Top tips to gain bookings

A few things to get those bookings skyrocketing, in no time.

1. Build a credible public profile

Your profile is your greatest presence online, while you are physically consulting and building your career. It is the first port of call, the first impression that advice receivers have of you.

It is you, in a nutshell, or in this case on a screen in written word and video. So make it stand out, sell yourself! Make yourself known with all you have.

For more information on exactly how to create a fantastically strong profile see our blog article ‘3 easy steps to strengthen your Conrati profile‘.

2. Enable 30-minute first-time free bookings

Advice receivers can now have a sniffle into any consultants they are considering booking by making a quick 30-minute first-time free booking.

What does this mean for your pocket? Users are far more likely to buy what you are selling when they get a taste of it first-hand. Getting to know the product (that is you!) for free means a greater likelihood of future paid bookings.

We all want to know exactly where our money is going and whether the reward is worth the expenditure. This is your opportunity to prove just how worthy a consultant you are and secure future business. All it will cost you is a mere 30 minutes for new connections and clients.

As an advice provider, here is how to activate 30-minute free bookings on the web:
