Set Up Your First Service
Services are the core of your GoConverso booking page. Each service represents something a client can book — a haircut, a training session, a consultation, a phone repair, and so on.
When clients visit your public page at goconverso.com/your-username, they see your list of available services with pricing, duration, and a Book Now button.
Auto-activated services
When you select your niche during onboarding, GoConverso automatically creates popular services for your industry. For example:
| Niche | Example auto-created services |
|---|---|
| Barber | Haircut, Beard Trim, Haircut + Beard Combo, Hot Towel Shave |
| Personal Trainer | 1-on-1 Session, Group Class, Fitness Assessment, Monthly Plan |
| Dentist | Cleaning, Whitening, Consultation, X-Ray |
| Phone Repair | Screen Replacement, Battery Replacement, Diagnostic |
| Psychologist | Individual Session, Couples Therapy, Initial Assessment |
These come with suggested names, descriptions, pricing, and durations. You can edit, delete, or add to them at any time.
Auto-activated services save you time during setup. Think of them as starting templates — customize them to match your actual offerings and prices.

Service categories
Categories help organize your services into logical groups. Clients see these categories as tabs or sections on your booking page.
How categories work:
- Create categories like “Hair”, “Skin”, “Nails” (for a salon) or “Individual”, “Group”, “Assessment” (for a trainer)
- Assign each service to a category
- Services without a category appear in a default group
- Categories are displayed in the order you define
Categories are automatically suggested based on your niche. A barber gets “Hair” and “Beard” categories, while a dentist gets “Preventive”, “Cosmetic”, and “Restorative”.
Category groups
GoConverso uses a category group system tied to your niche. Each niche has pre-defined category groups with relevant service categories inside them. This ensures your services are organized in a way that makes sense for your industry.
You can:
- Use the suggested categories as-is
- Rename categories to match your terminology
- Create entirely new categories
- Reorder categories to prioritize your most popular services
Configuring working hours
Working hours define when clients can book appointments with you. They’re set globally and apply to all services by default.
Go to Settings
Navigate to Dashboard > Settings > Working Hours.
Set your weekly schedule
For each day of the week, configure:
- Active / Inactive — Toggle whether you’re available that day
- Start time — When your first appointment slot begins
- End time — When your last appointment slot ends
Example schedule for a barber:
| Day | Hours |
|---|---|
| Monday | 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM |
| Tuesday | 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM |
| Wednesday | 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM |
| Thursday | 9:00 AM - 8:00 PM |
| Friday | 9:00 AM - 8:00 PM |
| Saturday | 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM |
| Sunday | Closed |
Set break times (optional)
Add lunch breaks or other recurring breaks so those time slots aren’t available for booking.
Working hours are configured once and apply to your entire schedule. Clients can only book during your active hours, and the booking page automatically shows available time slots based on your schedule and existing appointments.
Service limits by plan
The number of active services you can have depends on your plan:
| Plan | Active services | Bookings / month |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 5 services | 50 bookings |
| Plus+ | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Pro+ | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Max+ | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Ultra+ | Unlimited | Unlimited |
If you’re on the Free plan and need more than 5 services, you can upgrade at any time from Dashboard > Subscription. See Pricing & Plans for a full comparison.
Tips for great services
- Be specific with names — “Men’s Haircut + Beard Trim” is better than “Combo”
- Write clear descriptions — Explain what’s included so clients know what to expect
- Set accurate durations — This ensures your calendar doesn’t double-book
- Price competitively — Check local competitors and position accordingly
- Use categories — Organized services look more professional and are easier to browse
- Add your best services first — They appear at the top of your booking page
