Squarespace Tutorial [2020] Acuity and Squarespace Scheduling

When you master just a few simple yet powerfully strategic pieces in your Squarespace site you will save yourself SO much time and make SO much more money!
That's where Acuity a.k.a. Squarespace Scheduling is the Secret Weapon of Squarespace!
It’s not something you have to go find a course online or be an expert overnight like copywriting or special code. It’s something you can implement TODAY and will change your business when it comes to saving you time and making you more money.
We can follow in the footsteps of big businesses like Starbucks (www.starbucks.com) to find opportunities to pivot or strategy to meet our customers where they are and how they want to experience something.

Its times like now that push us to implement changes we've known we needed to implement or give us ideas on how to improve or open our eyes to a new perspective.
What has inspired you to do in your business? What has pushed you to make changes in order to sustain and continue staying open through these times?
I have spoken to hundreds of business owners looking to make changes online, asking us for help and I can tell you that this is one solution that continues to come up with me and my team, and I want to share it with you all!

Using the Scheduler can open up many opportunities to save you time. This is part one of a two-part series on setting up Acuity or Squarespace Scheduling and getting the most out of the automation.

Thanks for the feedback. Do you feel that getting straight to the tutorial is more beneficial? I am working to provide as much value as possible, if you don't see this as value I appreciate the feedback!

[@JayCicconeArchaeology]

These two videos are awesome! Thanks!

[@sevensunflowers]

Thank you this was great!!! I literally felt like this was made for me lol. I'm a yoga teacher and said I want to use square space for scheduling and found this video in my search. Now if they select an actually yoga class and not a call how do they make the payment? " I love square space!!!"

[@DrPeterFreed]

Elizabeth is a great, calm, straightforward explainer. I'm not scared to create a schedule page in my site any more!

[@bloomcreativecompany]

Love hearing this thank you for your message! Happy to help!

[@enchantedherbshop]

Thank you!

[@Yasinlicious]

Thank you this helps so much

[@ItsShayDay]

This was so helpful! Thank you.

[@MartinOrkuma]

Thank you!!!

[@petepinoy]

Great video, thank you! Quick question... Is there a way, using Squarespace Scheduling, that would allow customers to purchase a service with a quantity picklist (1-6)? For example, we are setting up a website that allows users to book sailing trips using the Scheduler but we don't know how to enable a quantity picklist. It seems like it only defaults and allows 1. I tried to set this up as a group but this still doesn't display a picklist. We can take up to 6 passengers at a time and desperately need a picklist option at checkout. Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

[@hallatelier8896]

I have the same doubt!

[@divinelyblessedkb]

Okay! So I am super glad that I found your channel! I am a hairstylist who has have a wix business site that I am in the process of completing. I want to add acuity for scheduling. Do I still need to open up an with squarespace or can I do it from wix? Thanks 😊

[@bloomcreativecompany]

Yes, you can certainly use Acuity without Squarespace!

[@MobilediscowirralCoUk]

Great video review! Temping to use for my new website for dj services

[@bloomcreativecompany]

Thanks! Appreciate you being here!

I enjoyed trying to learn this system . The video recording was hard to see due to blur.

[@aprilfraize2168]

Hi there! My husband and I own a dog training business and I run the website and he teaches. Well when I set up scheduling it automatically uses my name as the person who they have the appointment with. I can't find where to change this. Can you help?

[@bloomcreativecompany]

I would recommend reaching out to Acuity support, it would be hard to walk you through it via a message! You can always reach us at [e-mail] as well!

[@oniros80]

I am setting up a website for a company and they want to do appointment booking. If I set up Acuity through the SS site, and they will not be logging in there, can they use the Acuity web interface for their daily operations? Would it be the same log in? Or how would that be managed?

[@bloomcreativecompany]

Hi there! Acuity thorugh the SS site is Scheduler, Acuity via their site is Acuity. You can not use Acuity to log into Scheduler, they will need to access via their site.

[@oniros80]

@@bloomcreativecompany I see. So in the end, when the website is handed over to the client, they will be in the full Squarespace back end just to get over to their scheduler for daily business and checking appointments. Interesting. Thank you for responding.

[@alisonclairecollins]

Hello! Is there a way to send a document out to a client as soon as they book (for instance a Google Doc. or PDF)? Sorry if I missed this!

[@bloomcreativecompany]

Hey there! I actually answered your specific question in this walk-through video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fV6cm3yBqpufl80

[@marskog]

can you make a landing page, for sparespace scheduling ? when costumer have booked ? like a thank you page.

[@bloomcreativecompany]

There is no way to make a landing page in 4.0... unless you use code on the page to remove the navigation. For scheduler, same applies. You can create a page just for the scheduler if that's what you mean? The thank-you page is actually an email. They get an instant confirmation that you can customize with your logo, images, video, text, anything! You can also customize 3 reminder texts and emails.

[@LaDeeDah]

I have the free version of Acuity. I am thinking of creating my website with Squarespace. Will I have to purchase the paid version of acuity AND squarespace or just the paid version of Squarespace to access the benefits of Acuity??

[@bloomcreativecompany]

Paid Acuity and paid Squarespace. Your free version usually is a trial.

[@ivanluisandrade]

Is there a way to approve or deny appointments

[@bloomcreativecompany]

You would have to reach out and delete. I wish they had this feature! I have a Yes/No question on mine and I wish they would deny all the "no" answers!

6:43 she starts talking about what the video is actually about

[@alykotb1581]

really you are assume

[@andynonimuss6298]

It took getting over a 6-minute tangent-filled intro before getting to the actual content. That's way too long of an intro!
