Deployment notes: New for 2022
How you want Setmore to evolve is paramount. We hear your feedback and strive to make your ideas a reality….
What’s better than booking appointments IRL and growing your business? Booking them in virtual reality, where there’s no limits and your business can become a virtual empire that dominates all others. Turn your digital entrepreneurism into digital escapism with Setmore VR.
Studies show that gamification, or the introducing of task-and-reward style incentives into your everyday activities, can increase customer engagement by 50% or higher.* By gamifying your business calendar experience, not only will you get to experience the thrill of booking appointments virtually, but you’ll also enjoy the rapid fire book-and-reward stimulation that will keep you booking for hours on end.
Setmore VR is a fully-contained headset system that allows you to access and interact with the virtual scheduling world, anytime and anywhere. Before you log into Setmore VR, make sure you have adequate space around your body to ensure that you don’t inadvertently run into objects or injure yourself or others.
The Setmore VR headset, designed with your comfort in mind:
Pro Tip: if you smell burning plastic during use, take a 1 hour break to let the headset cool down.

In Setmore VR, services exist as creatures that you’ll need to hunt both for gaining experience and leveling up, and for booking appointments.
To schedule an appointment in Setmore VR, first locate the creature/service that you want to schedule. In this example, we’re going after the sheep because, as the scissors painted on its woolly coat imply, this will unlock the Haircut service.

Canceling appointments in Setmore VR is a bit trickier. Because appointments are forged with the enchanted shearings of service sheep and/or other creatures, they cannot be destroyed by ordinary means.
To cancel an appointment in Setmore VR, first travel to the volcano at the top of Mt. Gloom.

Setmore VR is currently in closed beta, but we’ll be launching an open beta version soon. Post a comment below if you’d like to be added to the list of testers. We plan to add more functionality, such as scheduling recurring appointments and sending text reminders, in the near future.
In the meantime, book appointments like there’s no tomorrow, because in the virtual world, time is even more of an abstraction. And yes, this is absolutely an April Fool’s day post.
Thanks!
*We totally made this number up.
