The budget is tight and your schedule is packed. What's an acupuncturist to
do? While acupuncture is an ancient science, modern technology holds the answer
to your office dilemma. Here's how online appointment scheduling software can
revolutionize your business at a super low price.
Client #1:
Client number one is a regular patient who has a rotating work schedule. Usually you end up spending several minutes after their appointment trying to find a new time slot to coincide with their job. Finally, you find a slot for next week and then you begin the cycle all over again with their next visit. No more! Online appointment software allows you to send client #1 out the door without any extra time on your part. Simply encourage them to login to your website, click the appointment button and search for a spot that works for their day to day. In just a few minutes your patient can make an appointment online and you didn't need to lift a finger.
Client #2:
Client number two is a flake. She only remembers her appointments after the fact and then begs you to find a time that you can "fit her in." What is a self-respecting Acupuncturist to do?
Answer: automate her reminder service. Flakey patients can schedule their appointments online from their computer or cell phone and then they will receive confirmations and reminders. Also, little Miss. Flakey can be asked to input her credit card when she’s booking online, that way she will think twice about skipping your appointment (as she can be charged for a no-show). Odds are she will finally show up on time! (collective sigh of relief)

Client #3:
Client number three is type A all the way.
He needs to know that he has a regular appointment and he needs to see
it on your calendar and know he is confirmed. He gets nervous between office
visits and likes to communicate in an ongoing fashion. Most Acupuncturists
would pull out their hair with this client, but not you. You are cool and
collected now that you own online appointment software. Client #3 can now schedule
his appointments months in advance, view it online in his client management
account, get the reminder and feel secure from day to day. Crisis averted.
As you can see, online scheduling software like BookSteam,

Acupuncturists.
