The front desk is a vital hub for beauty and wellness businesses: it’s where your staff schedules appointments, checks guests in and out, collects payments, and so much more. Setting the tone for a great guest experience starts here, too.
With the right technology, you can lessen the workload for your staff and help your salon or spa evolve the guest experience.
The Zenoti platform enables self-service or automation for just about every interaction found at a front desk, from salon scheduling software and filling out digital forms to checking in, checking out, and paying. The platform boosts convenience and efficiency for front desk staff, too, freeing them up to offer a fabulous in-person experience starting with a friendly smile and welcome beverage when guests walk in the door.

<h3>Video transcript: Go receptionless</h3>
<p>In this digital world, customers want to do everything for themselves, whether it’s picking out tonight’s pad thai or picking a flight to Thailand. When it comes to touchless digital solutions for that new do or magnificent mani, Zenoti does what others can’t. The traditional booking experience means calling in to book, pre-appointment paperwork, and an endless front desk queue. Boo! There’s a better way for your guests, and for you!</p>
<p>Zenoti software solutions help you do more while doing less, without the front desk. Receptionless means guests can book anytime, anywhere – even when the lights are off. They can even fill out intake forms digitally to boot. And with Zenoti’s mobile magic, guests check in and settle up – tips, too – right from their phones. Phew!</p>
<p>Say adieu to long reception queues and games of front desk phone tag. Customers will love it, but what’s in it for you? Well, self-service booking increases your average booking price by 20% and builds out more predictable revenue. That additional income can be invested in your providers instead of typical overhead costs, thanks to receptionless taking up more of your day-to-day operations.</p>
<p>Zenoti even has a solution for walk-ins with smart kiosks that reduce guest turnaways by 14%. Walk-ins simply add themselves to the queue, pick a time, service, and provider, and go about their day until Zenoti sends them a reminder. And on their way out the door, Zenoti sends automatic nudges to request reviews. Post-COVID, businesses that leverage the mobile app for guests have experienced a 70% jump in guest feedback.</p>
