What we hear from wellness & beauty

  • Therapist with a client can’t answer the phone

  • Saturday call volume overwhelms reception

  • No-shows from missed reminder calls

Book clients while practitioners are in appointments

Salons, clinics, spas, fitness studios, and independent practitioners cannot interrupt a treatment or class to answer every call. We can answer in your business name, explain approved service information, and book into your supported diary or booking system.

  • New appointment bookings
  • Reschedules and cancellations
  • Service and availability questions
  • Deposits and payment workflows

Help callers who need a human before booking

The original StudioFit experience showed that not every customer will complete an online booking without asking questions first. A receptionist can guide the caller using your approved information, capture what they need, and help move the enquiry toward a suitable booking.

Handle peaks from promotions and busy Saturdays

Marketing campaigns, seasonal demand, and weekend bookings can create more calls than an in-house desk can answer. Overflow coverage gives each prospective client a professional response without pulling practitioners away from paying appointments.

Frequently asked questions

The questions everyone asks

Is this expensive?
Per-call pricing - typically £85–£240/month for most SMEs, with month-to-month contracts and real-time spend visibility in the app. About 80% cheaper than hiring a part-time UK receptionist.
Will receptionists sound like my business?
Yes. A trained UK team answers using your script and tone.
What if calls spike unexpectedly?
Plans are month-to-month - step up to a higher tier when you’re busy, step down again when you’re not. The app shows your spend in real time, and you can adjust your forwarding rules whenever you need to.
How fast can I be set up?
Most customers go live within 24-48 hours. Forwarding rules are two-minute changes on every UK telco.
Can you book directly into my calendar?
Yes - Google, Outlook, Calendly, plus CRM bookings into Zoho, HubSpot, and Salesforce.
What about confidentiality?
Call data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with role-based access for the receptionist team. GDPR-aligned by default; UK-only storage.
