🪜 Steps to Create a Class

Step 1: Access the Class Setup

  1. From your Dashboard, go to Services → Classes.
    ​

  2. Click Create a Class.
    ​     You’ll be directed to the class creation form.

Step 2: Basic Details

Personalize your Class by adding essential details.

This helps make your offering more appealing and easier for clients to find.

  1. Class Title:
    ​     Enter a name that clearly describes the class (e.g., Morning Yoga or Beginner Pilates).
    ​

  2. Class Description:
    ​     Add a brief overview of what the class includes. Example: “A relaxing yoga session to improve flexibility and posture.”
    ​

  3. Class Colour:
    ​     Choose a colour to visually distinguish this class in your Frontdesk calendar.
    ​

  4. Upload Image:
    ​     Add a class image (PNG, JPG, or SVG, up to 2MB).
    ​
    Tip: Use bright, inviting images for better visibility on your store.

Step 3: Class Details

Provide more information about the logistics of your class.

  1. Add Location:

    • Select In-person or Online.

      • Enter the address (e.g., 395 Santa Monica Place, Los Angeles, CA 90401).

      • If online, you can specify the URL the class / Session occurs in. (Zoom will auto-fill this field if selected)
        ​

  2. Add Staff:
    ​     Assign one or more instructors or staff members (e.g., Team Omnify).
    ​

  3. Allow Individual Class Purchase:

    • Enable this toggle to let clients purchase individual sessions.

    • Choose the Service Type (Paid, Free, or Trial).

    • Set the Price (e.g., USD 25).
      ​

  4. Child Limit:
    ​     Define how many participants can join each session (e.g., 20).
    ​

  5. Display Remaining Slots:
    ​     Toggle this option to show available spots on your Service Store — great for transparency and driving urgency.

Step 4: Class Schedule

Set when and how often your class will occur.

  1. Select Availability:

    • Start Date: When the class begins (e.g., Today).

    • End Date: Choose Never for ongoing classes or set a specific date.
      ​

  2. Select Recurrence:

    • Pick Custom days of the week or Daily/Weekly.
      ​

  3. Add Schedule:
    ​     Define up to six class times per day. Example:

    • Sunday: 6:00 AM – 7:00 AM

    • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM
      ​

  4. Tip: Consistent scheduling helps clients plan better.

Step 5: Booking Window

Control how far in advance clients can make bookings.

  • Booking Window Opens: Choose a timeframe (e.g., 6 Months before schedule start).
    ​

  • Booking Window Closes: Select when booking should stop (e.g., Start of schedule).

This ensures your class bookings stay organised and manageable.

Step 6: Cancellation Policy

Customize your cancellation terms to suit your business policy.

  1. Toggle Allow Cancellation if clients can cancel their bookings.
    ​

  2. Edit the Cancellation Policy text to reflect your terms. Example:
    ​
    ​ Applicability: Applies to all class bookings made directly through our platform.
    ​ Cancellation: Cancellation terms depend on the policy set by the provider. Please refer to the class’s cancellation eligibility and timeframe for more details.

Step 7: Add-ons

You can attach Add-ons (such as products or extra services) to your class.

Use this to offer upgrades like equipment rentals, merchandise, or private follow-up sessions.

Step 8: Additional Settings

Fine-tune your class settings for better control.

  • Filters: Use Parent and Child Filters to categorize your class on your Service Store.

  • Custom Email Content: Add personalized messages or reminders for attendees.

  • External SKU ID: Assign an SKU if you track classes through an external system.

  • Age Restrictions: Set age limits if your class has specific requirements.

Step 9: Publish

Once you’ve reviewed your settings, click Publish (top right corner).

Your class is now live and visible on your Service Store.

🎟️ Booking Options for Clients

  • Public Classes: Clients can browse and book directly from your Service Store.

  • Private Classes: Set the class status to Private if you only want specific clients to access it.

💡 Best Practices

  • Use unique colours to distinguish classes in your calendar view.

  • Include detailed descriptions and images to attract more bookings.

  • Display remaining slots to create urgency.

  • Keep your cancellation policy clear and transparent.

  • Review your class schedules regularly to prevent overlaps.
