Booking software for makeup artists
Brides ask about dates that are not confirmed, two events land on the same evening, and the trial needs booking two months ahead. iGenTor answers, establishes the date and event type, and books — over WhatsApp.

Unlike a normal appointment business, almost every enquiry here is a one-off event on a specific date — and often at hours nobody is working. In wedding season dozens of enquiries arrive at once, and each one needs qualifying before you can even say whether the date is free.
- Enquiries that arrive in the evening and at weekends, while you are mid-event.
- Two events on the same evening, booked before the logistics were checked.
- A makeup trial that gets forgotten and booked at the last minute.
- Brides who enquire, get a price and vanish — with no follow-up.
How iGenTor fixes it
The agent replies immediately, at 11pm and on a Saturday night, establishes the date, the event type and how many people need makeup, checks whether the date is free and offers to book a trial. Every enquiry is stored with its details, so even someone who did not book straight away does not disappear from the list.
What's included
Qualify the event before booking
Date, departure time, location and how many faces — the agent collects whatever you decided matters, before offering a slot or a price.
The trial as its own booking
Set the makeup trial up as a service with its own duration, so it gets booked into the calendar rather than remembered in the final week.
A deposit that holds the date
Take a deposit when the event is booked, with an automatic invoice — the only thing that genuinely holds a date in a busy season.
Follow-up on open enquiries
Every enquiry is stored with its date and details, and you can return to it in a message. In an events business, that follow-up is most of the revenue.
Weekend and evening hours
Event work does not fit a nine-to-five calendar. Hours are fully flexible, including weekends, late finishes and date-specific exceptions for a fully booked season.
Why is a contact form not enough?
A form collects details and leaves you to reply to everyone by hand — exactly when you are mid-event. The difference is response time: a bride who messages in the evening and hears back within a minute feels she is in good hands; the same bride who hears back the next day has already spoken to two other artists. The agent always answers, and you join the conversation when it suits you.
How to start
- Connect your existing WhatsApp number by scanning a QR code.
- Set up service types — bride, guest, trial — with durations and prices.
- Tell the agent what to establish on every enquiry, and it starts replying.
Makeup artist booking FAQ
Can the agent quote prices, or should I do that myself?
Either. You can give it a price list to quote from, or configure it to gather details on pricing questions and hand them to you.
How do I avoid two events on one evening?
The event goes into Google Calendar with its full duration, including travel time if you set one. The agent will not offer a clashing slot, and any calendar change is reflected immediately.
I work weddings on weekends. Does that work?
Yes. Hours are fully flexible and include weekends, evenings and date-specific exceptions.
What about clients who message in another language?
The agent detects the language of the message and replies in it automatically.

Taking a deposit for an appointment — when and how
A deposit cuts cancellations more than anything else. It can also scare off a new client. The difference is what you charge for and how you word it.
Why clients no-show — and how to cut it
No-shows are the biggest expense that never appears in a report. Here is why they happen, and what actually reduces them.

Most comparisons between booking systems look at feature lists. That is usually the best way to choose wrong.
