Online booking for renewable energy consultants

Independent renewable energy advisers help homeowners, landlords and small businesses decide on solar panels, heat pumps, insulation or other improvements. The typical path is a first call to understand the project, a visit to look at the roof, the heating system and the building, then a meeting to go through options, estimates and quotes received from installers. Some advisers also hold information evenings in a town hall or community space.

Visits need to be grouped by area and fitted between desk work, and first calls come in from people who are at work during the day. A booking page lets them pick a call in the evening or a visit on your travel day.

On Book, each step is a service with its own price and description, and you open slots for each at the length it takes: short calls, longer home visits, review meetings by video or in person. Use the description to say what the visit covers, what to have ready (energy bills, roof photos, installer quotes) and the area you cover. For information sessions, set the slot's capacity to the number of seats; each person books one.

Clients book without an account and receive a confirmation email; you receive an email for each new booking. Reschedule or cancel from your bookings list, and sync with Google, iPhone or Mac. Book doesn't produce energy reports, quotes or invoices. It costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited bookings and services, no commission, no contract.

Your page shows times in your business's time zone, with its name displayed, so there's no confusion for clients booking from elsewhere. To fill a regular week quickly, create a slot once and repeat it on the weekdays you choose until an end date.
