As a lash extension technician, offering a bespoke service to give fabulous luscious lashes, it can be a challenge keeping on top of everything you do each day when you are juggling so many clients in your diary. You give your all to each and every person you see, days turn into weeks, which turn into months and sometimes you don’t even know what the date is!!
Overwhelm! It’s common amongst so many people working for themselves, when there are never enough hours in the day and all the ‘admin stuff’ never seems to quite get done!
Pocket PA was originally made specifically for an eyelash technician, to help you get organised and feel like the boss you really are! It joins up all the dots and is the missing piece of the jigsaw.
It’s a simple web-based app that helps you run your business on the go from your phone, tablet or computer. You can see and manage everything from bookings to book-keeping in one place instead of having to use multiple apps which don’t talk to each other.
The beautifully colour-coded diary shows you exactly where you need to be each day to carefully apply your eyelash extensions, so you can manage your time efficiently and to be way more productive.
The newest version has an option for online booking if you want to offer this service and it can be integrated into your website or social media pages so your clients can book themselves directly into any free slots you have meaning you don’t need to keep messaging back and forth with them!
You can also minimise missed appointments or late cancellations by using the reminder SMS or email message service which is fully automated for ease and convenience and you can even personalise your own message template. Forgotten appointments mean lost earnings which will impact on your profits – so this one thing alone can keep your clients reminded of when they have an upcoming appointment with you!
And if you are a mobile lash technician who goes between your clients' homes, Pocket PA has a Directions button to get you there in the quickest possible time and an inbuilt automated business mileage tracking feature to help you track and claim back all your costs.
As a mobile lash technician, understanding the financial health of your business might seem like a tricky task but you can easily track every payment against individual clients for every treatment you give.
Pocket PA lets you take card payments without needing a card reader so you can offer cashless payments to your clients and this will get logged straight onto your income dial to save you more time.
And easily seeing who still owes you money is vital for any self-employed beauty therapist because collecting for outstanding works you’ve already given can be a headache if it gets left too long.
So, whether you specialise as an eyelash and brow technician or focus more on giving an eyelash tinting service, tracking payments is key. There is one red button you can press to quickly see who you still need to contact for payment.
And you can get paid faster by sending them a personalised invoice so no more awkward phone calls or text messages asking for the money. This invoice will have a clickable link for them to make a direct payment into your account and this will automatically get logged onto your income dial.
Pocket PA is the perfect companion app for any professional lash artist because it can help you track all your business expenses at the click of a button as you go along each day.
Lost and forgotten receipts are a thing of the past because you can snap, sort and store everything and it gets safely saved on the cloud for you or your accountant to refer to any time 24/7.
One-click visual dials will show you the difference between your income and expenses so you will easily understand what your expected profit should be and can manage your cashflow with ease.
Nothing should come as a shock, and you won’t need a maths degree to understand the financial health of your business as its very simple with Pocket PA with everything stored in one place.
With all you need to run a professional small business, every self-employed lash technician shouldn't rely on anything else to get organised and on top of their appointments and finances.
Work smarter and not harder with Pocket PA so you can relax with your own work-life balance and indulge in a bit of pampering for yourself, knowing you have all your bases covered.
