I'm looking to purchase Amelia for my business website. I am a photographer and graphic designer.
For photoshoots, I'd like to be able to block out certain days where I will be at a given event (different location every time). Within that event, I'd like to be able to have clients book a one hour timeslot for a photoshoot, with prepayment at time of booking handled via PayPal and Stripe.
For ad design, I'd like to be able to have the form specify a due date instead of a time slot (as it's not an appointment specifically they are making, but a request for work done by a certain date). I'd also like to be able to charge extra for requests made within a certain timespan of the due date (say within 3 days as opposed to earlier).
Are these use cases suitable for Amelia? I've poked around with the free version and it seems to be appropriate, but I want to be sure before I go ahead with my purchase.
I believe Amelia would be great for your purpose, the best way to check is to try the free version.
Amelia has Events - they can be used for various occasions, from basic one or multiple days traveling tours, to scheduling conferences to set up group training or classes that repeat for some time. For whatever you need, you can create one or multi-day events, that can repeat and even have an assigned employee that works on your everyday services.
Special Days – This feature allows you to set one or multiple days in which your employee will have different working hours and/or provide different services. Whether you need to set shorter or longer working hours for just one day or a period, or set a different service for one specific day or a whole week, here you can do all of this. Once you set it, it will override the employee’s general working hours and service schedule but it will not override the days off. Click on the “Add Special Day” button and new options will appear. In the Date option choose a date or a range of dates, then set one or multiple periods with working hours and choose one or multiple services for each of them in the Service option, and select a specific location in the Location option. After you configure the special schedule, click on the “Save Special Day” button and this schedule will be applied.
If you have services that are only provided from time to time (not on a daily or a weekly basis), this feature is for you. You can simply delete the working hours and just use the special days, and the calendar on the front end will show the first available appointment slot. This is useful, especially for services that happen from time to time. The customers won’t need to search for a date. Instead, the month with the available date will be shown right away.
Paypal - this option allows customers to pay appointments directly with PayPal (debit/credit card or PayPal balance).
Stripe - to enable the Stripe Payment method, enable the “Stripe Service” option.
Extras – Extras allow you the possibility to add additional services or products customers can buy when they are scheduling an appointment. By clicking on the “Add Extra” button, new options will appear.
If you need some further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Have a nice day!
