PRLog -- Scottsdale, Ariz. – Music and dance instructors nationwide are finding it easier to schedule their summer sessions and better manage their student information thanks to innovative online scheduling software from Appointment-
Plus (http://www.appointment-
plus.com/index.php?
m_id=200-2).
A leader in Web-based appointment-
setting systems since 2001, Appointment-
Plus gives these individuals the tools they need to automate their lesson-scheduling procedures and streamline their operations. The result is fewer phone calls, less time managing lesson dates and times, and increased student satisfaction.
The online scheduler offers such functions as secure client self-scheduling;
automated e-mail and text reminders; online payment options; and robust report-generating capabilities.
As a Web-based application, Appointment-
Plus does not require any software installation or costly computer hardware. Additionally, it’s accessible from any Internet connection, a true benefit for instructors who work outside their office or home and need continuous access to their appointment calendar.
“Music and dance instructors provide an enriching service to their students,” says Jeff Fleming, director of marketing at StormSource, the developer of Appointment-
Plus. “Our software automates the entire lesson-scheduling process, which frees up valuable time for more important tasks, such as developing lesson plans and meeting with students.”
A popular feature among instructors and students alike is online self-scheduling, which allows students to view lesson availability and securely book their appointments at their own convenience. All that’s required is an Internet connection.
“Self-scheduling not only gives students the option to book and manage their lessons 24 hours a day, it can dramatically decrease the number of phone calls and e-mails an instructor receives from persons looking to book, change or cancel their appointments,”
Fleming adds. “It’s one of many features that can help music and dance instructors easily and effectively automate their appointment procedures.”
Appointment-
Plus supplies almost 4,000 clients throughout the United States, Canada and 10 other countries the tools they need to schedule customer and patient appointment times, book rooms, accept registrations and many other services. Geared primarily toward small businesses such as doctors’ offices, spas, health clubs and massage therapists, users of the service also include Fortune 500 companies; colleges and universities;
healthcare agencies and facilities; federal and local government; and freight and delivery companies.
