Booking with per-service durations
A 30-minute intro call and a 90-minute consultation are different slots. Availability comes from your real hours, and a slot is claimed atomically.
For professional services
Consultations, records and invoices without three subscriptions.
A practice that bills by the hour needs a calendar that respects the length of the work, a record of what was discussed, and a way to get paid without chasing. Vendzi puts all three on the same client record.

New client record
Illustrative sample — your hours, staff and rooms.
The daily friction
What actually goes wrong running professional services
Scheduling by email thread
Three messages to find one hour, and a calendar that shows the slot as free because nobody wrote it down.
Notes in one tool, invoices in another
The session is recorded in a document, the payment in an invoicing app, and the client exists twice under two spellings.
Chasing payment after the session
An invoice sent days later, a reminder sent by hand, and no record of who still owes what.
No-shows with no consequence
A held hour that produced nothing, and no deposit rule to make the next booking cost something.
How Vendzi handles it
The same problems, solved on one system
Everything below is in the product today — not a roadmap item.
Deposits on the services that need them
Take a deposit at booking for the long or high-value sessions and leave the short ones frictionless — set per service.
One client record
Appointments, orders and payment history on one timeline, with free-text notes for what was discussed and what to follow up.
Payment links, not invoices to chase
Send a payment link by email, SMS or WhatsApp and the payment lands against the client and the order, through your own provider.
A site that explains the work
Service pages generated from your catalogue of services, with your own domain, structured data and a blog for the writing that wins clients.
Reminders that go out on their own
Automatic reminders before the appointment, and no-shows recorded against the client so the deposit rule can be based on evidence.
A day on Vendzi
From first click to second visit
One record follows the client from the ad to the rebooking — nothing is retyped, nothing lives in a DM thread.
Morning
Booked in one click
The client picks a real opening with the practitioner they want. The slot is claimed atomically, so it cannot be sold twice.
Midday
Protected where it counts
A deposit guards the long, high-value sessions. The short ones stay frictionless — deposits are set per service.
Before
Reminded, not chased
Automatic reminders go out before the appointment, so the forgotten visit is the exception rather than the pattern.
During
Noted for next time
History, notes and preferences land on one client record, with role-based access deciding who can read what.
After
Rung up and rebooked
Services and retail go on one ticket at the counter, the payment is recorded against the client, and the next visit is booked.

Booking & calendar
Clients see the slots your staff can actually work, and a slot is claimed atomically — two people cannot book the same chair.
- Availability derived from each staff member’s hours and time off
- Per-service duration, so a colour appointment is not a haircut slot
- Deposits at booking for the services you want protected
- No-show tracking against the client record
Every visit, attached to a person

Questions
Questions we get from professional services
If yours is not here, ask when you sign up — you will get a person.
Can I charge for a consultation without a shop?
Yes. A consultation is a service with a duration and a price; it can carry a deposit and be paid through a payment link. There is no separate product catalogue required.
Can clients book without creating an account?
Yes — the booking page takes the details it needs for the appointment, and the client record is created from that booking.
Do you support invoices?
Payment is taken through your connected provider and recorded against the order and the client, with an order history you can export. There is no separate accounting ledger — Vendzi is not a bookkeeping system.
Same platform
Also built for
Same platform underneath. What changes is which parts carry the weight — and nothing is locked in.
