What are the different service types?

When setting up your profile and service descriptions, you will notice the different category options for your service offerings.

It is important for you to elect these to assist the booking platform to provide the appropriate functionality ie. number of participants, duration, etc, and the relevant commission structure to be applied.

The definitions below have been provided to assist you in ways to list your service offerings. 

• Individual - primarily used for any 1:1 treatments, healings, and/or consultations.
• Class/Group - This can happen periodically, or at a set time e.g. 8 am on Saturdays, and where a service is delivered to more than one person e.g. a meditation group, yoga class, monthly new moon gathering, customized or tailored group sessions, sound bath or nutritional group classes. 
• Retreat - an immersion-type experience, involving time spent away with multiple participants including accommodation. Can be for personal interest or qualification purposes. If you are providing retreats with other practitioners, then everyone providing advice would be required to be part of the SoulAdvisor community, meet our qualification standards, and hold appropriate insurance.
• Workshop - typically a half-day, full day, or over a few days (shorter than a course), often on a specific topic, and normally for interest rather than for a qualification. If you are providing a workshop with other practitioners, then everyone providing advice would be required to be part of the SoulAdvisor community, meet our qualification standards, and hold appropriate insurance.
• Course - typically runs over a series of weeks, broader than the workshop topic, offering a qualification on completion. As a course will provide a qualification and your students may want to register with SoulAdvisor, then to nominate a course we would require it to be an accredited course by an appropriate association.
• Package - when a multi-session discount is applied ie. 1 session is $150, or purchase 3 for $400.
• Program - a combined series of 1:1 sessions to delve deeper into an issue, often used in coaching, an identified health concern and/or personal development scenario.
• Customized Workshop - tailor a focused learning experience to the specific needs and interests of a particular group or organization. These bespoke sessions can be designed around a specific topic, duration, and desired outcomes, offering a highly relevant and impactful learning opportunity for teams, communities, or private gatherings.
• Customized Retreat - design an immersive and personalized experience for a group seeking deep transformation or connection. These tailored retreats can be crafted around specific themes, practices, and locations, catering to the unique goals and preferences of the participants, whether for personal growth, team building, or specialized training.
• Event/Festival/Retreat/Workshop - this broad category encompasses various gatherings centred around shared experiences, learning, and connection. Ranging from single-day events to multi-day immersions, these offerings provide opportunities for personal growth, skill development, and community building in diverse formats and settings.
• Conference/Summit/Symposium - this group represents more formal gatherings focused on knowledge sharing, professional development, and networking within a specific industry or field. These events typically feature expert speakers, presentations, and discussions aimed at advancing understanding and fostering collaboration among professionals. 

Clients can make bookings through the booking platform in two ways; besides that, clients can book by using the reservation form.

1. Individual: clients can book if you set up their payment method.
2. Class/Group: clients can book if you have set both the payment method and the class schedule.

Besides that, you will receive a Reservation Request via the SoulAdvisor platform.
