Paperbell Alternatives
How does Paperbell compare with other tools?
Integrate Payments & Scheduling Into One Beautiful Client Experience
Calendly™ lets you collect a one-time payment when a client schedules. But what if your coaching isn’t a “one-time” type of business? Paperbell gives you a fully-fledged website that allows you to tie scheduling into instalment plans, subscriptions, group coaching packages, and more.
The Kajabi™ Alternative for Coaches That Won’t Break the Bank (Or Your Brain)
Kajabi is a powerful platform for content creators who want to build membership sites, launch podcasts, and grow newsletters. But most coaches don’t need all that! You need client management, scheduling, contracts, and a simple way to sell and fulfill your coaching packages.
Stop Using a Scheduling Tool and Start Using a Run-My-Whole Business Tool
Acuity™ can manage scheduling, but you need a lot more than a calendar tool to run your coaching business. Paperbell lets you launch a website to sell multi-session packages, subscriptions, group coaching, and more. PLUS, scheduling is fully integrated into your website & the whole client onboarding process.
The Elegant, Much-Simpler Dubsado™ Alternative Designed Just for Coaches
You need one streamlined command central for payments, contracts, scheduling, client management, and displaying your coaching packages on a professional website. You DON’T need an incredibly complicated tool that you have to hire a specialist to set up.
The Best Honeybook™ Alternative for Coaches & Consultants
Paperbell was created for consultants, whereas Honeybook was created for creative professionals who deliver a custom project for each client. If you have set coaching packages, Paperbell was designed for you.
The Modern CoachAccountable™ Alternative that Doesn’t Charge You More for Every Lead
Looking for an all-in-one coaching solution that has an elegant, clean interface for you and your clients? Paperbell is modern and enjoyable to use, and our plan includes unlimited clients, unlimited packages, and unlimited everything.
The 17Hats™ Alternative That Was Made for Your Coaching Business
Paperbell understands what a modern coaching business looks like. That’s why we have unique features, like a custom coaching website, delivering digital downloads with your coaching sessions, facilitating group coaching, the ability to create payment plans, pay-in-full discounts, and much more.
Why Coaches are Ridiculously in ❤️ With Paperbell
Launch Your Site
With a few clicks, you’ll have a gorgeous, fully-branded website that sells any kind of coaching package you can dream up. No drag-and-drop needed. Just link your Paperbell site to wherever you hang out online, and your clients and prospects pay and schedule right from your new site!
Get Scheduled
No more endless emails back and forth; no more time zone drama. Your client logs in and schedules themself based on your availability. They’ll automatically see your calendar in their own time zone, and it’s all fully integrated with Google Calendar.
Track Sessions
No more hacked-together systems for figuring out how many sessions you have left with a client. You and your client can both see how many sessions you have left and when it’s time to purchase more. Plus, create client notes and questionnaires, and share digital resources immediately upon purchase or on a drip schedule.
Get Paid
Checkout, scheduling, and contract signing are all included in one seamless process. No “zaps”, integrations, or workarounds necessary. Accept all credit cards via PayPal or Stripe (or create a payment account if you don’t yet have one).
How Does Paperbell Compare? Common Questions
Is Paperbell good for coaches?
Yes! Paperbell is specifically built for coaching businesses and handles everything you need to run your practice: a professional coaching website, payment processing for packages and subscriptions, scheduling, contract signing, client management, and session delivery.
It's designed for coaches who want an all-in-one solution that's beautiful, intuitive, and doesn't charge more as you grow your client base.
Can my clients schedule themselves?
Yes! Our online coaching platform allows clients to see when you’re available and pick the best time for them, all in their own local time zone.
Can I sell sessions-per-month repeating packages? (subscriptions)
Yes! Paperbell allows you to decide how many sessions a client will have per month, then bill them on an ongoing basis until they cancel.
Can you coordinate between different time zones?
Yes! You tell us what time zone you’re in, and your client tells us what time zone they’re in. Paperbell automatically does scheduling in everyone’s local time zone.
Do you integrate with Zoom?
Yes! Just connect your Zoom account, and Paperbell automatically includes the call-in details on the calendar invite for you and your client.
Can I use it for free sessions?
Yes! You’re in control. You create your own packages with any price and any number of sessions.
Can I see an example of someone using Paperbell?
Yes! Here’s an example of a Paperbell shop page, package page, and website integration. You can go ahead and book a free session to see the entire experience from your customer’s perspective.
Are you GDPR compliant?
Yes! Your European customers are safe with us. (Whilst our customers live all over the world, Paperbell is based in the United Kingdom.)
Will it work for in-person appointments?
Paperbell was designed for online businesses that primarily meet with their customers online. While you can use Paperbell if you sometimes meet with clients face to face, there are better tools out there if your business is primarily booking appointments at physical locations.
Can I create payment plans?
Yes! With Paperbell, you can create payment plans that let your clients pay for online coaching packages in regular monthly installments.
Is Paperbell’s scheduling functionality as good as pure scheduling tools?
Yes! We use scheduling best practices to ensure that you and your clients have an excellent scheduling experience. With Paperbell, you can create A/B schedules, create buffer times between appointments, and more.
Both you and your client will automatically see everything in your own local time zones. We can do everything that the standalone scheduling tools like Acuity™ or Calendly™ can do, plus a whole lot more.
Do you have contract signing?
Yes! We integrate with industry leader Dropbox Sign to provide your client contracts. There's no need for a Dropbox Sign account; unlimited contracts are included in your online coaching software.
Can my clients schedule appointments and pay at the same time?
Yes! Paperbell ties these two systems together for you and your clients.
Do you integrate with Google Calendar?
Yes, Paperbell checks in with any Google Calendars you’ve synced to make sure you’re truly available before a client can book a spot. Paperbell also sends a Google Calendar event to both you and your client.
Can I add my logo/custom branding?
Yes! Paperbell allows you to customize the entire client checkout experience with your own logo and branding.
Can you create gaps between appointments?
Yes! Just tell us how long you’d like between each appointment, and our scheduler will make it happen automatically.
Can I create invoices?
Our system simplifies and eliminates the need for invoices. Instead of creating an invoice, you simply send your client the link to purchase a package with you. Clients pay and schedule in one clean workflow.
Can I integrate Paperbell into my website?
Yes! You can link to your booking pages or embed a booking calendar directly on your website (here's an example). You can also link from your social media, email marketing, or anywhere else on the web.
How many coaches can I have on one account?
The Paperbell coaching platform was designed to be used for one service provider. If you have several coaches at your practice, we recommend purchasing a Paperbell account for each coach.
Which currencies do you support?
You can charge your clients in USD, AUD, CAD, EUR, GBP, JPY, NZD, SEK, or SGD. If you need another one, just email us and let us know.
Can I send reminder emails?
Yes! Paperbell will automatically remind your clients about your coaching appointments, and you can completely customize the text of the emails.
Can I add an intake survey?
Yes! Fully-customizable surveys are baked right into the client onboarding flow. Our online coaching tool puts the entire client onboarding process in one place.
Does Paperbell offer a free trial?
Yes, you can take Paperbell on a full 7-day trial run with no limit on features. Try it out, launch your website, get your first clients, and see how easy it can be to run a coaching business online.
