This important distinction ensures accuracy and consistency within your established system while encouraging self-booking. By leveraging your platform, we streamline the scheduling process, allowing your team to focus on delivering exceptional customer service. Our commitment is to support your operations efficiently and professionally, ensuring a smooth experience for both your staff and clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get Answers to Common Questions About Our Scheduling & Reservation Services

Yes, our Customer Service Professionals are available 24/7 to assist your customers with their scheduling needs, ensuring seamless service at all times.

When scheduling and reservations are handled in-house, costs are fixed, meaning that even during off-seasons, slow months, or holidays, the staff responsible for scheduling still needs to be paid. This fixed cost can reduce company profits during slower periods.

Our pricing is variable and adjusts with our clients’ needs and usage. When demand for our services increases, we scale to meet it. When needs decrease, we accommodate accordingly. Variable pricing keeps overhead low while still providing the benefits of professional Scheduling and Reservation Services.

We offer a variety of delivery options that can be customized to fit your business needs. General messaging is typically included as part of a scheduling account. We deliver general messages through multiple methods and channels, including:

    • Hold for call-in or retrieval through our included client web portal
    • Call-out (cell phone, home phone, etc.)
    • Email each as taken/Email summary
    • Text messaging options
    • Fax each as taken/Fax summary
    • Voice mailbox
    • File download or export

We can combine and customize delivery options to fit any business model.
