The site consult is a paid job
Put the first visit on your page with a fee and a length on it, so the hour you spend walking a backyard with a client stops being free advice.
Learn moreSmart scheduling
Drawing days go in the diary too
Block the days you are at the board the same way you block a site visit, so nothing books over the week a planting schedule is due.
Learn moreCharge for the first hour, not the last one.
A designer is paid for thinking, and the thinking starts the moment you walk through the gate. So the consultation goes on the page as an ordinary service with a fee and a length on it.
Priced before they book it
The fee sits on the page next to how long you will be there, so nobody is startled to find that an hour of your advice has an invoice behind it.
Into a slot you actually have
They pick from the visits you have left this season, rather than filling in a form that promises a call you then have to make.
Everything after it hangs off that job
The survey photos, the concept, the fee proposal and the planting schedule all land on the same record, so a garden has one story rather than four.
Booked out until the planting season.
Design work runs months ahead. When there is nothing left this season the page says so and takes the enquiry anyway.
The enquiry lands as a thread
Address, what they are after and photos of the backyard in one place, so you can judge whether it is worth the drive before you ring.
Answer once, from the job
Reply from the record rather than your texts. What you told them in March is still sitting there when they come back in September.
Book them the moment one frees
A cancelled consult is a gap you fill from the same screen, and the confirmation goes out without you writing it.
We have just taken the fences down and have no idea what to do with any of it. Is there anything left before the planting season?
Built for your trade
Built for the gardens you are actually asked to draw
Inner-city terrace courtyard
A shaded courtyard measured on the paid first visit, then drawn as a concept the client signs off before a single paver is priced.
Landscape plan for a DA
The drawing the council application needs, quoted as its own line so the client can see they are buying a document rather than a garden.
Coastal front garden
Salt wind narrows the planting list to about thirty things that live. The schedule is the whole value, so it is quoted as the deliverable.
Bushfire-prone block
Planting held back off the house and species chosen for it. Booked as a longer site visit, because this one is not judged from photos.
Pool surround rework
Fence lines, paving and screening drawn together off one measure-up, with the build priced by whoever the client hands the set to.
Native verge garden
A small job with a real drawing behind it, quoted at a flat design fee so twenty minutes of admin does not eat the whole thing.
Established garden reworked
Half of it stays and half of it goes. Two visits and a set of drawings, booked as one job so the photos and the notes live together.
Planting schedule only
The hardscape is already done and the beds are not working. Priced as a layout and a species list, with no build attached to it.
Site visits during the build
Visits booked while a landscaper works to your drawings, each one its own job, so the time on site is billed instead of absorbed.
A job that lives in stages, not in a morning.
Visited in March, concept in April, the full set in June, planting in the autumn. The stage a design is in tells you far more than the hour it started.

Which fee proposals were opened, and which went quiet.
A design fee sits on a phone next to two others for a fortnight. Seeing what has been read and what has been accepted makes the one worth a call obvious.

The garden remembers, four years later.
They ring back when the hedge has closed and they want the far end done. Your visit, your concept, the set you handed over and what they paid for it are all still on the record.
Drawing weeks are booked work, not spare time.
Studio days are the first thing a full diary eats. Block them like a site visit and the fortnight held for a planting plan stops being negotiable.
One backyard, three depths of drawing.
Concept plan only, the full set with a planting schedule, or the set plus visits while a landscaper builds it. Three tiers, one document.
A fee, not an hourly guess
Concept, documentation and planting schedule are separate lines, so a queried figure can be traced back to the part it came from.
The tiers sit side by side
Concept only, the full set, or the set plus visits. The client reads all three on one page instead of waiting on three emails.
Sent before you leave the kerb
The proposal goes from the phone in the driveway, usually before the client has finished walking back inside.
Extras priced as options · Pro
Pro puts the tiers on one document with one marked as recommended, and prices the extras a design picks up: a lighting layout, an irrigation plan, another round of revisions. Ticking one moves the total.

Paid for the thinking, then for the set.
Design money arrives in pieces months apart. Record cash and transfers by hand for nothing, or take cards on Pro.
Cash and transfer are free
Mark the consultation paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan and it always will.
Cards come with Pro
Send a card link for the consult fee, and another when the drawings and the planting schedule are handed over.
Split the design fee across stages
Part at the concept, the rest at the final set. Staged requests come with Pro and go out once the job is booked.

Common questions.
Yes, and it is nothing special: it is an ordinary booked, paid service. Put a fee and a duration on the site consult, let clients book it off your page, and either take the card on Pro or mark the transfer paid by hand for nothing.
No. There is no licence for garden design here. The Landscape Design Institute, which was AILDM until 2022, is a voluntary professional body, and landscape architects sit with AILA under a separate qualification. Bookables neither checks nor displays any of that.
Yes. Put them on one estimate as named options with one marked as recommended, and the client picks the depth of drawing they want when they accept. Tiered options come with Pro.
They open the link, read the tiers, and accept by typing their full name. That is recorded with the time and stored on the job, and the accepted estimate turns into a booking without being re-typed.
Then only your own work is on the board. Book your site visits during the build as their own jobs so the hours are billed rather than absorbed. The builder’s programme stays theirs.
Comfortably. The Free plan includes 200 bookings a month with no card required, and a designer running consults, drawing days and site visits sits well inside it.
