The photography studio reservation site is one example of how Sakurabook's unique functions can be fully utilized.Let's take a look at the unique features of Sakurabook while checking what kind of functions a site can have.

Flexible reservation time specification that customers can freely decide the usage time

One of the major challenges in building a reservation site for a photography studio is setting the usage time frame.The usage time of the photography studio varies greatly depending on the customer.Because.

For example, a customer who wishes to "take one ID photo" may take less than an hour.On the other hand, if the customer wants to take a commemorative photo of the wedding, it may take a whole day.Depending on the customer, there is a wide range of demand, such as how many photos they want, the number of subjects (models), and how seriously they want to work. It may become

Conventional reservation sites cannot respond to individual customers

In this way, if you want to build a reservation site that can respond firmly to the different required times for each customer,Extremely difficult to achieve with conventional reservation systems.

Conventional reservation site building platforms usually do not allow customers to freely decide the required time.Businesses can set the length of the usage time frame in advance, such as "one hour" or "two hours", but the system does not allow customers to flexibly specify the required time according to their wishes. It is

With Sakurabook, each customer can freely specify the required time.

On the other hand, with Sakurabook, these problems can be easily cleared.

Sakurabook's reservation system is a mechanism in which end users can freely specify the required time and make a reservation by multiplying the usage time by the unit price..

For example, a customer who wants to use the service for one hour for a simple photo shoot, a customer who wants to make a reservation for six hours to create a photo book, or a customer who wants to use the service for ten hours for a full-fledged photo shoot. , both can be accommodated.This is because each customer can select an available time from the reservation calendar and make a reservation for the desired duration.

Rental of props and shooting equipment can also be reserved in the "option menu"

Studio services often include the rental of props and equipment.For example, lighting equipment, background paper, reflectors, green screens, and other shooting equipment are often used in the studio.In addition to equipment, there are also photography studios that offer rental services for miscellaneous goods and props used to create a worldview.

In such a case, it would be desirable to be able to receive rental of shooting equipment and props at the same time as simply making a "reservation for use of the studio".If the reservation site did not have such a rental application option, after receiving the reservation, the operation would be complicated and inconvenient for the customer, such as confirming the use request by phone or e-mail, or renting at the reception on the day. service.

Sakurabook can also support "option menu"

If you use the reservation site by Sakurabook, you can also receive applications for optional services such as rental of such equipment and props at the same time.By setting option menus and prices, customers can choose the options they want when booking.

For example, "Shooting studio A from 13:18 to XNUMX:XNUMX on August XNUMX, optional reflector and green screen, two chairs",Receiving all the services that customers need on the reservation site

Capable of accommodating facilities with multiple photography studios

Even if you say photography studio, for example, there are multiple photography studios in one facility such as "A studio" and "B studio", and multiple photography studios such as "Shinjuku studio" and "Ikebukuro studio" You may even run a business.

However, most existing reservation systems can only handle a single reservation calendar and a single reservation menu.butWith Sakurabook, you can also make reservations for multiple facilities and multiple studios.You can create a reservation calendar and reservation menu for each studio and accept reservations individually.

Set an interval time to prepare and clean up thoroughly

Preparation and cleanup are also important for the operation of a photography studio.You need to be ready before the customer arrives, clean up before the next customer comes, and be ready for the next visit.

However, in reality, there are many cases where it is not possible to secure enough time for preparation and cleanup, which leads to trouble.From the customer's point of view,We definitely want to avoid troubles such as "I arrived in time for the reserved time, but the previous user had not finished cleaning up, so the start of use was delayed."Place.In a studio where such troubles occur frequently, the number of customers will eventually go away.

Some conventional reservation sites do not take preparation and cleanup time into consideration.

Most traditional booking sites don't take this setup and cleanup time into account. After the 10:11 to 11:12 reservation slot, the next one is from 12:13 to XNUMX:XNUMX, then from XNUMX:XNUMX to XNUMX:XNUMX, and so on.

Customers who have applied for use from 11:11 naturally expect to be able to start using it immediately at 11:11.However, in reality, customers who made a reservation from 10:11 will be able to use it from 20:XNUMX or XNUMX:XNUMX because of the cleaning up after the previous user.Complaints are inevitable.

With Sakurabook, secure interval time

On the other hand, with Sakurabook, you can secure time for advance preparation and cleanup.By simply specifying the interval time required for preparation and cleanup, it is automatically reflected in the reservation schedule, and the usage limit that can be reserved is adjusted.

For example, create an introduction page for photographers belonging to a studio within a booking site.Not only can you post a full profile, such as your own photo, past achievements, examples of work, areas of expertise, and award history, you can also set up a reservation calendar on the same page.

A customer who thinks "I want to ask this person to shoot" immediately looks at the reservation calendar on the spot, confirms the date and time when you can request the photographer to shoot, and specifies the desired date and time and the required time to make a reservation. can be done.
