Create a Video Consultation Service
Next, go to Manager > Services and add your new Video Consultation service.
Give it a name like Hair Video Consultation or Facial Video Consultation and assign it to your new Video Consultations Category.
Set the Price and Duration then scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click the Online Video Consultations toggle switch to Yes.
Note: You may want to charge slightly less than usual for this service as it's not done in person. However, the slight reduction coupled with an after-care email that links to recommended products on your online store could incentivize clients to spend more with you.
Next, head to the Online & App tab.
First, include an online description explaining your video service.
Then, make sure this service is available online. Once you are happy with the rest of the details and settings for this service click Save.
