Smiler's Latest Feature Updates are Here to Turn 'Busy' into 'Breezy'

As a professional photographer, you're all too familiar with the fact that time is a limited commodity. With the new product updates to your Photographer Suite, you'll be able to manage your calendar better, save time on admin work and make it irresistibly easy for clients to book you. No more jumping between your Suite, inbox and calendar–everything you need is now in one place!

Say Goodbye to Admin Chaos With This Update

Managing a photography business often requires flexibility and precision, and most importantly, the ability to adapt to your client's needs. That's why we're thrilled to roll out new features in the Smiler Photographer Suite to streamline your day-to-day operations and significantly improve your client and booking management.

Enjoy Seamless Google Calendar Integration

Let's be honest, juggling a busy schedule and keeping track of client bookings can be a logistical nightmare. With Smiler's new calendar integration feature, you can connect your Google calendar and Suite to stay organised and on top of your schedule.

By syncing your existing Google Calendar with your Smiler account, you'll be able to view all your bookings, sessions, and events in one convenient location. Having all your booking information centralised and easily accessible means you can make informed decisions about your availability, avoid double bookings, and provide a seamless, reliable experience for your clients.

Publishing Services on Smiler Storefronts

Next up, we've got a significant update—the brand-new Services menu. With this feature creating and displaying your diverse range of photography services (previously bookable products) is easier than ever!

Services allow you to showcase all your offerings and products in one tidy spot. Clients can easily view your offers, choose what suits them, book, and pay in just a few clicks. This smooth process ensures there's minimal friction between browsing your services and booking you on the spot.

Simplified Services Creation

We've also revamped the service creation flow within your Photographer Suite! It's now super straightforward to set up your products and services.

Inside the Storefront tab of your Photographer Suite, you can head to the Services section for an overview of all the services you've already created and the ones that you've published.

To create and publish a new service, all you have to do is click a button! Then, you can tailor everything to match your offer, from the specific niche that you're in to the number of photos included in the package, all within a few clicks. Less time on admin means more time doing what you love!

Define Your Working Hours with Ease

And there's more! Setting your available working hours within the Photographer Suite is now more intuitive. Clearly define when you’re available for bookings to manage client expectations and prevent conflicts.

By doing so, you can ensure that clients only book sessions when you’re actually available, reducing the risk of overbooking and last-minute cancellations. Enjoy peace of mind and a smoother workflow! This simple yet efficient feature helps build a more professional and reliable image, which clients appreciate.

Why These Updates Matter

So, why are these updates a game-changer? For starters, they empower you as a professional photographer to provide a seamless and reliable experience for your clients. They also save you time—time that can be better spent on your photography rather than on admin work. With everything centralised in one dashboard, your life as a professional photographer gets much easier and much more efficient! 🎉
