How Pike13 Partners are Responding to COVID-19

Pike13 software is bolstered through a series of partnerships and integrations that make managing business easier. While we handle scheduling and client management, we’re also able to offer services like email and text marketing, social media referrals, website management and more through our Partners.

Pike13 has been working fast to adapt to the circumstances caused by COVID-19, and our Partners are, too. Here’s how some of them are responding with new features and enhancements to help your business get through this uncertain time. We’ve focused on updates relevant to the Pike13 community.

This list will be updated.

97Display has made it easy to host members-only online classes through Zoom. The video is embedded on your website (which is also built and managed by 97Display) and password protected so only those registered for the class have access. They are also offering high-quality support to customers in setting up virtual classes through Zoom and Facebook Live. Learn More >>
