Hi! Can anyone help me figure out why i cant get my flodesk form to have a link that works?
So i juat set up flodesk and I verified a domain. But im trying to create a waitliat form to send out. Hoping my home pilates space is done soon but think this is a good way to to if i can gain some interest.
What should i be putting when it asks for name and email from sender? It wont take my gmail. And it wont take the flodesk one?
It says gmail isnt verifed.
Sorry so confusing.😂
Thanks

Thank you so much!! I’m hoping I can build up clients and teach on my days off and eventually be able to leave my full time job. It’s my dream! Thanks for reaching out. It’s so nice to hear you love it!

Hi, I’m Kristen! I’m excited to join this community!
I am trying to start my own business in pilates.
I fell in love with teaching when I started my barre program 7 years ago and then I found Pilates in 2020. I knew I wanted to somehow make it my career and do it full time.
I currently work full time as a Cat Scan Tech at MGH and teach barre, pilates mat and reformer at 2 studios.
I’m also in a Basi 400 hr comprehensive pilates certification program because I want to learn all the things.
After a health scare last year, I realized that I wanted to go for my dream and I finally got the nerve to start planning a way to have my own pilates studio.
I can’t quit my job and go all in so I’m going to start small  with a home studio and see if I can build something that will lead me to opening my own space . We are in the process of renovating the garage and I bought a reformer.
So I need to make a website and get a scheduling platform and figure out pricing so I can launch before the end of the summer hopefully !
I’m really looking forward to all the trainings on this platform and being a part of this community!
