Schedules
Shared Calendar
If you have more than one customer, you almost certainly have struggled with a good way of keeping it all straight. With MasterAppears.com you can keep a simple appointment calendar and share that calendar with any member of the site.
Appointment requests
Clients can also request a change of date or added service right on the site using your existing schedule as a guide to your availability. Sound complicated? It's not - seriously!
Reminders
You can choose to be reminded about all the items on your calendar - either through email, text message, or not at all. Never forget about an appointment again.
Money
Electronic Invoices
Because you will be keeping such good track of your schedule, invoicing will be a snap. Simply confirm the services and rates for a client, click a button, and your work is done. Your customers
will receive a message alerting them to the invoice and your payment terms. They will be allowed to pay with a major credit card directly through our site. We use PayPal as our payment processor, so you
will need to set up an account with PayPal if you haven't already, but it's free, simple, and quite secure.
Your Money, right now!
As soon as a client completes the payment process you are paid immediately. You will have instant access to your money through the PayPal account. If you choose to hook up your personal bank account to your PayPal account, then
you can transfer the funds immediately as well - in short, no more waiting in lines at the bank and 2-day holds on checks.
What does it cost?
MasterAppears.com applies a small processing fee on top of your professional fees. Also, for credit card processing, PayPal charges between 2% and 3%. Here is a Sample Invoice
