07:30For small service businesses

Every customer, every booking, every reply, in one place.

Packed Day is for businesses that do the work themselves. Keep every customer on one record, let people book a time on a page of your own, and answer them from one inbox, on the web and in your pocket.

Free for 14 days. Cancel before then and you pay nothing.

Who it is for

However your week is shaped.

Some businesses work a round and get paid on the doorstep. Others fill a diary with people who book in. Packed Day does both, in the same workspace, with the same customers.

Paid per visit

A round of customers

Window cleaners, gardeners, cleaners. Recurring visits that fill the schedule themselves, money on every visit, who owes you and the day's route.

By appointment

A diary people book into

Physios, tutors, trainers, consultants. A booking page with your open times, bookings straight into the diary, and a confirmation you send with one press.

What you get

Six things, done properly.

There is no module you have to buy later and nothing to configure for a fortnight before it is useful.

One record per customer

Contact details, what you do for them in your own words, and a timeline of every booking, message, note and task.

A schedule that keeps itself

One-off bookings, or a pattern that books itself ahead: every four weeks, the first Monday, every other Tuesday at ten.

A booking page of your own

A link people can pick an open time on. It knows your hours and what is already booked, and puts the booking straight in the diary.

Two-way messaging

Message a customer and what they write back lands in your inbox, from a link in the email. They never make an account.

Follow-ups that stay put

The quote to chase, the question to ask next time. Tasks sit against the customer they belong to until someone ticks them off.

Your words, not ours

Call them visits, appointments, sessions, jobs or calls. The whole workspace, and the phone app, says what you say.

10:15While you are out working

Let people book a time without asking you for one.

A page of your own at a link you can share. It offers the times you are actually free, from the hours you set and what is already booked. The time someone picks is held in your diary, and confirming it sends them an email they can answer.

Your booking page

A booking lands, and the time is held.

Your name on it, your colour on it, and only the questions you want asked. Two people reaching for one slot cannot both have it.

A business’s booking page: their name and what is being booked, a month with the open days picked out, and the open times on the chosen day.

Then Dawn writes back

Your customers write back without an account.

Nobody is downloading software to tell you something has changed. Every message you send goes out as an email from your business with a link of its own: one tap, a box to type in, and what they write lands on their conversation in your inbox.

Messaging

One thread per customer, in both directions.

No sign-up, no password and nothing to install on their side, and the whole thread stays attached to the customer record, so the person picking it up next week can see what was agreed.

A conversation with a customer: a message from the business, and the customer’s reply under it.

14:30Five down, one to go

The phone app is the same day, in your pocket.

Today’s bookings, the customer in front of you, the inbox and your tasks. Tick one done, mark it paid, tap to call, and it is on the office screen before you have put the phone away.

The phone app’s Today screen, with 5 of 6 appointments done: the day’s sky and the sun, what has been paid, and who is next.

What it costs

One price for the business. Not one per person.

Every plan is the whole product: the schedule, the booking page, the inbox, the phone app and a database of your own. What changes is how many customers you are carrying.

One person, one van, the whole product.

18:00After you have gone home

The follow-up happens without you.

When a job is done, a booking lands or a visit is tomorrow, Packed Day can wait, check, and then send the message, add the task or tag them for you. Every step is checked again before it goes, so a job you undo sends nothing.

Your data

Your business gets its own database.

Not a column on a shared table with everybody else’s customers in it. When you are set up, a database is created for your business alone, and that is the only place your customers, bookings and messages live. It is a harder promise to make and an easier one to keep.

Hosted in the UK and Europe. Export what you have put in, whenever you want it, in a format a spreadsheet can open.

No website yet?

We build those too.

Packed Day is made by Fabrio, a small studio building clean, fast websites for service businesses. A site we build is connected to your workspace from day one: every enquiry lands in your inbox, and anyone who books from it is in your diary.
