Sending emails back and forth, playing phone tag and reminding people to show up can clutter your day and keep you from the more important work of growing your business. To help make appointment scheduling simpler and more efficient for you, your staff and your customers, we\u2019re introducing a new Office 365 service called Microsoft Bookings.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4q0TzF0Ut8I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Customers can schedule your business directly online<\/h3>\n<p>Bookings provides your business a unique web page that your customers can use to schedule appointments, even when you\u2019re not around to pick up the phone or respond to an email. The web page is simple to use: the customer first selects the service they want and, based on availability you provide, chooses a day and time when you or one of your staff is available, enters their contact information and books the appointment.<\/p>\n<p>The web page looks great on both larger screens and mobile devices. It\u2019s easy to link to your scheduling page from an email that you send to customers or from your business\u2019s website or Facebook page.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-227865 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-Gif-1-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"779\" height=\"482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-Gif-1-1.png 779w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-Gif-1-1-300x186.png 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-Gif-1-1-768x475.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 779px) 100vw, 779px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Customers<\/em> <em>can book with your business from any device.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Reduce missed appointments with confirmations and reminders<\/h3>\n<p>When a customer doesn\u2019t show up for an appointment, it can mean wasted time and money for you. To reduce no- shows, Bookings sends your customer an email confirmation right after they book, with an option to quickly add the appointment to their calendar. But we all know how busy people can get. So to help customers remember to show up, Bookings allows you to set up a reminder email, which is sent based on how much notice you want to give before the appointment.<\/p>\n<h3>Make it easy for your customers to reschedule or cancel bookings<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes your customers need to reschedule or cancel a booking they\u2019ve made. With Bookings, it\u2019s easy for them to make a self-service change. They simply click the link in the confirmation email or the appointment in their calendar, which then takes them back to the scheduling web page where they can pick a different day and time or cancel the appointment. Want to avoid last minute cancellations? No problem. You can control how much advance notice is required, whether it\u2019s one hour or one week.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-227862\" src=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-1-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-1-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-1-1-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-za\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2016\/07\/Bookings-1-1-768x444.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Your customers can easily reschedule or cancel the booking.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Manage bookings and customer information from anywhere<\/h3>\n<p>All customer bookings are visible in a centralized booking calendar, giving you a complete view of upcoming appointments.

You can create different booking pages and easily add new staff members as your workforce grows. There is no additional cost for creating multiple booking pages, and additional staff members aren\u2019t required to have Office 365 subscriptions.<\/p>\n<h3>How to get Bookings<\/h3>\n<p>Bookings is now rolling out in First Release to customers who subscribe to the Office 365 Business Premium plan and will roll out to all Business Premium customers worldwide in the coming months. Once it rolls out, anyone with an Office 365 Business Premium subscription can access Bookings in the app launcher within the Office 365 web experience. Bookings doesn\u2019t require your business email to be routed through Office 365, so you can keep using your current business email service with no changes.<\/p>\n<p>To get started, sign in to Office 365, open Bookings from the app launcher and then click the <strong>Get it now<\/strong> button. You\u2019ll need to provide a bit of information about your business and the services you want your customers to book. After that, just click the <strong>Save and publish button<\/strong> in the booking page tab to publish your scheduling web page. Your customers will now be able to start booking appointments with your business.
