Ring +44 330 912 2553. It answers, and you can try to catch it out.
Why barbershops miss so many calls
Nobody rings a barber twice. If it is engaged they walk into the next shop.
When the phone rings out
- all day, because you are cutting
- Saturday, the busiest day
- before a bank holiday
What they are ringing about
- whether there is a wait right now
- booking a slot for the weekend
- beard trims and prices
What that costs a single site
£9,800
a month, on conservative assumptions
About 38 missed calls a week. Assume only a third would have become customers, that is roughly 13 a week, and one customer is worth £180 to a barbershop. Change any of those to your own figures and the answer stays uncomfortable.
Built around how a barbershop actually works
Answers while you are cutting
Books slots and takes walk in questions

Handles Saturday volume without a queue
It tells callers what it is
It says it is an assistant when it picks up. It gives no advice it is not qualified to give, and anything on your escalation list stops the conversation and reaches you straight away. For a barbershop that matters more than the clever bits, because the calls you cannot afford to get wrong are the ones you most need answered.
What barbershops ask us
We are appointment free. Is it still useful?
Yes. Most calls are how busy are you, and answering that honestly keeps the customer coming rather than trying the shop next door.
Can it take bookings for weekends only?
It offers only the slots you release, so you can keep weekdays as walk ins and book Saturdays.
Will it cost more than it makes?
One extra customer a day at your prices covers it several times over.
