Planning a redesign

A new med spa website does not have to mean a new booking system.

Separate a website redesign from a booking-system change. Use a keep, change and verify worksheet to plan the transition and identify extra scope.

A website redesign and a booking-system replacement are different decisions. Start by documenting how visitors reach your existing booking tool and what you want to keep. Then decide whether the website needs a simple link, a supported embed or something more involved.

Do not assume every tool can be carried into every website unchanged. Compatibility, account permissions, provider rules and the exact implementation matter. This is a planning checklist—not a promise of universal integration.

01

Map the path visitors use today

Write the current sequence in plain language: visitor reads the service page, selects the booking action, chooses a location or service in the booking tool, and follows that provider's process. Your actual flow may differ.

Identify which steps belong to the website and which belong to the external system. This helps prevent a redesign provider from promising features it does not control, such as appointments appearing instantly or changes to the booking vendor's checkout.

02

Be precise about the connection

A link sends the visitor to another page. An embed displays supported external content inside a page. An integration may move information between systems or require authentication and provider APIs. Those descriptions represent different amounts of work and risk; they should not appear as one unqualified “booking included” checkbox.

Ask the proposed provider to identify the method, what will be tested and any separate software fee. A good-looking button proves little about the underlying workflow. Third-party subscriptions and authorizations do not become part of a website package unless stated.

03

Use a keep, change and verify worksheet

Keep: existing booking account, approved service/location destinations, relevant contact choices and the staff process that already works.

Change: selected website design, approved text, location of the booking action and any agreed public page structure.

Verify: the real link or supported embed, selected location, browser/mobile behavior, return navigation and a fallback contact route when appropriate.

Add a column for who approves each item. Do not put passwords or patient information in the worksheet.

Check intent as well as the destination

A “Book now” action is not the right label when the next step is only a request for someone to call. A contact form is not an appointment confirmation. Use wording that describes the actual next step. Keep clinical or sensitive intake in the practice's appropriately selected system, not in a generic website-marketing form.

Before launch, verify the agreed path through an authorized test method. Do not fill a real appointment diary or send multiple fake patient enquiries to prove that a page works. Record test conditions and unresolved vendor limitations.

05

Do not trade continuity for an impressive demo

A preview can show where the action belongs while leaving real transactions disabled. The purchased implementation must then prove the supported behavior before launch. Watching an animation or seeing a screenshot is not that proof.

If the new platform cannot support a required feature, pause the recommendation and price the actual work or choose a better-fitting approach. Replacing software just to make a standard template easier to sell is not a useful redesign strategy.

06

The right brief is small and concrete

“Keep our booking provider. Make its correct link easy to find from these service pages. Confirm location selection and mobile behavior before launch.” That is more useful than “add seamless booking” because everyone can inspect the expected result.

Konify's standard offer should be judged against that same clarity. Supported booking-link work is not a clinical-system integration, and an existing subscription stays separate unless the order explicitly says otherwise.
