Thinking back to the week my entire booking system crashed right before prom season

It was about five years ago, and I was still using a paper appointment book. My pen leaked all over it on a Tuesday, smudging two weeks of bookings. I spent the next three days calling every single client from memory, which was over 60 people. The funny thing is, that mess forced me to finally learn a digital booking app, something I'd been putting off for months. Now I can't imagine running my little booth without it. What's the biggest tech fail that actually pushed you to upgrade your own setup?

Sometimes the old ways are still the best ways.

Hey @lee627, what old ways are you talking about? I feel like a lot of stuff has gotten way better with new ideas.
