### Key benefits of Timely

Say goodbye to technology headaches and let Timely take care of your admin.&#10;More technology shouldn’t mean more hassle. Timely is super-easy to set up and simple to use, with no hidden costs. Automate your admin and enjoy peace of mind knowing your business is ticking away, even when you aren’t in the salon. Our software is designed to tackle all the annoying things on your to do list. No more late nights playing appointment tag with clients over Insta, no more last-minute panics when you’ve forgotten to order stock, no more time wasted on manually sending out consultation forms. Feel less overwhelmed and be more present with your clients, team and family.&#10;&#10;Customise Timely to make it work the way you do.&#10;It’s your name above the salon door, and your reputation on the line – we get that. That’s why Timely is designed to give you full control over how you run your business. Customise your client communications to suit your unique brand, set a cancellation policy you feel comfortable with, block repeat no-show offenders from booking with you, set up a daily payout schedule so you can always get cash when you need it and lock down access to sensitive client information. You control the vision, and we’ll make it happen.&#10;&#10;Build your reputation and keep clients coming back.&#10;There’s no better feeling than delighting your clients. At Timely, we’re just as obsessed with the client experience as you are. We’ve got all the tools you need to make your client’s day – from detailed client notes and before/after photos to a slick digital consultation service. We’ll remember Sandra’s coffee order for you, we know Noah’s pronouns, and we’ll remind you to wear a mask because Maia’s immunocompromised. Want to be booked out months in advance? We’ll help you build long-lasting relationships. Reward loyal clients with VIP offers, and give them a gentle nudge to come back with SMS marketing.&#10;&#10;Understand what’s working and make confident business decisions&#10;Timely gives you a clear picture of your business performance and helps you make confident decisions.
