Appointments Step 2: Creating Service Types

Article 2/3

A service type is the offering you wish to make available for booking. This article will cover:

1. Creating a service type
2. Sharing a dedicated link to book a service type

Once you are done with this article, head over to Appointments Step 3: Setting Availability

Step 1

1. Navigate to Products & Services > Appointment Service Types.
2. Click the Yellow "+" button in the top right-hand corner

Note: You must create a service type for each interval someone can book. E.g., If someone can book a sauna for 15mins and for 30mins, then you must create 2 service types, one for each interval.

Step 2 - Enter a name and a category

1. You can create a category by typing and then clicking Create

Note: Appointment categories are mutually exclusive from Class categories

Enter additional information about the Service Type

2. Enter a service provider: A service provider is either a Room or a Person
3. If your facility is set up in a way where you restrict the number of people that can book a room, the room MUST be the service provider. For example, if your room has a sauna and a cold plunge, that room must be the service provider so that if someone has booked the cold plunge, the sauna is no longer available at that time
4. You may enter a pay rate: this is the % the instructor receives from the price of the service type

5. If the provider is a person that works at multiple locations, make sure to add their location - if they offer the service at multiple locations, their name should be added as a new row for each location

   Add the max # of people that can book the service type at the same time

Note: If you list 10 trainers and each has a max of 1, that means all 10 trainers could have a client at the same time.

Step 3 - Add settings for the service type

You may add a buffer before and/or after the appointment. This is good if you need to clean something or want to avoid back-to-back appointments

Step 4 - Upload a picture!

The picture is visible to clients and helps improve the look of your website

Step 5 - Publish and save

1. Make sure to toggle off "Hidden on Profile" so clients can see and book it. If you don't want the general public booking appointments, you can toggle it off
2. If you want people to book a specific trainer- toggle off the setting. If you don't want people to know who they are training with- toggle it on

Step 6 - Share a link to a specific appointment

1. Go to Schedule & Programming > Availability
2. Click "Scheduling Links"
3. Choose the appropriate info, which will create a dedicated link

• Level: If you want everything to be available, choose the studio, otherwise choose a specific service provider
• Next, choose the location, then the appointment category, and finally service type
• Click the "Test" button to see how the link will look to a client
• Then click copy and go share it!
