What to put on a client intake form in Montreal
- Full name
- Company and website
- What do you need done?
- Deadline
- Budget range
- Phone: mobile like +1 (416) 555-0123 or a Montreal landline like +1 (514) 555-0147
- Preferred language (French and English)
- Consent: "I agree to the freelancer using these details for my booking, as set out in the privacy notice (Quebec's Law 25 and PIPEDA)"
Show the price as text on the booking page, for example "C$45 for a project kick-off call, pay by card and Interac debit". CalendarForm does not take payment itself, so customers pay you the way they already do in Canada.

For freelancers in Montreal, CalendarForm gives a freelancer one page with a booking link for calls and a project brief form, so new clients book a time and tell you what they need in one step. Most freelancers stay inside the free tier.
Put the booking link in your email signature.
Use a project brief form before every kickoff.
Set minimum notice so you are never booked same-day by surprise.

Privacy: what Quebec's Law 25 means for this form
In Quebec, Quebec's privacy law adds stricter consent rules and a named person responsible for personal information.
Nationally, PIPEDA is the federal private-sector privacy law: get meaningful consent and use the information only for the reason you gave.
CalendarForm keeps each business's answers separate, lets you export them to CSV, and does not use them for anything else. Link your own privacy notice in the form's description.
Booking times in Montreal
Montreal changes its clocks for daylight saving, so a Intro call at 18:00 stays at 18:00 local time all year. CalendarForm skips times that do not exist on the night the clocks go forward.
Customers booking from abroad still see the time in America/Toronto, with the zone printed next to it, and their confirmation email repeats it.
Set it up in four steps
- Sign up free, pick the closest business type, and rename the starter form to "Client intake form".
- Set the time zone to America/Toronto and add your opening hours.
- Edit the questions above, add the Quebec's Law 25 and PIPEDA consent line, and attach the form to your booking page.
- Share your link. Each booking sends an email confirmation with a cancel link, and a reminder 24 hours before.
Questions
- Is it really free?
- Yes, up to 250 form submissions and 100 bookings a month. Most solo freelancers never pass that.
- Can I use my own domain?
- Not yet. Your page lives at calendarform.bobwork.ai/your-name.
- Is a free client intake form enough for freelancers in Montreal?
- For most small freelancers, yes. You get 250 form submissions and 100 bookings free every month; after that, $5 buys 2,000 more submissions or 500 bookings, and packs never expire. Prices on your page can be in CAD.
- Does the form follow PIPEDA?
- The form collects only the questions you add and shows your consent line. Following PIPEDA is still your job: ask only what you need, say why, and link your privacy notice.
- Can I write the form in French?
- Yes. Questions, options and the thank-you message are free text, so you can write them in French and English.
