# Booking and rebooking that fill a barbershop's chairs without the phone ringing all day.

## Sound familiar?

What barbershops tell us before a project starts.

Public business listings show 1,576 independent barbershops in Massachusetts, and 39% are listed with no website. Source: Pushbuild crawl of Overture Maps place listings, October 2026. Chains excluded.

- The phone rings mid-cut and nobody can answer it.
- No-shows leave a chair empty on our busiest day.
- Regulars stop coming and we only notice months later.
- Our website shows a different schedule from the booking app.
- Each barber tracks their own clients in their own way.

## What we build

Each one is a working piece you can open and check when it's done.

### Booking from every page

A book-now button on your site, Google profile and Instagram that opens the same calendar, so the schedule is right everywhere.

### Reminders that cut no-shows

Texts the day before and a few hours before each cut, with a one-tap way to move the appointment instead of skipping it.

### Rebooking nudges

A friendly text when a regular is past their usual gap, with a link to their barber's next open slots.

### Missed call text back

Callers who reach no one get a text with the booking link, so a busy afternoon does not lose them.

### Review requests

A short text after each visit asking happy clients for a Google review, sent only once per client.

### Chair and sales view

Bookings, walk-ins and product sales by barber on one page for the owner each week.

## Questions people ask first

**Do we have to change booking apps?**

No. We build around the app your shop already uses and only suggest a change if it truly cannot do what you need.

**Will clients get too many texts?**

No. Each kind of message has a limit, and clients can reply STOP at any time.

**Can each barber keep their own clients?**

Yes. Reminders and nudges go out under each barber's name, from the shop's number.

**How do we start?**

Tell us which booking app you use and what costs you the most chair time. We reply with questions or a written scope.
