We are seeing many businesses take their appointments and classes online, using video conferencing platforms. There are several solutions for setting up a video meeting with a client or sharing a link to an online video with your class roster.Β
Sharing a Video Link with your Class
To share a Zoom or Google Hangout link with your class, you can do that by going through the class roster directly. You'll then see the option to email all the clients on the roster like this. πΒ
If you have an upcoming appointment with a client and you'd like to email them a link for a video chat or share a link to a video, you can email them by going directly to their client profile and clicking on their email address. π
Updating Your Custom Message for Client Email Notifications
If you are going to give online classes/appointments a try, it may be helpful to update the custom message that clients see in their booking confirmation emails and email reminders. This is a great way to re-confirm with clients that you are online and expect an email soon with the video link for their class or appointment.
Online Payments and Collecting Credit Cards to Hold Appointments/Classes
If you aren't already, you can start collecting client payments online. Whether you're getting those super-low processing rates using Schedulicity Pay, or Stripe, you can set up your services/classes/workshops, to require clients to pay in full at the time of booking, pay a deposit, or enter credit card info to hold the appointment/class.
