Online Booking System for GA3 and your website
The online booking system is a new addon module for Garage Assistant GA3.
This will allow you to offer your customers the ability to book an appointment on your website
24 hours a day, 365 days a year with just a few clicks of a mouse.
The Online booking system is linked with your GA3 software, this means your customers can only book a date and time that's actually available, so there is no need for them to enquire whether you are actually free and no need for you to call them back to schedule a convenient date and time, which is usually the case with online forms and a number of booking services, defeating the object of the customer booking online in the first place.
From the customer perspective, its not too uncommon to remember your MOT is running out, whilst sat at home at 9pm. With the online booking system, this means they can go ahead and book it whilst its fresh in their mind and at a time that's convenient to them and when its actually available for you.
Customisable to suite your requirements.
The online garage booking system can be customised in a number of ways..
You can add a number of different services (its not just for MOT booking) and enter the relevant description and pricing, along with choosing an icon from our library to represent that service.
Each service can have its own number of consecutive booking slots, available dates / days and also each day can have its own available times, so you can be specific to when you are able to take bookings.
What your customers will see and use ...its simple
The integration on the right is using an iframe method, you can also use a link or button instead, allowing you to add it to your website navigation or make use of custom graphics, such as the examples on our Online Booking Demonstration Website
You can also completely change the colour scheme, so it suites your website.
Once integrated, your customers will simply choose the service (if applicable) followed by choosing the date and time they would like. They will then be presented with a small form to enter their details. It really is as simple as it gets.
Go ahead, give it a try and place a booking on our test system
It looks good mobile too !
The online booking system looks great on the iPhone & iPad too. It has been designed to work full screen, using simple touches to navigate. If added to the home screen, it turns into a web-app and opens full screen, with a custom splash screen showing your company name. Because its lightweight, its fast to use even with a slow connection. See Screenshots via FaceBook
We have not managed to test many android devices, but the ones we have its looked great on too!
There is more to come too!
We are constantly striving to improve the online booking system for both you and your end users. We welcome and value your feedback!
Users of the online booking system will also receive a free enhanced listing on our new local mot centre directory (when the project is complete) at www.LocalMOTCentre.co.uk which currently holds details for the 20,000 UK MOT testing stations. We will also be rolling out a similar website very soon which caters for other garages, such as servicing and repairs where an enhanced listing will also be provided, giving you free exposure.
NEW: You can now also integrate the online booking system into facebook for additional exposure.
