Salon Software
Easy booking management software for your salon allowing your clients to book directly from your website or QR code at your salon.
Why should you use salon booking software?
You have started a salon for a reason. You want to make people shine again like they never did before with a new haircut, nails, or a beauty treatment. The core is to make people feel more relaxed as they walk out of your salon than when they first entered. Focusing on what you are good at will make your work pleasant.
Handling all the side stuff, such as arranging bookings, rescheduling appointments, and ensuring you have enough inventory, might sound uninteresting. If you want to reduce the amount of time you spend on all the things that surround your work but are not the actual work, a salon booking system can come in handy.
“Get up to 12% more bookings by using an online booking page ”
When should you use salon appointment software?
As soon as you are a few months in, recurring clients will arise, and the days will get busy with appointments.
Salon appointment software will help prevent those things from happening. Salon software will help you by taking ownership of your calendar and keeping you informed about your inventory.
It will even give more insights into your clients’ needs so you can serve them more effectively. Good salon management software shows the history of your clients’ activity in your salon and will suggest new appointments for the future. By doing so, there will be an increase in sales and revenue!
“Make life stress-free for both you and your clients ”
Am I reliant on salon software?
A short answer to this question: No. Proper salon scheduling software should function as a digital employee that takes care of the tasks you don’t want to be busy with. Therefore, the most important thing to consider when choosing a booking system for your salon is the convenience of the software. As soon as things look complicated or feel annoying in use, the temptation of manually handling your bookings gets big, and you will fall back into old patterns.
“Vev is the only free tool that gives you all the features you need to run a salon ”
What to consider when choosing salon booking software?
As mentioned before, the most important thing to consider is the convenience of a system. Besides that, there are other things to think about. The first topic that comes to mind is price. Most salon software works with multiple pricing models. Some booking management software works with a monthly fee. Other systems will take a commission on all the bookings generated via the app that a salon system provides.
Vev is one booking platform with a free version that does everything you want it to do. Once your salon scales, the salon booking software will start charging money for things such as organizing appointments of multiple colleagues and having an increasing inventory.
What's more, a booking system allows your clients to make a booking directly through a website or app. It is best to check with your existing clients if they see the added benefit of making an appointment via your booking system. If not, your clients will send you text messages and call you to make appointments, which can be very distracting while you're busy helping a client.
What are the benefits of using salon software?
Vev's salon management software allows you to run your salon more efficiently. You can be stress-free now that clients can place their bookings how they want through the salon software. All your clients will benefit from it, and you can focus on the treatments without being bothered by incoming text messages and phone calls.
Second, you will be guaranteed a break with salon software. You've probably skipped lunch several times due to delayed appointments or clients arriving slightly late. Using software with “smart breaks” can guarantee you have lunch every day that your salon is open..! You are just a few buttons away from telling your clients that appointments can be scheduled 10 minutes later than planned.
Saving hours per week from manually scheduling all the appointments will provide more time to spend with your clients. Subsequently, there will be an increase in revenue. In other words, you can earn more, work more efficiently, and enjoy more free time!
In summary, Vev's salon software allows you to:
- Run your salon more efficiently and earn more in less time.
- Never miss lunch by using smart breaks.
- Get more time to focus on your clients without getting distracted by other clients trying to plan appointments.
- Keep in mind all the benefits of a salon booking app that you want to enjoy, and pick a system that fits your needs.
- Use a booking system properly and save time as it will function as a digital employee.
- Shorten the period between bookings for your clients by sending reminders and messages to clients that need a booking again.
- A free built-in CRM
