Appointments → Catalog → Services in the side menu.
Review your first service
Click the service name to open it. On the General tab, check:
- Name - clear and specific, like “Portrait Session” or “Initial consultation”.
- Short description - a short explanation a new client can understand during booking.
- Duration type - Fixed for one set length, or Flexible if the client picks within a range.
- Duration - hours and minutes.
- Price - the amount clients see.
Tap Save when you are done.
Other tabs on the same screen (fields, add-ons, staff, payments, and more) can wait. Use them when you need extras on that one service.
Add another service
Click Add New to create a service. You can start blank or pick from a profession template, then edit until it fits you.
You need at least one service for clients to book. Add more as your business grows.
Optional refinements
These are not required on day one:
- Add-ons under Catalog → Add-ons - extras clients can add during booking.
- Fields under Catalog → Fields - questions every booking should answer.
Leave discounts, packages, and gift cards for later unless you already sell them.
For the full Catalog guide - including every service tab, staff, payments rules, and Solo features - see Catalog and Services.
Tips for new owners
- Start with your most popular offering only; add the rest later.
- Match prices to what you quote in person - surprises at checkout lose trust.
- Keep descriptions short; you can say more on your website pages.
