Free your desk from queries and bookings with SmartBot
Today's guests want to use self-serve online services to make product purchases, get answers to their questions, and book appointments. And if you're not providing that experience, they will find it with one of your competitors.
SmartBot is an AI-powered chatbot built specifically for the wellness industry. Unlike any other chatbot, SmartBot offers an integrated booking experience with Zenoti. It will answer guest questions and assist them with booking, cancelling, or rescheduling appointments.
Here is how SmartBot can simplify your salon or spa business operations:
Easy Online Booking : Your guests want to book their appointment when they want, as quickly as possible. SmartBot makes booking efficient and effective by connecting your guest with the right provider, at the right time, from the convenience of their mobile phone or computer.
Respond to all customer queries instantly: Even the most well laid out knowledge base or FAQ section has its flaws. Information about your location, memberships, and more can get lost on your site, making it hard for your customers to find the information they need. With SmartBot, guests can get their queries answered immediately
Promote new services, offers, and discounts: Tell your guests about promotions and offers on SmartBot. Sometimes we don’t know we need a keratin treatment until its 25% off with our next colour service.
Efficiently manage high call volume: If you have an IVR number, you can direct your calls to SmartBot, and the bot will send a text to the customer and book an appointment for them. SmartBot will automatically reach out to your customer via text message and help them with booking/rescheduling/cancelation requests in case of a missed call.
Improve customer experience: Free your front desk’s time from appointment and queries management so that they can focus on making your guests feel special.
