The Booking & Payment Challenge

As a coach or consultant, your time is your product. But coordinating bookings and collecting payments can eat up valuable hours. OneLinkPay simplifies this process dramatically.

Use Case 1: One-on-One Coaching Sessions

When a client books a session, send them a payment link immediately. No session confirmed until payment is received.

Workflow:

  • Client requests a coaching session via email
  • You check your calendar and propose times
  • Send OneLinkPay payment link: "Your session is $200. Pay here to confirm your spot: [link]"
  • Client pays instantly, session is confirmed
  • You receive email notification of payment

Use Case 2: Strategy Consultations

For business consultants offering strategy sessions, use OneLinkPay to collect payment before the call. This ensures clients are committed and show up prepared.

Example Message: "Looking forward to our 90-minute strategy session on Thursday at 2 PM. The consultation fee is $500: [payment link]. I'll send the Zoom link once payment is confirmed."

Use Case 3: Group Workshops & Masterclasses

Running a workshop? Create individual payment links for each participant. Track who has paid and who hasn't in your dashboard.

Steps:

  • Announce your workshop via email or social media
  • Interested participants reach out
  • Create a payment link for each person ($150 workshop fee)
  • Send: "Excited to have you join! Secure your spot: [payment link]"
  • Track payments in real-time on your dashboard

Use Case 4: Package Deals & Multi-Session Bundles

Selling a package of 5 coaching sessions at a discount? Create a payment link for the full bundle price.

Example: "5-Session Coaching Package: $900 (save $100). Pay in full and we'll schedule all sessions: [payment link]"

Use Case 5: Emergency/Priority Sessions

Client needs urgent advice? Offer priority booking with a premium fee via OneLinkPay.

Example: "I can fit you in tomorrow morning for a priority session. Fee is $300: [payment link]. I'll confirm time once payment is received."

Benefits for Coaches & Consultants

  • Reduce No-Shows: Paid sessions have much higher attendance rates
  • Faster Booking Process: No back-and-forth about payment methods
  • Professional Image: Clean, branded payment experience
  • Instant Confirmation: Payment = booking confirmed automatically
  • Easy Tracking: See all your session payments in one place
  • Mobile-Friendly: Clients can pay from their phone

Best Practices

1. Set Payment Deadlines: "Please pay by [date] to secure your spot. Limited availability."

2. Include What's Covered: In the payment description, list what the session includes.

3. Send Reminders: If someone hasn't paid, you can see it in your dashboard and send a friendly reminder.

4. Combine with Scheduling: Use OneLinkPay alongside your calendar tool. Payment first, then calendar invite.
