Reserve with Google enables a 'Book' button to appear in your Google Business Profile. When clicked, this button directs Google users to your Booking Page, where they can schedule an appointment.

When people are comparing services in their area, your Business Profile provides a snapshot of what you offer and they can reserve right away. Every service has its own 'Book' button, so customers can schedule your specialties directly. No waiting, no need for them to call a competitor.
