Setting up your BookingOS account
What to do in your first few minutes in BookingOS.
Once you're in, BookingOS starts you on the Today view — the prioritized list of what deserves your attention, rather than a dashboard of everything you could look at. Getting set up well now means Today stays useful from day one.
- 1Add your business details so they appear correctly on anything client-facing (see Updating your business details).
- 2Add your first few contacts, either by hand or as inquiries come in — see Adding a new contact.
- 3Take a look at the Leads pipeline (New Inquiry → Contacted → Quote Sent → Contract Sent) so you know where an opportunity sits at each stage.
- 4Check the Today view once a day to start — Start Here and Payments Due are the two lists worth building a habit around.
A brand-new account starts empty — nothing shows up in Start Here or Payments Due until you've added a contact or two. That's expected; the prioritized picture builds itself as real information comes in.
