As a business owner, finding the best appointment scheduling software for your services is key. With user-friendly customizable features, Acuity Scheduling helps your business stand out from the competition. Save time with client self-scheduling that integrates seamlessly with your Squarespace website, and promote your services wherever clients are looking.

From how clients can find your scheduler, to how they can book services with you, find the answers to some of the most common questions users have about getting started with Acuity Scheduling. 

Where can clients schedule with me? 

There are the three key channels where clients can find your online scheduler, and self-schedule services with you:

How can I add an Acuity calendar to my Squarespace website? 

When you sign up for Acuity Scheduling, you’ll get access to insert a Acuity calendar into your Squarespace website. You can do this by using the Appointment Scheduling Block option while editing any of your website’s pages. The type of calendar layout and featured services that will appear on your Appointment Scheduling Block are all customizable. 

How can I share a direct link to my Acuity page with clients?  

Acuity Scheduling empowers you to promote your services and availability anywhere clients can find your business. This gives you options beyond inserting your calendar on your Squarespace website alone. 

First, the easiest way to share your appointment booking link is to customize the URL to match your business name as succinctly as possible. That way, you can easily share “[YourBusinessName].as.me” with current and prospective clients: as part of your email signature, outgoing voicemail, business cards, social media profiles, and virtually anywhere else you promote your business. 

You can also integrate Email Campaigns into your all-in-one Squarespace account. That will make it even easier to build client relationships and share links to your Acuity page or individual services via email.  

How can clients use my online scheduler to book with me? 

With Acuity Scheduling, clients can schedule, reschedule, or cancel their appointments on their own. Whether clients have found your scheduler on your Squarespace website, through a direct link, or from a booking button on social media, they have the same straightforward client self-scheduling experience

To schedule an appointment with you, here are the five simple steps clients take:

  1. Select the service they want to book

  2. Choose a date and time from your real-time availability

  3. Share their personal information and answer any intake form questions

  4. Enter their payment details (if you charge for appointments)

  5. Confirm their appointment

Letting clients choose the time zone, choose a phone call or office visit, and other customizations can save you time and empower your clients to shape your services to meet their needs from the very start. Once they book, they’ll be sent an automated, customizable confirmation email. From that confirmation email, they’ll have the ability to reschedule or cancel their appointment. 

Can I book services for clients?

Yes. Although many businesses benefit from allowing clients to book appointments themselves, there are some industries who prefer to book for clients. 

In this case, you and your staff can use the administrative backend on Acuity Scheduling to book services for clients. From there, you can complete the scheduling, rescheduling, or cancellation processes for clients, and follow up with any applicable charges, refunds, or email notifications. Scheduling appointments for clients is just as simple as the client self-scheduling process.
