Enquiries arrive everywhere. An Instagram message at midnight, a text from a number you don’t know, a comment under a video, an email asking if you’re free in June with no date, no venue and no name. You reply with the same five questions every time. Somewhere between the third message and the drive to a gig, one goes cold.
Enquiries gives you a booking enquiry form for musicians to hand out, and one place where every enquiry lands.
What’s new
Your own enquiry page. A public page at app.gigflow.co.uk/p/ followed by your name. Clients tell you the occasion, the date, the venue and their details. If they only know the month, that’s allowed.
Venue search. Clients find the venue as they type, so it reaches you as a real place and not a guess at the spelling.
Protection built in. A bot check keeps the junk out, and the form catches an email address that looks mistyped.
An Enquiries inbox on the bottom bar, with “Needs a reply”, “Replied” and “Closed” tabs, and an unread count on the tab.
A diary check. Open an enquiry and Gigflow checks your diary for that date, showing “Diary clear” or “Clash”.
“Add to diary”. Fills the gig form from the enquiry.
How to use it
Set up your page from Settings, under “Your enquiry page”. Then put the link wherever people find you: your bio, your posters, your email signature. A “Taking enquiries” switch pauses the page when you’re fully booked or on holiday.
When an enquiry arrives, open it and reply by “Email”, “Call” or “WhatsApp”. These open your own apps, so the reply comes from you in your own words. When you come back, Gigflow asks whether it went, for example “Did you send it to Priya?”. Say yes and the enquiry moves to Replied.
When the client says yes, tap “Add to diary”, choose whether it’s confirmed or pencilled, and save.
Some honest limits. Gigflow doesn’t write or send your reply, and it doesn’t send quotes for you. Clients never see your diary, because the diary check is on your screen only. Receiving enquiries is free on every plan.
Why it matters
The performer who replies first, with the right questions already answered, usually gets the booking. A proper form means every enquiry turns up complete, and an inbox means none of them gets lost under a pile of other messages.
