Quoting eats your chair time
Most salon enquiries start as a message: "How much for balayage and a treatment?", "Do you do bridal parties?", "Can you do a full set for my event on Saturday?". Every one turns into back-and-forth — what's involved, how long, how much, what's the deposit — usually while you've got someone in the chair and colour developing.
So the DMs pile up. You reply between clients, miss a few, and some enquiries go cold before you can quote them. The work you're trained for keeps getting interrupted by the work of quoting it.
Instant quotes from Instagram & Facebook DMs
Our AI instant quoting system, built on n8n, reads the enquiry and sends back an accurate, professional quote in seconds — 24/7, while you stay on the chair.
Client sends a DM
An Instagram or Facebook message describing what they want — a service, a package, an event, or something custom.
The AI reads it
It understands the request in plain language and works out which services and add-ons it involves.
It prices against your menu
The request is matched to your service & pricing library, with add-ons and time applied — so the quote reflects your real prices.
A quote goes back in seconds
A clean, professional quote lands in the DM straight away, even at 11pm — no waiting for you to be free.
Accept → deposit invoiced
When the client accepts, a deposit invoice is created automatically and the booking is locked in. Unaccepted quotes get gentle automated follow-ups.
Reply first, win the booking
Clients book whoever answers first. When an accurate quote lands in the DM within seconds — instead of hours later between clients — you're the salon that gets the booking, without ever stepping away from the chair.
Packages, events & custom work priced automatically
The pricing engine runs on a service & pricing library built around your actual menu, so even the fiddly enquiries get quoted accurately:
- Packages — colour, cut and treatment combinations priced as a bundle
- Events & bridal — multiple people and services quoted as one job, with time accounted for
- Custom services — add-ons, extensions and longer appointments priced by what's involved
- Standard services — straightforward quotes sent instantly so you never re-type prices
Every quote follows your menu and your margins, so what goes out matches what you'd charge.
Deposits invoiced, no-shows reduced
Because the quote is itemised against your prices, the deposit invoice writes itself. The moment a client accepts, a deposit invoice is auto-created and the slot is held — which means fewer no-shows, because clients who've paid a deposit show up. Quotes that aren't accepted aren't forgotten either: automated follow-ups chase them politely so enquiries don't go cold while you're busy.
Works alongside bookings & reminders
Instant quoting sits neatly on top of your day-to-day. It hands accepted bookings straight into your calendar and works alongside an AI receptionist that handles questions, confirmations and appointment reminders — so the quote, the deposit and the booking all flow together without you juggling tabs between clients.
