There are several ways you can integrate Flash
Appointments into your business. How do you want your clients to access the
Client Scheduler? Here we outline some options to choose from based on your
resources and expertise.
In any case, your Client Scheduler is available
online at a web address similar to the following example.
For your business, you need to substitute your business identifier for
the number 1 at the end of line. This is the second part of
the account number shown in the upper right corner of the Welcome Screen.
No web site
If you don't have a web site and you aren't ready
to have one built, you should consider the options here.
With a small number of clients that you deal with
on a regular basis, it might be okay just to email the web address to your
clients and ask them to bookmark it in their browser. They can name
the bookmark something obvious like ACME Appointments.
The above solution won't be sufficient for most
businesses that want to attract new customers and make it as easy as possible
for them to schedule online appointments. In this case, if you are not ready
to develop a web site, you can still get the benefits of Flash Appointments.
First, register a domain name for your business. Then have traffic
redirected to the Client Scheduler web address for your account. This
essentially gives you a web site with single page, the Flash Appointments
Client Scheduler configured for your business.
There are many companies that do domain name
registration and URL redirection. Just do an internet search
to find one.
Add a link to your web site
To add basic integration to your site, you will want to add a link similar to the following:
Placing the link in a prominent position on your
web site will generate the most online appointments for your business. See
our Tips for making the most of that link.
Seamlessly integrate into your web site
Many of our customers have a web site developer
that can be more creative and provide truly integrated access to the Client
Scheduler. We have created a mock up to show a sample of what can be done.
The page is not fully a functional web page. It is only intended to illustrate
one possible way to integrate. You can View - Source on this example to get
ideas of your own.
The example shows a page that wraps the Client
Scheduler for our demo Whole Hair Salon. The demo is a working demo. Feel free
to schedule test appointments. See Web Page Integration Sample.
