Services

What it does

Behaviours, not fields. Choosing between two modules is choosing between these.

The price basis changes how the agent speaks: a fixed price is stated, a scoped one is a starting point with a next step. It is the field that stops the agent committing you to a number.

Duration is text, because 90 min and 4–6 weeks are both correct answers and forcing them into minutes loses the second.

A service with no price still renders, and the agent says it is priced on enquiry rather than inventing a figure.

Where Bookings exists, the duration decides how much of the calendar a booking consumes.

How it works

1
Each service carries a duration and a price basis, which together are what a customer needs before booking.
2
The agent quotes from these rows. Basis changes the sentence: a fixed price is stated, a scoped one is a starting point with a next step.
3
Where Bookings exists, Duration decides how much of the calendar a booking consumes.
4
A service with no price still renders, and the agent says it is priced on enquiry rather than inventing a figure.

Not the right choice for

Long lists someone needs to scan quickly.

What a row holds

Every field, and what the agent listens for to fill it — which is the difference between a page you type into and one that fills itself.

Field	Type	Filled from
Servicerequired	text	What the customer would ask for.
Durationrequired	text	How long it takes. Text rather than a number, because "4–6 weeks" and "90 min" are both correct answers.
Pricerequired	money	The figure, or the starting figure.
Basisrequired	choiceFixed · Scoped per project · Per hour · From	Whether the price is final. The agent quotes differently depending on this.The field that prevents the agent promising a fixed price for scoped work.

What it does not do

A module chosen for something it cannot do costs more than one that was never offered.

No availability. It says what is offered and how long it takes, not when it can happen — that is Bookings.
No per-person pricing or tiering. A service priced differently by customer type needs one row each.
Duration is text, so nothing can sum it. A day of back-to-back services cannot be totalled.
No dependencies between services, so a package is a separate row rather than a composition.

Before it works

What you have to provide, if anything.

Nothing required.
Set Basis honestly on every row. It is the field that decides whether the agent commits you to a price.

In practice

A two-person design studio doing consultations, identities and retainers.

“Identity work starts at 4,800 but it depends on scope. Do not let anyone think that is the price.”

What was said to the agent

What the agent built

The service given a From basis and a scoped-per-project note, so the agent quotes it as a starting figure and offers a call.

What changed

The awkward second conversation — where the real number is three times the first — stopped happening. Enquiries fell slightly; the share that converted roughly doubled.

Better with

These do a different job on the same data. An agent can have all of them.

BookingsLive

Customers reserve time, capacity is finite, and double-booking would be a real problem.

Pricing tableLive

You sell tiers or packages and visitors need to work out which one is theirs.

QuotesLive

Work is won by quoting, and revenue depends on following up the ones that went unanswered rather than writing more.

Who uses this page

Questions

What data does the Services page use?

It reads service records the agent has collected. Bookable offerings. Nothing has to be imported first — the page appears once there is something to show.

Do I have to build or configure it?

No. You describe what you need in a sentence and the agent chooses the view and fills it. Custom pages exist for the cases no built-in view covers, and those are reviewed before they go live.

When is a cards the wrong choice?

Long lists someone needs to scan quickly. It is best for: things chosen by eye — products, venues, people.

Does it stay up to date?

Yes. The page is a view over the data rather than a copy of it, so anything the agent learns afterwards shows up without a rebuild or a re-import.
