MindBody’s Online Business Management Software might be the first solution you think of when you want to automate the scheduling and payment processing for your studio. But it certainly isn’t the only one. And, many of my Fit Reformer clients lament it’s expense or ease of use. So here are a few other options for your studio to consider.
If you use any of these or another alternative, please leave a comment and share your experience!
