When did you start with AppyBee?

I started with AppyBee about two years ago, back when I was focusing on growth. At that time I had 100 clients, and now I'm almost at 200—doubling my clients in 2 years. So that's great.

What did you do before using AppyBee?

Before AppyBee, I was mostly just frustrated. Every time someone couldn't make a time I suggested; a text here, can you then, a text back, I can do this and that time. Oh no, I actually want this time. You easily spend five minutes per client, but spread out over several hours. And that's awful.

Why did you choose AppyBee?

I started looking for a calendar feature where clients can book directly into my schedule. I looked at a few companies, and AppyBee best suited my needs. For example, being able to link punch cards to clients that deduct automatically means I don't have to keep track—like oh yeah, that card is full, I need to issue a new one. That is the biggest benefit of AppyBee for me. If I hadn't solved this problem, it would have left me deeply frustrated. That's why it's great that AppyBee keeps me off my phone so much and lets my clients book themselves, saving me precious time. AppyBee is a small monthly investment for me, and I easily earn it back because I save five to ten hours a week on administrative tasks.

Do you find it user-friendly?

The AppyBee fitness software system, the app is really great to work with. If you run your own business and have clients who need to book directly into your schedule, or if you're manually tracking punch cards, you should definitely use AppyBee for the time savings alone.
