Get Started with Book My Time on The Leap in Just a Few Steps!
You’re all set to start booking your time with clients on The Leap! Here’s a quick and simple guide to help you get started and manage your calendar smoothly.
Step 1: Set Your Availability
Decide when you’re available to take bookings, so clients only book you during times that work for you.
- Set Your Time Slots: Go to Calendar on the left-side menu, then select Availability. Edit your available time slots to make sure clients only book sessions when you’re ready.
- Block Off Busy Days: If you have holidays, personal time, or other commitments, you can block those dates to avoid any bookings. Head to Calendar > Availability > Blocked Dates and add any dates you’re unavailable.
Note: The Leap has fixed settings for the booking notice (minimum time before a session that clients can book) and the booking horizon (how far in the future they can book), so you won’t need to worry about changing these!
Step 2: Publish Your Book My Time Service
Now that you’ve set up your availability, it’s time to create a booking page to showcase your services.
- Create Your Booking Page: Go to Products on the left menu, click + Add Product, then select Book My Time. Enter the requested info, and The Leap’s AI will help generate a page that’s appealing to clients.
- Choose Your Booking Tool: You can use The Leap’s built-in booking tool, or if you already have a favorite booking tool, link to it by adding the URL on your Book My Time product page.
- Set Your Pricing: Decide on a price for each session. You can offer it as a free Lead Magnet, set a fixed price, or let clients pay what they want. (Remember, fixed payments are in USD, and you’ll need to connect to Stripe to accept payments.)
- Customize Your Store Card: This is the first thing clients see when browsing your store, so make it eye-catching! Go to Products > select your Book My Time product, scroll down to Store card, and add a teaser and thumbnail image.
- Preview Your Booking Page: To see what clients will experience, go to Product landing page on your Book My Time product and click View Page.
Make sure to set your booking page to Live by changing the “Hidden” setting to “Live” at the top. This way, clients can find and book your sessions right away!
Step 3: Manage Your Bookings
Once clients start booking sessions, you’ll want to keep track of upcoming events and manage details.
- Check New Bookings: You’ll get an email notification every time a client books, showing the date, time, and other important details.
- Communicate with Clients: After a booking is confirmed, reach out to your client to confirm the meeting location. You can use Google Meet for video calls, or share your business phone number if you prefer.
- View All Events: Go to Calendar > Events to see a list of all your upcoming and past bookings.
And that’s it! You’re ready to start sharing your time with clients on The Leap. Just follow these steps, and soon you’ll have your bookings organized, your availability set, and your clients ready to connect.
