Online booking for a photo studio
The client sees when the room is free and books the hours they need. The administrator only has to meet them.
How this business works
A photo studio rents rooms by the hour to photographers and their clients. There are several rooms, each with its own interior and price. Rehearsal spaces, event lofts and meeting rooms work the same way.
Services are added to the rental: a dressing room, a backdrop, lighting, props, an assistant. People book ahead, and several often ask about the same time.
What gets in the way
"Is the room free on Saturday from two?"
The main question the administrator answers all day.
A booking without payment
The time was held, the client changed their mind, the room stood empty.
Extending on the spot
The shoot ran over, the client asks for another hour, and the administrator is not sure whether the next one is free.
Extras are forgotten
The backdrop and the flash hire were remembered after the client had left.
How BookDo handles it
Free room time by link
Each room is set up separately with its own price. The client sees only free hours.
Card prepayment
Through ATOL Pay. An unpaid booking is held for a limited time and then frees the room.
Extending with a check
Add another hour to the booking: if the time after the client is free it is extended, if not the system says who has it.
Extras and goods in the booking
Props, a backdrop, water are added as a line and the total is recalculated.
Report by room
You see which room is busiest and in which months.
