Getting started with your booking system
From signup to first confirmed booking — the sequence we walk every new customer through on the setup call.
- 1Create your account and pick your industry template.
- 2Add at least one service with duration and price.
- 3Connect Google Calendar or Outlook so availability stays accurate.
- 4Share your booking link or embed the widget on your website.
- 5Book a test appointment yourself to verify confirmations and reminders.
Most teams are live within one afternoon. The mistake we see repeatedly is skipping the test booking — you want to experience exactly what your customer sees before you put the link on Instagram.
Start with one service and one staff member. You can add complexity later; a booking page with 12 services and 4 staff on day one confuses customers and slows you down.
Your booking URL lives at bookingservice.ai/book/your-slug. Customize the slug in Settings → Booking page. Short, memorable slugs get shared more — "studio-mara" beats "mara-s-wellness-center-berlin-2026".
