We knew we had to do something about missed calls — but who has time to deal with technology? Mandu set everything up. Now we don't miss a single call and have 5 new customers per week.

Challenge

Scissors in hand — phone rings.

Mid-coloring, the phone rings. Sabine can't answer — color doesn't wait. After the treatment: 3 missed calls, no voicemail. Happened daily. Sabine estimates 8 to 10 potential new customers slipped through every week.

No time for technology.

Online booking systems? Chatbots? That sounded like IT projects the salon had neither time nor expertise for. Every attempt to set something up ended after 20 minutes in frustration. The salon needed someone to handle it completely.

Solution

Mandu set up everything — literally everything

One conversation: 90 minutes about services, prices, availability, and customer needs. Then Mandu took over: phone assistant configured, online booking set up, SMS reminders enabled. The salon didn't have to do anything technical.

Natural phone assistant with salon terminology

The AI knows the difference between highlights and balayage, understands requests like 'something shorter but not too short,' and books the right time slot — 30 minutes for a men's cut, 90 for coloring. Regular clients are recognized by name.

Results

Zero missed calls

Every call is answered — immediately. Sabine Mertens: 'I never felt guilty again about letting the phone ring. That alone is worth it.'

5 new customers per week — without advertising

The additional customers don't come from marketing, but simply because calls are now answered. People who would have gone to competitors now get an appointment right away. The salon is regularly fully booked for the first time in years.
