Most were about a specific barber on a specific day. Adding the rota to the approved answers would cover them.
What stage 3 would add
- Online booking with a £5 deposit for new clients, so Saturday no-shows cost you less.
- Reminder texts the day before, and a rebook nudge at four weeks.
- Same-day gap fill: a cancelled slot goes to regulars who asked to hear about them.
Figures come from the text-back logs and the booking tool. A booking counts as “won” when the customer booked within 7 days of receiving a text-back or assistant reply and hadn’t booked in the 7 days before. Reviews are new Google reviews in the period. This page is sample data for a fictional shop.
