Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m Mark, the solo founder behind NoSho.app and today I’m excited (and a bit nervous!) to finally share it with you.
Over the past 25 years while designing experiences for brands like JD Sports, Hugo Boss, Superdry, Wattbike, E.ON and more. One thing has always been clear, businesses want people to checkout fast, and us customers want the same. Netflix, Amazon, Deliveroo and Uber have trained us to expect simplicity and instant action.
I work from home, I’m a parent and sometimes I want a haircut on my lunch yet trying to book something last minute is a maze. You Google it, you browse booking pages that make no sense, you check Instagram, you call them and 9 times out of 10 I give up.
This frustration got me thinking and that’s when it clicked. What if there was a simple way for customers to book last-minute availability and a better way for businesses to list them, as these slots exist but we can’t find them?
I asked around, my partner and friends felt the same. Businesses said they end up posting availability on Instagram stories, replying to DMs and juggling messages while trying to work.
So I started working on NoSho. A platform for service-based businesses to create a quick profile, without downloading anything and learning a new system. They can easily build a waitlist and list availability that instantly emails customers when a new slot goes live. Bookings are secured via a deposit and reminders are sent via WhatsApp and email. Customers only see the times the business has added, no hunting for services that aren’t available. Just what you can book, right now. It’s built for people who want something clean and simple, which is everyone.
NoSho gives businesses one smart link to:
✅ Build a waitlist
✅ Fill last-minute availability
✅ Take secure deposits
If you know a Stylist, Barber, Nail, Brow, Lash Tech, Beautician, PT, Photographer, Tattoo Artist or any business that hates chasing DMs or wants a better waitlist, please share www.nosho.app
Thank you for reading and I hope NoSho helps busy people like me and gives businesses a smoother way to get booked securely 🙏
Mark
