Syncing your Fresha calendar with your personal calendar is a great way of managing the day-to-day responsibilities of running your business alongside your personal schedule, giving you complete visibility of what’s happening on any given day. 

You and your team members can now sync your Fresha calendar with personal calendars such as Google calendar, as well as any other salon booking software your clients might use to book an appointment with you.

By syncing your calendars, you and your team members can view and manage all of your work and personal commitments in one place, saving you time that can be better spent on yourself and your clients, and preventing any appointments from being double booked.
