How do I keep clients informed about appointments?

What the client sees: after sending a request on your public page, a final screen says the request was sent and shows a management link for cancelling or rescheduling. Nothing is sent by email, SMS or any messaging app, so the client should save that link.

What your team sees: every new request appears in the bookings list as pending. Open the list at fixed times, confirm or reject each request and, straight afterwards, tell the client by phone or message. A one-line message with date, time and address is enough.

Reminders are a manual job. The evening before, open the day’s list in the calendar and contact the clients who need a nudge. You can export the bookings list as CSV, XML or PDF to work from. Keep phone numbers in the manual client list, since the public form does not collect them.

Changes work the same way: if you move or cancel a booking in the panel, the client is not told, so contact them. For bookings you create yourself, and for sessions of a recurring series, copy the management link and send it to the client. A short note on your own website, such as “we confirm every request by phone within the day”, sets the expectation without any extra tool.
