Business Consultants: Create Fantastic Appointment Scheduling Sites

Business Consultants: Create Fantastic Appointment Scheduling Sites

The standard of quality in services in the consulting industry can not be conveyed to anyone as it is an intangible product that is offered and experienced by the customers.

There are definitely indicators that demonstrate how you do as compared to your competition, but it is usually hard to do so because the requirements are different across customers.

Advertising was usually subscribed by companies such as these for marketing which in today's digital age offers alternatives, such as web sites and appointment scheduling sites.

You can use a great online presence to connect more deeply than ever before with your customers. This helps the customer gain faith, trust and high expectations with your firm and your services.



In this scenario, we will concentrate on how to build an awesome scheduling site for the appointment so that you can make the most of it to showcase your company.


Do you really need an attractive appointment scheduling site for your company?

It is critical that your business consultancy firm is in the best way possible, so that your clients are not only impressed by you but also encourage prospective ones to avail your services.

Today an attractive online portal is important for the growth of these businesses. This helps the company instill confidence to the customer along with a sense of trust and consistency in the Internet-centered world of today.

It is essential that you carefully design your booking page in order to offer your clients an excellent online appearance that can enable you to attract more customers over time.


Certain rules and guidelines need to be followed while doing this. But why?

Every industry follows certain design cues that they implement on their websites. While you may notice that there may be variations when they are compared against each other, there will also be some elements that point towards that particular industry.

This is because those design cues are vital in communicating the principles of the organization and the industry. For instance, on their websites, toy shop owners tend to use a lot of vibrant colors because they are commonly seen in kids toys.

Likewise on our websites, we have to use a certain color combination and design style.

In reality, a well-designed web page will show that you took the initiative to create such an image that your customers undoubtedly want.

Be it Handy Persons, Classrooms, Professional Consultation or anything else for that matter, having an attractive and good-looking appointment scheduling website can only work wonders for your business.

This guide gives an overview of what you need to know when designing your scheduling appointment page in your industry. If you need directions covering every step of the process, we have a guide made for that very purpose.


All right, so, how should you go about making an appointment scheduling site?



Everything that the customer wants to know must be included in your appointment schedule section before making an appointment with your company. It provides all the information you need to know and helps you to book a time slot with more detail.

The design and layout of your booking page should not be very different from your website, simply because it does not help to establish a single visual topic for your company's internet presence.

You should not do anything about the background picture of your booking page, since it includes so many elements on your booking page.

You want to design your booking page in such a way that your customers do not waste time on something that otherwise will have to be simple and intuitive process.

To help with this, we recommend you attempt to make a reservation after creating the website in order to find the details on your site that may or may not be important. All of this will certainly lead to a much better appointment scheduling experience for your customers.


The best place to start is your background image.

We recommend that before we proceed with this, you take a look at other websites in your industry on the internet. Like mentioned earlier, you will see some elements that are similar across all of them if you look closely.

Another thing that you will notice is that they are also likely to use a certain range of colors that are mostly similar to each other.

Images of your business make a strong impression of transparency to your customers. This is sure to bring confidence and trust to your customer when they look at your website.

If in case you are unable to find some that you own, you can get some from websites such as Unsplash.
You can also find more details on this on the guide that we had mentioned earlier.

Your color scheme that you use on other elements of your booking page will also influence the background image. To have an idea of your color scheme, you can take a look at your website. Here is the question that you need to answer while doing so:
  1. Have a look at your website to respond in a variety of colors:
  2. What colors are most commonly used on your company's website?
If you manage to get some colors by doing so, you can use them in your color scheme.

If you look for background images, you can keep these colors in mind so you can choose those on them.
This means that when your clients come across your online presence, both your website and the booking page look like they are a part of a system.

Just be careful not to include too many elements on your background so that the text that will appear on top of it is easily visible.


What about the other things on your site, then?

Recall the colors that we have from our color scheme? That is exactly what we will use for other elements on our page as well.

Now that we have finished designing our background image, we mainly have four areas where you will need to apply colors to your booking page: Background Color, Text Color, Color button and Text Color button.

Make sure the color is matched well with the area behind each area when adding the colors. This way we can ensure that the elements and the background are well matched against each other.

This is especially important to the website text, as it should provide details that consumers should know when scheduling a time slot. From your paint scheme, you can try different colors for your text, and choose the one that is more noticeable on your website.

If you can not find such a color, you can always go white, since white is a neutral color, and can go with any combination. Keeping the same suggestion in mind, try out different versions of the website and choose one you think is the strongest.


The text on your site is probably the most powerful part.

You can use the space for text right above the buttons as per your want you need your customers to read when they are on your booking site. You can use it for general information, greetings or as a way to advertise your firm.

You can also count on your customers to read whatever it is given there as it is in the right position for them not to miss it. If you feel that the space given to you is not enough for text, you can edit the background image to add more though you may need to use advanced tools to do that. Also, you need to ensure that the additional text is given in the right place such that it is easily visible among the other elements on your booking page.

We highly recommend that you check your booking page as you keep designing it by clicking the Go To button at the end of the workspace settings and by reviewing the live preview of your booking page. This way you can tweak the template and different sections of the booking page as per your requirement.


Is that everything that you need to do? Not quite!

Get feedback from others by showing them your website after your work is finished. Often we get carried away with our process as we add certain elements which we may not notice that are irrelevant to the booking page.

You will need to ask for advice from people with whom you have trust, including colleagues, family or friends, who can check your work and offer feedback that may or may not improve your reservation.

When you have completed your reservation page, collect input from your customers and invite them to recommend any improvements from their viewpoint.

Not only does this act provide you with information that you can use to grow your company, it also helps consumers to feel confident when they ask for their feedback, because it makes them believe that you care about the quality of your product.

It will only be a long-term benefit for you because it will help create customer loyalty to your facility and services as well.

                                                                                                                I'm asking you all for any feedback as to the logic or reasoning behind drastically limiting portal users when Zoho already meters based on number of records. I'm a single-seat, Zoho One Enterprise license holder. If my portal users are going to add records, wouldn't that increase revenue for Zoho as that is how Creator is monetized? Why limit my customer portal to only THREE external users when more users would equate to more records being entered into the database?!? (See help ticket reply below.)
