Smart, request-based scheduling that turns booking requests into real customers — without calendar chaos.
Included with OBD Premium • Built for Ocala businesses
💬 Your Booking System Should Work Like a Lead Engine
If someone wants to book you, that interest should never disappear.
Most scheduling tools treat appointments like disposable calendar events.
If a time isn’t available, the lead is gone — no record, no follow-up, no second chance.
OBD Scheduler treats every booking request as valuable customer intent.
Each request:
-
Is captured as a lead
-
Becomes a contact in your CRM
-
Can trigger follow-ups, reminders, and reviews
-
Stays visible even if you’re unavailable
This is booking designed for real businesses — not just calendars.
Every booking request becomes a visible opportunity — not a silent rejection.
