📒 Guide
How to move from a paper diary to online bookings (free)
Short answer
Write down your services and how long each takes, set your weekly opening hours, add the days you're closed, copy the bookings already in your diary into Freecita's calendar by blocking those days or booking them yourself, and then share your link. The whole switch takes under an hour.
List your services
Name each service and its real duration, including clean-up time.
Set your hours
In Availability, switch on the days you work and set opening and closing times.
Block existing appointments
Book the appointments already in your diary on your own page (use the customer's email) so those times are taken.
Tell your customers
Share the link on WhatsApp and social media, and put a QR code with it at your counter.
💡 Tips
- Keep the paper diary for a week while customers get used to the link.
- Add your team as viewers so everyone sees the day's bookings on their phone.
