In this week's episode Lauren discusses the good and the bad of trying to book a basic beauty service (online) while on a recent trip to Melbourne, Victoria, and spoiler alert, there was a lot of bad.

Lauren searched for, and found, 5 different Salons and attempted to book a service online with each of them, and for the most part she found the process frustrating and/or a complete waste of her time.

Is Your Online Booking Process Losing You Potential Clients?

• "I was struck by how hard it was to book in with 4-of-the-5 Salons online." ~ (03:30).

• "It was all too hard, so I just gave up." ~ (07:50).

• "People want easy! They don't want to put in extra effort just to book in with you." ~ (10:15).

• "I love it when I book online with a business that has streamlined processes (and payment options)." ~ (12:45).

• "Avoid potentially confusing and/or lingo-heavy service names on your online booking system." ~ (14:00).

• "Ask someone outside of the beauty industry to test your booking process for you and to give you feedback (good, bad, and otherwise)." ~ (16:15).

• "Your Booking Process should take 2-3 minutes without confusing, and the payment options should be as simple and as convenient as possible." ~ (18:00).
