Thanks Daniel, I took a quick look at your service and from first glance looks very nice. I’ll have to check it out further.
I run a small business (less than 5 employees) and tried both “Appointment Plus” and “Appointment Quest.” I last used “Appointment Quest” alongside “Constant Contact”
for my online appointment scheduling and email marketing requirements.
But I was
then introduced to a new company through a friend of mine, which provides a
“6-in-1” toolset that already has online scheduling, email marketing,
plus a few others.
They give you a 14-day free trial (which I tried), and I
ended up continuing. I don’t use all six tools, but I am using 3 of
them. Best of all, from a price point perspective, you can’t beat
it. They state their tools are worth $180/month, but whether or not
that’s exaggerated, you can’t argue the $19.95/month they’re charging.
Highly recommended if you’re on a tight budget. The company is called Jibbio.
