Allows Service Providers to Accept Appointments Directly on their Facebook Fan Page

NEW YORK, May 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Being a service provider or small business owner just got easier -- at least when it comes to booking and maintaining appointments for clients. Many of today's businesses have both a webpage and a Fan page, but doing updates and spreading the word virally has not been easy for them. The SimplyBook.me solution creates a business website for users in just a few minutes, but more importantly, the users get a Facebook app that they can install on their fan page, where clients can interact and make appointments directly on the fan page. When a client makes an appointment it also becomes visible in the Facebook news feed, socially spreading the word around.

Runar Gretarsson, CEO of Vaka says, "Since we started using SimplyBook.me we have allowed thousands of visitors to make appointments online and by phone. This method has revolutionized our work and greatly improved our service to customers. In the first year of operation I can confidently say that we doubled our sales by better filling empty slots!"

Magnea, owner of CircusCircus says, "In only a few weeks, over 50% of our clients started making appointments online, and when we offered them to do Facebook appointments, the majority of our clients preferred that to our web based module. On our fan page, clients see our messages and offers at the same time they make an appointment and spread the word about our business to their friends. This is simply great and we enjoy the advantage from the rest that has not started using this yet."

SimplyBook.me is free and offers businesses more than just convenience. It automatically sends reminders for appointments, minimizes "No shows" and has a nice dashboard view to see upcoming appointments with images of the clients from their Facebook profile. In addition, since service providers are notified immediately when a client cancels an appointment, there is an increased opportunity to fill the cancellation, thus increasing the business's profit margins on a daily basis.

Ingvar Gudmundsson, CEO of SimplyBook.me says, "I know for a fact that users using our appointment booking solution generate more revenue than before, increase their clientele because of the Facebook viral effect and have happier clients than before that also spread the word by mouth. The simple version is absolutely free to use, and those with bigger business can upgrade to the full version at a low cost, whenever they need."

The solution is remarkably simple to set up and users can begin booking appointments immediately. Virtually anyone can do it regardless of their skill level or experience with online interfaces.
