If you are a coach or a consultant and you're trying to sell your time online what is the best way to do it In this video I'm going to give you two options that I think you're going to like Hey guys John here from income again, and in this video I'm going to show you how you can use calendly or really any booking service and create a sales funnel using Thrive Cart and integrate them together, very nicely so you can sell your time and even be able to upsell and down sell larger chunks of time also.
Okay. It's going to make a lot of sense. Let me give you a couple of examples of why you might want to do this instead of using something that's already built in. So let me first show you the alternative way of doing things kind of a standard way is some booking services like I think commonly has this built in and book like a boss also is able to do this they'll allow you to charge for an hour block up front and they'll go the set their time up and then make the purchase process right there.
And that's just solid option. It's a good option. I'm not knocking that option. I'm going to give you an alternative reality alternative option for you that may make you more money over time. So in this tutorial I'm going to show you specifically how we can use Thrive Carts special URL settings.
To link up into calendar any booking service really. It doesn't require an integration to allow you to sell your time and create a sales funnel to sell more time at a higher premium. Okay, let's dive right in. So here we are in my Thrive Cart account what I'm going to do here.
I'm going to create a new product. I'll just make a quick little digital product and here let me just call this a one-hour coaching. I'm not going to make this too pretty. I want to get the point across here and I'll leave it in test mode. Now for pricing let's go ahead and say we're going to charge $100 for an hour.
That's perfectly fine, just like that. All right and I'll just kind of click through some of the settings here We're not going to do a bump offer for this in particularly Let's go ahead and give us a payment processor I'm going to fly through this really quick So I want to I want to just show you the theory when we get to that screen here.
Alright, so here we go. So we made it to the fulfillment section and we're just going to give some sort of a support URL here. Now what happens after they purchase? So here's where it's a little bit different. Here we're going to do is actually send them to the booking page on the thank you page of this sales funnel, and I'll explain why as we go.
So here I'm going to send them to a URL once they purchased and the URL is going to be whatever calendar. We're booking service you want that's going to take them directly into that booking time. So just for an example, I have a free calendar account and this can work for the free account as well for a free calendar.

Great! For me, your hint with the expiring link is of big value. Although I knew that, I was not really aware of the possibilities combining that.
Boom!
I love this guy , am new to TC and am gonna be using it for my coaching business
This is so helpful. Thanks!
This is awesome! The only challenge is that Calendly does not offer recurring booking, even in their premium plans. Such a bummer that this feature has been overlooked. And in my limited research, Booking Like A Boss doesn't offer it either. This being the case, would you recommend simply encouraging and reminding purchasers to book multiple appointments, one at a time?
Hm... it's a good question. I know Kartra's Calendar has the recurring booking model - I'm honestly surprised Calendly's doesn't have that. I've only really done 1 off appointment bookings on my own client calendar (I use book like a boss).
What I WOULD do though if you want to use Thrivecart is I would sell the "group booking" package or whatever you want to call it, then create a coupon code for the client (a specific code) that has x number of uses - whatever they purchased.
Then they would be able to book as many calls as they have coupon codes for. But yeah, they would need to book the time individually.
You could always kick it old school and schedule the next meeting at the conclusion of the current call :)
Thanks for the video! Let's say you got someone purchased a one-on-one coaching package from you and she can schedule to call you 5 times within one year. How do you keep track of the number of calls this person has made to you? How do you set expiration right away when she has made all the calls? Sorry, I'm not familiar with this shopping cart and would like to know if there are other plugin/software that it can integrate to make it a seamless appointment booking solution.
Hm - I would probably created a limited time coupon for each customer (limited to 5 uses) with a 12 month expiration. This is easy in Thrivecart. Then everything in the video works as mentioned :)
Good morning, John,
I believe that it is impossible to generate personalized coupons that expire after a week for example like Groundhogg would do with woocommerce.
Do you think there is another way to get the same results with Thrivecart?
Have a good day
Totally possible with Thrivecart, with either Thrive Ultimatum or Deadline Funnel - I should do a tutorial on these at some point :) Personally I think Thrive Ultimatum is more powerful than the expiring coupon code because you can advertise the scarcity on your website as well as in your emails
@@johncreates Thank you John :)
Poeple don't like to pay before choosing a booking. I want a system where they can book, and then if they don't pay, the booking is canceled. Unfortunately Calendly does not integrate thrive cart as payment method. Your video does not help...
I need a solution like you too. Did you find a better one?
you can do this using dubsado scheduler...but, in my business I ended up with a ton of people who kept booking my week up with appointments then not completing the next step of payment, literally the next screen. I'm a health consultant, if my field helps.
I've had more success with pay first, book next mentioned here, it weeds out discount seekers, non-committed purchasers, etc.
@@drmicheleross Thanks for sharing appreciate it.
