Makeup Artists: Creating Amazing Appointment Scheduling Sites
In today's world, an internet presence is often crucial to a business' success. Even if your service is excellent, a subpar competitor of yours may get more customers because they may have a better online appearance than you.
You would not want to be the former, do you?
This is exactly why an appointment scheduling site along with a website should be an important part of your business. Customers today look for services such as yours initially on the internet before searching through other sources.
That is why you need to be on the top of your game everywhere possible. Besides having a presence to achieve that, you will also need to make it look amazing so that you manage to convince your prospective customers right from the site.
In this guide, we shall show you how to achieve that for your business without having to spend much effort and time from your side.
Do you really need an attractive appointment scheduling site for your company?
Make-up artists strive to show a person's best and best looking side. You are still among those that ought to appear beautiful and amazing for potential customers.
The better you will manage it; the greater the amount of consumers going to try your services. While this is all well and fair for current customers who already recognize your level of service, what about the new ones? How do they know how good your services are when they have not experienced it themselves?
So, you need a good web presence so you can communicate to your customers that you are good at what you are doing.
Having an amazing scheduling appointment site in today's world will help you land those customers who may not have chosen you had not done so. By looking better in front of prospective customers it helps you compete and stay on top of the competition. This is much more relevant especially when you compete with a lot of other beauty salons that can offer services such as yours.
You will need a great booking page to stay on top of the competition so that your customers are impressed by what they see and are swayed in your direction. To put it briefly, having an attractive booking page can only work wonders for your business as it will improve your online business image.
Certain rules and guidelines need to be followed while doing this. But why?
Every industry has a certain visual style that is followed by everyone and it is important that you also follow something that is prevalent across your business. This is necessary because if you have a style that is not considered attractive in your industry, you may look out of place, which in turn may be bad for business.
Imagine yourself in a scenario in which you are seeking a make up artist's services. Are you not more likely to check out an establishment that has a much better website and booking page than one that is not as good as the previous one? Your customers will experience a similar experience when they are looking for a service like this.
In addition, certain consumers may only believe that your service is outstanding if your look imbibes the industry's visual characteristics. Therefore, because any industry like yours has a certain design and style of which their web pages are created, you need to obey certain guidelines. This gives the appearance of belonging to a particular industry, and also makes the establishment look like a part of it.
Be it Motels, Accountants, Psychiatrists 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?
As a make up artist, you need to showcase yourself using your appointment scheduling site, like mentioned before. This means that you need to make your site as attractive as possible such that your customers will want to avail your services.
This is what you should be aiming for when you are designing your booking page. While you are designing your site, you should also make sure that you provide all the necessary details that your customers need to know.
Since your customers are looking for information, you need to make sure that everything that they need to know about your services is present on your page and that this information is easily available for them to know.
This information should also be readable easily, so that they can read and understand it without much effort. As for the colors you use on your booking page, your color scheme should match the one you use on your website. If you do not have a website, we can always choose a design.
This way, you could provide your consumers with a similar and consistent site experience. This helps the online appearance appear absolutely stunning and polished.
If you succeed in following all of these then you will ensure that your business is presented to your customers online in the best way possible.
The best place to start is your background image.
Let us start by picturing your outcome so you will have a direction to follow in this process. If necessary you can look for inspiration at similar websites on the internet. If you watch closely you will find that nearly all of them have either a single color or an image as the base on which much of the text is displayed.
In fact, that color on all websites belonging to that company would also be the most prevalent color. That is because it helps us to retain continuity and uniformity in all sites by having one color. This allows us to hold the reader's focus on the text rather than on the design while complementing a beautiful template at the same time.
Now that we have established a primary color, we will choose another color that can be used in combination with the first color. A color scheme has the advantage that it can also be used on other elements on the booking page. Given that there are too many shades to pick from, how do we choose the second color?
Try to search for colors that go with the one you have picked online, and search for a background image that combines them very well. It is because it gives your booking page a rather pleasant and appealing feel as this color scheme is heavily used on all aspects of your booking page. You may also use photographs that are maintained for your own use by the organization.
When you do not find any, you can look for pictures from websites like Shutterstock and 123rf for pictures sold for that purpose or you can also browse for royalty-free images from other websites. More information about this can be found in the Guide mentioned earlier in this article.
Ensure sure the picture you chose is not too cluttered with objects, because the user should clearly interpret the text that will appear on top of it. When you want to add your logo to the page, please bear in mind that for the same purpose you may need to use apps like Canva or advanced applications like Photoshop.
What about the other things on your site, then?
We have stated previously that the color scheme you chose will also be used on certain items on the website. This is done in order to complement the background and the other elements on the page, and go well together.
When applying the same for the text and clicking it, make sure the right color matching the corresponding background color is applied.
For example, if the background color of the page where the text is being filled is the base color, then the other color selected in the color scheme will be the color of the document. This is done so that you can ensure that your customers can read the text easily on their booking page without having to make any effort to do so.
Besides this, you can also ensure that the company logo also matches well against the background image if used on the booking page for the same purpose.
Check out the page after all of these have been completed by clicking on the Go To button at the very end of the Workspace Settings to see if everything on the booking page is doing well. We would also recommend that you continue to check the booking page after any changes you make so that you can keep tweaking the elements of the page as needed.
The text on your site is probably the most powerful part.
The text on your booking page is primarily composed of two lines that you can use according to your needs. Although others will use it to show catchy phrases to enhance the page's appeal, others may use it to include specific instructions which the consumer will know before scheduling their appointments.
Through looking at the specifications, you need to choose the usefulness of the text field, because you can not go wrong either way. Ensure that customers can clearly and quickly grasp the text and are confident of what they need to know before scheduling their appointments.
If you do need to add text other than these two sections, however, you can always edit the background image. Having the text in between page elements is often a good way to allow effective use of space.
Please keep in mind that any improvements to the background picture should not affect the overall visual appearance of the booking page.
Is that everything that you need to do? Not quite!
When designing the booking page is done, get reviews from others. It is beneficial, as you will receive feedback from other individuals who have various opinions.
As mentioned earlier, keep reviewing the page after each update, and adjust everything you think needs to be modified in the process such that you build the website the best you can.
You should make sure that it is not too cluttered on your booking page, that it is beautifully pleasing, and that it is readable very easily to someone who may access it. Also, you should make sure all relevant details are present on the page.
We hope that this guide has helped you! If in case you have any questions regarding this guide, let us know in the comments below.
