Sound familiar?
If any of these happened this month, this page is for you.
- “How do I book?” sat in your DMs while you were on a client call.
- Three messages back and forth just to find a time that works.
- Someone was ready to talk on Monday and had cooled off by Thursday.
Is Askenly right for you?
Better to know now than after you’ve set it up.
It’s for you if
- You sell calls, sessions or programmes and book them by time.
- People ask how to work with you in comments, Story replies and DMs.
- You want confirmations and reminders sent without chasing anyone.
It isn’t for you if
- You need people to pay when they book. Booking in Askenly is always free.
- You want an AI to coach people for you. Askenly answers from what you saved and hands the rest to you.
- You want to message people who never contacted you.
More booked calls, fewer hours in your DMs
Coaching is sold in conversations. Askenly runs the first part of each one for you.
Goodbye to “does Tuesday work?”
The booking, the confirmation email and both reminders happen without a single message from you.
Booked while they’re still keen
The call is booked minutes after the comment. Two reminders and a reschedule link help people turn up, or move the call instead of skipping it.
Where coaches lose clients on Instagram
A coach posts something useful, a few people comment, one sends a DM asking how to work together. By the time the coach replies with a calendar link, then answers a question about times, a day or two has gone by. Interest cools fast.
Askenly closes that gap. The person who asks gets real times from your availability straight away, in the chat they started, and can book the call with one reply. You see the booking in your calendar and walk into the call knowing what they want, because the booking page asked.

Built for how coaches sell
Questions before the call
Ask about goals, budget or experience on the booking page, so every call starts with context.
Approval when you need it
Review each booking first for high-touch offers. Tentative bookings get no emails until you confirm.
Lead magnets that book
Deliver a free workbook from a comment, then offer a call in the follow-up email.
Your calendar stays right
Google Calendar or Outlook sync keeps busy times out of the offers.
A simple setup for discovery calls
- Create a service called Discovery call with a 20 or 30 minute length.
- Set minimum notice so nobody books a call for ten minutes from now.
- Add two questions to the booking page, such as what they want help with.
- Write confirmation instructions with your video link or phone details.
- Create a Book automation on your Reels with the keyword CALL.
- Add your booking page link to your Instagram bio.
Questions worth asking on a discovery call booking
Two or three questions are enough. Each one should change how you prepare.
- What would you like help with?
- What have you tried so far?
- How did you hear about me?
- Is there anything I should know before we talk?
Content that fills a coaching calendar
Posts that teach one useful thing and end with a clear next step work well with DM booking. A short Reel on a common mistake your clients make, ending with “comment CALL if you want help with yours”, gives interested people a way to raise their hand without writing a long message.
You can also deliver a free resource first, such as a workbook, and include a booking offer in the follow-up email. People who found the workbook useful are the ones most likely to book.
Whatever the post, the booking itself is the same: real times from your availability, a reply to choose, a confirmation with your call details, and reminders.
