COMPANY PROFILE

Warsaw Community Church in Warsaw, Ind., offers a fresh, non-traditional approach to worship and ministry. Its Counseling Center offers sessions in such areas as premarital, marriage and family counseling, individual and child/adolescent therapy, mood difficulties, stress management and financial counseling. The Center's 16 "pastoral counselors" build relationships based on communication and trust with their clients.

THE PROBLEM
Prior to using Appointment-Plus, Counseling Coordinator Heidi Christner took counseling session appointments in the traditional way: by phone and an appointment book. Because the Counseling Center was growing - both in the number of counselors and sessions - it was no longer feasible to rely on a single appointment book to schedule clients and their sessions. In addition to the difficulty in maintaining concise information, counselors did not have the ability to easily look up and view their scheduled sessions and client information.

ANALYSIS
Warsaw Community Church Counseling Center determined that scheduling software would be a valuable tool to help it streamline its appointmentsetting process. Cost was a very important factor, as was accessibility, as it wanted its counselors to have the ability to access their sessions and client information off-site. Another consideration was ease of operation and a system that all of its counselors could quickly learn.

SOLUTION
Ms. Christner and several colleagues conducted online research on appointment-scheduling providers. After testing several services, they were most impressed with Appointment-Plus and chose it for their scheduling needs. It met all of the criteria they sought: low cost, ease of use and Web accessibility.

RESULTS
Appointment-Plus has been a dependable partner for Warsaw Community Church Counseling Center and its counselors since 2008. Ms. Christner uses it to internally schedule approximately 80 sessions per week. She also uses it to generate reports on clients and counselors and send email reminders to clients regarding their upcoming sessions. Counselors enjoy the accessibility provided by the system, as they're able to access their individual sessions and client details on any Internet connection. Additionally, Appointment-Plus helps the Center better manage all of its counseling information by securely storing it in one centralized location. Ms. Christner says she loves the system, and it's well worth the nominal monthly cost. http://www.appointmentplus.com/scheduling_software/church_event_scheduling_software_case_study.php

The Benefits of
Online Scheduling for Church Services and Functions
Churches rely on Appointment-Plus each and every day to improve the efficiency of their services, functions and activities, such as photo shoots of congregation members and families, garage sales and related events, and counseling and therapy sessions. They use the software to surely schedule session and event dates and times (both self-scheduling where church member books his or her appointment online and internal scheduling in the more traditional manner), manage their member information, and send automated email and text reminders regarding upcoming appointments. One example of how churches use Appointment-Plus to improve their operations is detailed in the Case Study on page two. Recent surveys conducted by AppointmentPlus show the real need organizations such as churches have for an alternative to their appointment-setting procedures: Before using Appointment-Plus, over 72 percent of small business owners and their receptionists manually took appointments by phone. Business owners chose to utilize an online appointment scheduling system for two main reasons: expand the ability of their clients to schedule appointments via the Internet (56.5 percent) and decrease the amount of time they and their staffs were spending on scheduling appointments (53.2 percent). Appointment-Plus helped business owners reduce their no-show rate by an average of almost 20 percent. Fifty-six percent of businesses saw their business increase since they began using Appointment-Plus.

Netmedia's Church Hall Online Booking System

Our Church Hall Booking System allows a church organisation, to advertise and accept online bookings of their facilities. The system does not include full e-commerce because our clients wish to vet those making bookings before agreeing to the let. So the system interrupts the process by thanking the enquirer for their enquiry and informing them that they will be replied to shortly after consulting the hall committee. You can set up the software so that it will recognise organisations such as Boys Brigade or the Church Choir and allow them to make bookings without reference to the management . This unique online software has many advantages; it is cost effective, the inbuilt diary display shows all bookings and the stages of all enquiries, pending or otherwise. The system allows bookings to be made at any time and it allows a Church to display images and a short description of the facilities they have available.

Alternative Online Booking System

We can also create a bespoke system that caters to your exact needs. Our specialty is Web Development so we are more than happy to build an online booking solution that takes into account every small detail you might require. Contact Us today for further information about Booking System provided by Netmedia. http://www.netmedia.co.uk/pages/church-hall.php
