“I don’t spend much time on admin these days, which has allowed me to author 5 full length novels on my non-teaching days. So I count that as a huge win!”

The Challenge
Before using Jezzam, Anne had used multiple booking systems over a 15 year period, always searching for the right balance of ease of use, affordability, and functionality. As a dedicated dance teacher, Anne pours her heart into running a warm, vibrant dance studio, but like many small business owners, her challenges remain constant:
- Time-consuming admin – Managing class lists, tracking bookings, and handling payments took valuable hours out of Anne’s week.
- Disruptions to workflow – Paper records and manual processing meant she had to juggle multiple tasks while teaching and running the business solo.
- Customer inconvenience – A seamless online booking experience was critical for ensuring a professional and reliable image for Glee’s Dance Studio.
When her last booking provider shut down after Covid, Anne needed a fast, cost- effective, and reliable alternative - one that would replace it while giving her even greater simplicity in day-to-day operations. As someone who thrives on creativity rather than admin, it was essential for Anne to find a system that kept things simple.
Jezzam is easy to set up, and I have to admit, the very reasonable price point was an added bonus. Add the exceptional customer support, and it was a done deal for me."
