BARBERSHOP QUESTIONS

Before Elily starts answering.

Does Elily work on my barbershop's existing WhatsApp number?

Yes. Elily runs on your business's own number through the official WhatsApp Business Platform, so clients keep messaging the number they know.

Can she book booked chairs alongside walk-ins?

Yes. Elily checks live availability and applies your walk-in rules, barber shifts and service durations before she offers a valid place or appointment.

What if a client asks for a specific barber?

Elily checks that barber's availability and only offers valid options. If they are unavailable, she follows your rule for offering an alternative or handing the chat to your team.

Can clients reschedule or cancel in WhatsApp?

Yes. Elily can move or cancel the booking, update Google Calendar and confirm the change in the same WhatsApp thread.

Can she price a cut and beard trim together?

Yes. She uses your approved menu and add-on rules, then reserves enough chair time for the full visit.

Do I have to replace my current booking system?

Not for a trial. Elily books into Google Calendar. If your current system does not sync with Google Calendar, we map the safest setup before go-live rather than claim a connection that is not there.

Can Elily send booking reminders?

Yes. She can send confirmations and reminders using the timing and wording you approve, and clients can reply in the same thread if plans change.

Will my team need to manage another dashboard?

No. Authorised staff can update prices, hours, services and availability by messaging Elily. Srileo handles setup, monitoring, backups and support.

SEE HER WITH YOUR OWN BUSINESS
