Services
Give clients a few clear ways to start a conversation about your work. You don't need a service for every possible tattoo: begin with the offerings you can explain clearly, then add limited offers or a flash launch when you need them.
Find the service you need
Open Services to see listing status, price/deposit and activity together. Search by name or description, filter to listed services or limited offers, and sort by name, price, enquiries or bookings. On a phone, use the sort menu above the compact list.
The figures answer different questions:
- Enquiries · 30d: requests received for the originally selected service in the last 30 days.
- Open enquiries: requests still in progress, including older enquiries.
- Bookings · 30d: non-cancelled appointments created in the last 30 days for the service actually booked. This is not the number of sessions taking place in those dates.
Archived/spam enquiries and cancelled bookings are excluded. These are activity counts, not revenue, attendance or a conversion rate. A client can change service between enquiry and booking. If activity cannot load, the page shows Unavailable, not a zero count.
What a service contains
Each service has a name, description, type, base price, duration and deposit requirement. Visible services can appear on your public pages.
Use distinct services for different offerings, such as consultations and full-day sessions. Each service has one base price and duration; service variants and add-on groups are not available.
Choose Other for a service outside the listed types, and explain it in the name and description.
Add a service
Choose one offering you already discuss with clients, such as a consultation or tattoo session. Describe what they'll get and which details you still need to agree. You can add more services later.
- Open Services and add a service.
- Use a title clients understand and describe what is included.
- In Pricing and duration, enter the starting price and the typical appointment length using Hours and Minutes. For a 90-minute session, enter 1 hour and 30 minutes. Values marked e.g. are examples for you to replace.
- Choose no deposit, a fixed deposit or a percentage deposit.
- Set Show on public page beside the title.
- Save changes, then check the public preview.
Understand suggested budgets
A selected service's base price guides the booking form's budget bands. Suggested budgets are not a guaranteed quote or a minimum-spend enforcement rule; clients can give a custom budget.
Agree the final price with the client before booking.
Prepare a quote deposit
When you prepare a new quote for a service enquiry, its saved deposit requirement suggests an amount. A percentage uses the quoted price: a 20% deposit on a £300 quote suggests £60. A fixed deposit uses the configured amount, and no deposit suggests zero.
Review or edit the deposit before saving. Once you enter an amount, changing the quote price keeps that amount. Choose Use service default to apply the suggestion again. A fixed deposit above the quoted price needs to be reduced before you can save.
Existing quotes keep their saved deposits. Later catalogue edits do not change an enquiry's original deposit terms. If the enquiry has no saved service terms, or you change the planned service or currency, enter the deposit yourself.
Save the quote before reviewing the quote message or requesting a deposit payment. Those actions use the saved amount; saving a quote alone does not send an email.
Run a limited offer
Choose Add limited offer, or open an existing service and enable its limited-time enquiry window. Set both the first and last date, save, and check the saved status.
The offer is eligible to appear publicly from the first date through the last date, using your studio's time zone. Before that it is Scheduled; afterwards it is Ended. You can hide it earlier with Show on public page. Existing enquiries are retained after an offer ends.
The dates control when clients may enquire, not when the tattoo must take place. Agree the appointment separately. This is not a coupon system, a capacity limit or a claim that a particular number of slots remains.
Share a service
Open a listed service and copy its request link under From offer to enquiry. Use it in social posts, flash launches or campaigns. It opens the booking request with that service selected; it does not reserve a time or take payment.
Sharing is available only when your studio page is live and accepting booking requests, and the service is currently listed. If an offer ends or changes before a client submits, they can continue as a general enquiry without losing their draft.
Follow the work
Select an enquiry count to open the matching Requests queue, or a booking count to see matching appointments. The full studio calendar remains available below the filtered booking list.
New enquiries retain the service name, advertised price, duration, deposit and offer dates as they were submitted. Changing the catalogue later does not rewrite those terms. The agreed quote and booked service remain separate decisions. Older enquiries may not have a saved price snapshot.
Change visibility
The title shows the saved visibility or offer status. If the toggle or dates change, save the form to apply them. Editing a service stays on the same page after saving.
Use Save changes below the form after editing. The button becomes available when you change a value; the unsaved-changes bar also lets you save or discard your draft.
A listed service does not publish a hidden studio page or enable booking requests. Hide a service to stop new enquiries while keeping its history. A service linked to enquiries or appointments cannot be deleted; unused services can be deleted.
Check what clients see
Refresh the service and check its saved values. Open the private preview and ask whether the name, description and price give a new client enough context to enquire. Once the page is public and accepting requests, send a clearly labelled practice enquiry to confirm the brief reaches Studio.
