Why it matters

Missed calls are quiet money leaks

You never hear the appointments that ring out. The research is loud about it.

62%

of calls to small businesses go unanswered

Most happen during peak hours — exactly when new clients call to book.

85%

of callers who don't reach a person never call back

Few people leave voicemails anymore. They just dial the next salon on Google.

98%

of text messages get opened

Versus roughly 20% for email. Jeanie's follow-up text gets seen almost every time.

How she works

From ring to booked chair

Watch a call you couldn't take become an appointment you approved.

The ring you can't take

You're mid-foil, mid-fade, mid-anything. Normally that new client is gone — straight back to Google.

Jeanie answers like your front desk

Warm, unhurried, and booking-first: what are they after, who do they see, when suits them. She knows your services and hours — and nothing she wasn't told.

You confirm by text — booked

Every booking is a request until you say yes. One text from your own phone confirms it, and the client hears back right away.

Good afternoon, you've reached Velvet & Vine — this is Jeanie. What can I get booked in for you?
Hi! Do you have anything for a cut and colour this Friday?
We'd love to. Who do you usually see — or is this your first time in?
First time — afternoon if possible!
Perfect. I'll request Friday 1:30 with the owner and you'll get a text the moment it's confirmed.

Built for busy hands

Built for people whose hands are always full

Foils, fades, full sets, lash lifts — the whole trade happens with your hands occupied and the phone out of reach. Jeanie catches what you physically can't.

Why they get the call

You do better work.
They just have more reviews.

5,000+ reviews

Same neighbourhood, same searchers — Google just sorts by reviews, and theirs has thousands. Jeanie asks every happy client for one, automatically, so your rating finally shows up where new clients are looking. (Illustrative numbers.)

The second wish

Turn happy clients into 5-star reviews

This is the genie's oldest trick — the one Jeanie kept from her Reputini days. After the visit, she asks for a review by text and email, then routes each one: glowing reviews go to Google, rough ones come quietly to you first.

Common questions

Do I need a new number?
No — keep yours. Forward it to Jeanie's line when you can't answer, or put her number in your booking links and socials directly. Your personal cell stays private.
Does she work after hours and weekends?
Yes, 24/7. A lot of booking calls happen at 9 PM when someone finally sits down and remembers their roots.
Who actually confirms the bookings?
You do — every time. Jeanie takes the request and texts it to you; one YES from your phone confirms it and the client is told right away. Your book stays yours.
Is Jeanie a real person?
Jeanie is your salon's automated receptionist — and honest about it whenever a caller asks. What clients notice is that the phone gets answered warmly on the second ring instead of ringing out.
