SoLa Guide Service
Premium inshore fishing charter in Louisiana. Custom Next.js booking engine with instant availability checks, PayPal integration, and automated calendar sync.
The Challenge
The old site relied on an expensive, slow WordPress booking plugin that frustrated mobile users. The client needed a zero-fee solution that handled deposits and calendar sync automatically.
The Solution
Built a custom Next.js booking wizard with "Instant Advance" flow, integrated PayPal for deposits, and synced directly to Google Calendar via API. Mobile-first design for clients on the go.
The CT Solution
Mobile-First Booking

Integrated Payments

The Result
