Nail Tech Client Book

Read full description

Polish is a client book for nail techs. Every client is a bottle: her name on the label and, in red, her allergy. Every set you paint leaves a swatch behind it, so her card reads like a colour chart of her year. TODAY'S CHAIR - The appointments you book, in time order, each with her allergy band - Log the visit from the appointment: colour, service, shape, length, price, add-ons, tip and how she paid - Coming up this week, the last seven days' takings with tips apart, and this week's birthdays HER CARD - Phone, Instagram, birthday, her usual shape, length and service, and how often she comes in - Her allergy printed in red on her label wherever she appears: Today, her card and the visit form - Her colours: every set she has had fans out on her card, newest on top - Search by name (zoe finds Zoë), phone digits, colour, brand or allergy - Archive a client and her visits and their money stay in your totals; erase only when you choose PAINT THE SET - Pick the colour from a swatch row or with the eyedropper on the set's photo - Prices read the way you type them, in your book's currency, and shown back before you save - Photos of the set, saved without their location REBOOK IN ONE TAP - After a visit, Polish proposes her next set from her own interval: "Next set in 3 weeks" - Book it and the reminder is set; send her the time in a message - Reminders the evening before, hours before if you like, on the day she's due, and one birthday note a day REFER, DON'T TREAT - Short cards one tap from her allergy band, each line quoted word for word from a dated public health source SETS - Every set with its swatch and photos; filter by colour or style - Save inspiration and use it for her next set - Share a set card: the photo and its swatch, with no name, date or place POLISH PRO - Unlimited clients, every photo of each set, unlimited inspiration - Money: the month's bottle against your goal, tips apart, expenses and booth rent - Your tax year in twelve bottles, and a CSV of it for your accountant - Supplies with a reorder list - Set cards without the Polish mark, and your year recap poster - The next appointment and the month's bottle as widgets YOUR BOOK STAYS YOURS - No account, no ads, no analytics - Your book stays on your iPhone or iPad; nothing syncs through iCloud - The book backup: one file with your clients, visits, appointments, money and photos, to keep in Files or AirDrop to your iPad - CSV export of clients and visits, with the health columns only when you tick them ON YOUR HOME SCREEN AND WITH SIRI - Today's chair as a widget; the next appointment on the Lock Screen and the month's bottle (Pro) - Siri and Shortcuts: Log a Visit, Rebook Her, Who's Next?, This Month's Takings IPHONE AND IPAD - A sidebar on the iPad, light and dark, larger text sizes - In English, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Italian, French and Polish FREE AND PRO Free: 15 clients with every visit they ever had, 3 photos a set, 20 inspiration photos, appointments, reminders, the CSV export and book backups.
