What the phone looks like for a Reading spa
Reading and the wider Berkshire has a population of around 350,000, built on technology, professional services and some of the most expensive property outside London. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a spa working across Caversham, Earley and Tilehurst most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
A spa day is an impulse purchase and the caller books whichever spa answered and had the date free.
Callwise answers on your own 0118 number. Customers ring the number they already have, it is answered on the first ring by something that sounds like a person, and the job is booked into your diary before the caller has thought about trying anybody else.

Reading spas ask us
Do we keep our 0118 number?
Yes. Your existing 0118 number stays exactly as it is and keeps ringing your phones. Calls only reach the assistant when nobody picks up, or at the hours you choose, so nothing about how Reading customers reach you changes.
Do you work with spas outside Reading?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so Reading and everywhere across Berkshire is covered the same way, along with the rest of the UK. The local part is your number and your customers, and both stay yours.
Can it sell vouchers?
It takes the order and sends a payment link. In November and December that is a large volume of small, easy revenue that otherwise rings out.
What about group bookings?
It captures the numbers, the date and what they want, and passes it to you as a proper enquiry rather than a voicemail.
Will it disturb the atmosphere?
The opposite. Your front desk stops being interrupted by the phone while they are welcoming a guest.

Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a Reading customer would ask. It is the same assistant your callers would get, so if it does not convince you on the phone it will not convince them either.
