What the phone looks like for a London salon
London and the wider Greater London has a population of around 9.7 million, built on professional services, hospitality and an enormous base of independent trades serving them. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a salon working across the City, Camden and Croydon most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
A client who cannot get through books somewhere else, and a colour client is worth hundreds a year.
Callwise answers on your own 020 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.
When London calls go unanswered

Answers on your closed day
London salons ask us
Do we keep our 020 number?
Yes. Your existing 020 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 London customers reach you changes.
Do you work with salons outside London?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so London and everywhere across Greater London 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 book the right length of appointment?
Yes. A full head of colour and a dry cut can have different durations and different stylists, and it books accordingly.
What about our closed day?
Monday is when many clients ring to book the week ahead, and a shut salon takes none of it. It answers all of it.
Will clients mind?
It says it is an assistant, books in seconds and never puts anyone on hold with the dryers going in the background.
Other London businesses we answer for
Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a London 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.
