"I get asked so many times which booking system I use and it has been @styleseat since I started on my own in 2013!! Over ten years and I haven’t found another I like as much! Recently they have added deposits and I’m in love! I never really charged a deposit per se but this makes it so easy and care free! Just set it up on your account and you’re all set! No fuss!"
