Led by our team of experts, Senior Product Experience Manager, Marylee Bussard, Onboarding Specialist, Ronaldo Tomizawa, and Product Training Specialist, Caitlyn Drake, we’ll simplify the learning curve and ensure you’re equipped with the knowledge you need to succeed.  

Business policy overview

Establishing clear business policies is the foundation of smooth, predictable operations. Your staff should be equipped with a set of guiding questions that help them make consistent decisions throughout the day. For example:

• Does this situation follow our scheduling rules?
• Is the client eligible for this service?
• Does this action align with our cancellation or payment policies?

When everyone understands the “why” behind your procedures, your team can provide a unified client experience, reduce internal confusion, and handle unexpected situations with confidence. A strong policy overview ensures that both new and experienced staff members stay aligned with the standards that uphold your brand.

Setting booking parameters

Booking parameters are essential for managing time, staff availability, and client flow.

Establishing minimum and maximum booking times helps you prevent scheduling gaps and ensures that services are offered at realistic, manageable intervals. Minimum booking times keep clients from scheduling too close to class or appointment start times, while maximum booking windows prevent clients from booking too far in advance.

These settings give your business more control over demand, help staff plan better, and create a more seamless booking process for clients.

Cancellation and no-show policies

Effective cancellation and no-show policies help protect your team’s time and keep your schedule running smoothly. Whether you require a certain number of hours’ notice or charge a penalty for missed appointments, the key is clarity and consistency.

Automated reminders, confirmation messages, and clear explanations within your booking system help reduce the likelihood of last-minute cancellations. With clearly defined rules, your business can maintain higher attendance rates and operate with fewer disruptions.

Security settings

Proper security settings safeguard your business from unauthorized access and protect sensitive client information. Enabling automatic logout after periods of inactivity helps prevent accidental misuse on shared devices. Additional access control settings (such as permission levels, two-step authentication, and IP restrictions) can further reinforce your digital safety.

These measures ensure compliance, protect staff accounts, and maintain client trust.

Client ID generation

Generating unique client IDs streamlines check-ins, attendance tracking, and retail purchases. With the ability to integrate barcode scanners or mobile apps, your staff can identify clients quickly and accurately.

Unique IDs also help maintain clean client records, prevent duplication, and improve reporting accuracy. By establishing a reliable ID generation system, your business creates a more efficient, tech-enabled experience for both staff and clients.
