Look Busy

I would like to have a checkbox that shows 50% busy 75% busy 90% busy as a scarcity tactic in settings. This will help you look more busy than normal so that way it helps increase bookings, as customers will think they will miss out if they come back later and try to book.

Response from the team

This is live. Open Availabilities, edit the one you want, and set Appear busy. It hides a share of your open time slots so the calendar looks fuller: Slightly Busy hides about 25%, Moderately Busy about 40%, Extremely Busy about 50%. It's set per availability, so you can turn it on for one staff member and leave the rest alone. The levels landed lower than the 50/75/90 you asked for, since hiding much more than half the day starts costing real bookings. Available on Pro Plus and up.
