📅 Bookings, Reminders and Getting Paid on Time

How to stop double-booking, reduce no-shows with deposits and reminders, and collect the balance without chasing.

Booking system

Even a shared calendar beats memory. Better: a booking page where customers pick a slot and pay the deposit — reminders go out automatically and no-shows collapse.

Reminders

24 hours and 1 hour before. By WhatsApp or email. Automatic if you can.

The balance

Invoice at completion with bank details and a card link; label who owes; follow up on day 3 and day 7. Never finish a job without the invoice sent.

Homework

Set up a calendar today. Plan your booking page (Ezy Booking on the Bookings plan does all of this).
