Consulting and freelancers

Online scheduling for consultants and freelancers

Make booking meetings and sessions simpler, with no endless exchange of messages.

For a consultant or freelancer, every message asking “when are you free?” takes time away from your work. 4appointments gives you a booking page to send to clients: they see your free times, choose a session and request a booking. You can import busy blocks from another calendar through an ICS link, so you don’t offer times when you are already busy.

Why consultants pick 4appointments

A personal booking page
Share a single link. The client chooses the session and a free time, with no back-and-forth messages.
External calendar via ICS
Subscribe to another calendar’s ICS link (https) and its busy events start blocking times. It is read about every 15 minutes, in one direction only.
Sessions with duration and price
Set each type of session with its duration and price, and a pause after each booking with “Buffer (min)”.
Minimum and maximum notice
Choose how far ahead clients may book, at the earliest and at the latest (by default 120 minutes and 60 days).

FAQ: consulting and freelancers

Can I give clients just one booking link?

Yes. You have one link to your booking page, which you can share by email, in your signature or on social media. The client chooses among your free times.

Does it connect to my calendar?

In part. You can subscribe to another calendar’s ICS link to import busy blocks, and export your 4appointments calendar through an ICS link. There is no two-way connection with Google or Outlook.

Can I charge for sessions?

Not through 4appointments: online payment for bookings is not available on the current plans. Payment is up to you, outside the platform, using the methods you already use.

Are bookings confirmed straight away?

No. Each request arrives as pending and holds the slot until you confirm it manually, so you can accept only what suits you.

Want to stop wasting time arranging meetings?

Set up your services and availability, then share the link to your booking page.
