Happy New Year to all our clients and friends alike - let us hope this year holds no surprises or shocks like the last, and we can get on with running our businesses

 

This year is all set to be the year of the web portal. We have created an entire suite of online systems, created to allow your customers to interact with you from their own devices. There is a registration system to get them into your database, a verification system to check they are not a robot and a DD sign up system if you need a mandate to be signed. There is also an optional PARQ available if they feel energetic  Add the capability of booking classes, courses, courts and pitches, and your receptionist will be looking a for a new job. All these modules can be used comfortably from any hand-held, internet-ready device

Simply save the link onto a tablet's  browser and hand it to your customer or just insert the link into your existing website and either way your clients will be able to sign a DD mandate. While you are at it, why not create some activity products like 3 classes per week for £80 per month and allow payment by DD. SportSoft have designed a completely seamless, automated interface with GoCardless where when a payment is stopped, so is the membership (and the activities!). There is nothing for you to do, however, you will be informed at every stage.

Self registration process allows your customers to enter their names and addresses on their phone or from a tablet saving reception's time when busy. Only thing left to do is assign them a card, and take their mugshot!
