We are thrilled to announce a long-awaited new feature: now you can upgrade your Mozello website or online store with a flexible service booking system!

It will significantly ease the daily routine for service providers, consultants, and rental businesses. By automating the acceptance of bookings, you will be able to focus on what truly matters instead of micromanagement.

The best news: all of this is available without astronomical costs and separate, complex, or restrictive paid plans that are often found on other platforms.

Read on and find out everything you need to know about the new system.

Manual Time Booking and Coordination Limits You

If you provide services, your daily life often consists not only of your core work but also of chaotic communication. Coordinating times turns into endless email or WhatsApp conversations, forcing you to answer calls and messages even late in the evening, sacrificing your rest.

Such a manual approach creates additional problems. Notepads and calendars lead to human errors and double bookings. Even greater financial losses are caused by "empty appointments" when a customer forgets to show up due to a missing reminder or non-existent prepayment.

Let us be honest, you started your operation to do what you are good at, not to work as an administrator for yourself. While you are playing "calendar Tetris", you are not working in your profession. This routine drains your energy and turns you into a hostage of the calendar. Instead, time should be devoted to clients, providing excellent services, and ideas on how to purposefully grow a business.

Booking System: Automated Digital Assistant

The new Mozello booking system is created exactly to do this monotonous work for you. It is much more than a simple visual calendar; it is a smart and comprehensive system that works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The customer independently views your available times and books an appointment at their convenience without your involvement.

Who is this booking system suitable for?

This system will automate daily processes, allowing you to simplify or completely get rid of administrative details and focus much more purposefully on what is most important.

The system is designed to adapt to a wide variety of service models. Here are some of the most popular ways to use it:

• Specialist visits and consultations: Allow your clients to independently view available times and book an appointment with a manicurist, hairdresser, therapist, consultant, or any other industry professional without unnecessary correspondence and manual work.
• Accommodation and venue rental: An ideal solution for owners of guesthouses, holiday homes, saunas, or conference halls. Visitors can conveniently choose and book the desired dates for their rest or work.
• Table reservations in restaurants and cafes: Smoothly and without misunderstandings accept reservations, starting from dinners for two and ending with larger celebrations and banquets.
• Equipment and gear rental: Perfectly suited for renting out boats, SUP boards, bicycles, skis, or any other equipment for specific time periods.
• Events and unique experiences: Conveniently register participants for various events, such as hikes, creative masterclasses, group workouts, and other types of experiences.
• Any other type of reservations: The structure of the system is so flexible and functional that you will be able to freely adapt it to almost any unique offer or service!

Everything You Need to Fully Automate Booking Processes

The system offers a flexible and wide range of features that will adapt exactly to your needs:

• Flexible calendars and working hours: Specify your workdays and hours in detail. The system allows you to manage multiple calendars and independently takes into account the holidays you have marked.
• Smart resource management: Assign specific resources to bookings (employees, rooms, rental equipment, or something else). The system will automatically monitor so that the selected resource is not booked twice at the same time.
• Complete control over time: Set fixed or completely free time intervals, as well as define the minimum and maximum booking duration. Time buffers are especially useful; specify the necessary break between visits for preparation work and set how far in advance clients can apply.
• Price calculation and reminders: The system can automatically calculate the final amount of the service and send reminders to customers about the upcoming visit, thereby significantly reducing the risk of forgetfulness and no-shows.
• Connection with application forms: You can connect bookings with application forms on your website. The customer not only chooses the service and time but in one fluid step can describe their need, leave comments, or indicate special wishes.
• Accept immediate payment: You can create a service as a product in your online store. The customer chooses the desired time, adds the service to the cart, and immediately pays in their preferred way. This is a great solution to prevent the risk of no-shows and guarantee financial security even before the service is provided.

Let us look at a real example:

Imagine a manicurist, Anna, who receives clients in her salon. It is important for Anna to maintain order and provide excellent service, so she uses the new booking system on her Mozello website.

In the system, she sets her working hours (from Tuesday to Saturday, 09:00 to 18:00) and indicates herself as the bookable "resource". Next, Anna adds services: "Classic manicure" (1 hour) and "Gel nail extension" (2 hours).

To unhurriedly prepare the workspace for the next visitor, she sets a 20-minute "time buffer". This means the system will automatically hold this pause between bookings.

