Personal stylists: book wardrobe and shopping sessions
How personal stylists can book wardrobe edits and shopping trips online: one service per session, travel in the slot, sizes in the note and follow-ups.
5 min read
A wardrobe edit happens in the client's bedroom; a shopping trip happens in town, for half a day. Neither fits a standard one-hour appointment, and arranging them by message takes as long as the sessions. With Book, each session type becomes a service with its own length, place and price, so clients book the right session and you plan your week around real times.
One service per session type
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Style discovery call | 20 min | 1 | Free |
| Wardrobe edit at your home | 3 h | 1 | €180 |
| Personal shopping trip | 3 h | 1 | €200 |
| Outfit planning session | 1 h 30 | 1 | €90 |
| Capsule wardrobe follow-up | 1 h | 1 | €60 |
Durations and prices are examples: set your own.
Slots that include travel
A wardrobe edit at the client's home starts when you leave your last appointment. Set the slot to cover travel, the session and time to pack up. For shopping trips, start the slot at the meeting point and say where that is in the description.
What to ask in the note
The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email. Ask for:
- sizes and fit preferences;
- the budget for a shopping trip;
- the occasion or goal, such as a new job or an event;
- the address for a home wardrobe edit, with access details.
With this, you can pre-select shops or warn boutiques before a shopping trip.
Linking the two sessions
A wardrobe edit shows what's missing; a shopping trip fills the gaps. At the end of the edit, book the shopping trip yourself from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, the client gets a confirmation with a calendar file for each session.
Packages
If you sell a package of an edit, a trip and a follow-up, Book doesn't sell it: agree the price with the client and book the three sessions from your list. Say in the description of each service that it's also available as part of a package.
Planning your week
Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. Keep shopping trips on days when shops are quieter, and home edits on others. Slots of different services can overlap, so if you open both on the same day, close one once the other is booked. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars.
Seasonal peaks
Add extra sessions before the holidays or the wedding season as their own service with an end date, so they disappear from your page when the season ends.
Online sessions
For a virtual wardrobe review, create a service and send your video link by email: Book doesn't create video links.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't take payments or deposits, sell packages or send reminders. Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: with an associate, create services per stylist. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