On the website, Anna places an application form connected to the booking system. There, the customer chooses the service, finds an available time, and marks whether previous gel removal will be necessary. As soon as the customer applies, Anna receives a new appointment email, and a day before the visit, an automatic reminder is sent to the customer. Anna's calendar fills up by itself, is easily overviewed, and she can focus 100 percent on her work.

Excellent Price and Performance Ratio Without Hidden Costs

One of the biggest problems with independent booking systems is their high costs. Often, entrepreneurs have to pay tens or even hundreds of euros per month just for the calendar itself, additionally covering the expenses for website maintenance, domains, and eCommerce tools.

With us, everything is different. The new booking system is available in all our plans, but it will be available without any limitations in the new Mozello Premium Pro plan, offering incomparably the best price and performance ratio on the market.

Within one fixed and reasonable monthly fee, you get everything you need to work comfortably and purposefully grow a business online: a reliable platform for website or online store creation, powerful eCommerce features, a professional domain name, and now, a fully-fledged booking system. There are no hidden costs, integration fees, commissions, or additional bills for third-party plugins.

In addition, you will have access to responsive customer service, which you can both email and call.

Step by Step: How to Set Up the Booking System on Your Website

Although the system is powerful and technically complex "under the hood", we have made sure that setting it up is as simple and understandable for you as possible. The process takes only a few logical steps:

1. Set Up the Calendar and Working Hours

Start with when you are available. You can choose a date and time calendar (for hourly precision, for example, beauty care) or just a date calendar (for daily bookings, for example, accommodation). Set working hours and lunch breaks, and immediately mark the dates when you plan to go on vacation or celebrate holidays.

2. Define the Involved Resources

The system needs to understand what exactly the customer is booking. A resource can be an employee (for example, "Master Jana"), a specific place (for example, "Conference Room A"), or equipment. Here you also set the time buffers, the minimum and maximum time before booking, as well as the necessary gap between them.

3. Create Services

These are specific appointments that customers can book for a certain date, time, or specialist. For example: a hairdresser visit, a table reservation in a restaurant, a hotel stay, a boat rental, or participation in an event.

4. Customize Reminder Notifications

Go to the settings and choose how your customers will receive reminders about the made booking: by email (available in all plans) or by SMS (available only in the Premium Pro plan). You can also add your own text to the notifications, for example, including directions on how to find your office or what exactly to bring to the visit.

Important to know: For customers to receive SMS reminders, a phone number field must be added to the booking form. By default, there is no such field in the forms, so it must be added manually so that the system has the necessary contact information to send the message.

5. Finally, Choose How Bookings Will Be Made

You can choose between two models:

• Application form: Visitors simply apply for the desired time by filling in the necessary fields.
• Ready-made service in the e-store: The customer puts the service in the cart and makes the payment immediately. This is an ideal solution to completely eliminate the risk of no-shows.

How to add services to a contact form:

First, create a new contact form by adding a form content block, or choose to customize an existing form. For convenience, it is recommended to create a separate form for applications rather than linking bookings, for example, with an already existing contact form.

Next, in the form settings, click on the "Booking system" button.

Specify all parameters and choose the services you want to offer for booking with this specific form.

That is it! From now on, a visitor filling out this form will be able to easily apply for your service.

How to add a booking as a store product:

Go to the "Store" section - "Catalog Manager" and choose an existing product or create a new one. Fill in the necessary information, specifying the price and other parameters. In the product settings section, scrolling down, you will find the field "Link with the booking system". Choose the necessary service, and that is it! From now on, visitors will be able to make a booking and payment directly in your e-store.

Clear, Customizable, and Convenient Calendar

All management, overview of made bookings, and manual addition of times will henceforth be conveniently accessible in a unified calendar in your Mozello booking panel. To make the work even handier, you will be able to easily customize the calendar view according to the situation, for example, viewing bookings in an individual resource view or choosing a daily, weekly, and monthly view.

Take a Step Towards Smarter Business Management

Stop wasting precious time on administrative routine and let technology work for you! By implementing the new booking system, you will gain not only an organized calendar but also:

• More free time: The system works 24/7 while you rest or work with clients.
• Satisfied clients and peace of mind: Convenient application at any time, without unnecessary calls and correspondence.
• Financial security: Prepayment and automatic reminders protect against "empty appointments".
• Complete control: Everything your business needs in one place: in your Mozello administration panel.

You no longer have to be a hostage to your calendar. The booking system allows you to fully grow a business, improve service, and spare more time for yourself, forgetting about micromanagement.
