For hair salons

A new client isn’t a client until she books again.

Plebco runs the follow-up and the rebooking text after every visit, so the trial turns into a standing appointment.

Works alongside Vagaro, Zenoti, Boulevard, Square or a paper book. Setup in about fifteen minutes.

The first visit is an audition

She found you on Instagram, booked a colour, loved it, tipped well and said she would see you in six weeks. That is not a client yet. That is someone who tried you once.

The second appointment is where she becomes worth something. It is the difference between a $200 transaction and a $1,600-a-year relationship. And nothing in your salon owns the gap between the two.

You are working harder than ever to get her through the door the first time. That makes the second visit worth more than it used to be, and it makes losing her at that stage more expensive.

Six weeks is a long time to stay top of mind

She meant it. Then she got busy, the regrowth crept up, and by the time it bothered her enough to act, she needed an appointment soon rather than an appointment with you.

That is the moment you lose her, and it does not look like losing her. It looks like nothing happening.

The same process for every client, from the first visit

Plebco runs the follow-up after she leaves, the rebooking nudge when she is due, and the reach-out if she goes quiet. Every client, every time.

A new client runs on a typical interval for the service. Once she has been in a few times, Plebco has learned her own gap and works to that instead, which matters here more than anywhere because your colour clients and your cut clients are weeks apart.

~4 weeks

Root touch-up. Regrowth is visible and she knows it.

~6 weeks

Colour maintenance, gloss, toner refresh.

~8 weeks

Balayage and lived-in colour.

~10–12 weeks

Cut only, or the client who stretches everything.

Examples. Once a client has a few visits on file, Plebco works to her real interval.

What runs after every visit

The part nobody owns

Your booking system takes the appointment and closes the ticket. After that, it is somebody’s job to remember, and at a busy shop nobody does.

  1. 01Reminder24 hours and 2 hours before, so they show up
  2. 02Follow-upafter the visit, in your voice
  3. 03Rebookingtimed to when they are actually due

  5. 05Soft nudgeif they do not book
  6. 06Win-backif they go quiet
  7. 07Milestonesbirthdays and anniversaries

All of it in your voice, running on its own, without anyone at the desk having to remember.

Works with what you already run

Keep Vagaro. Keep Zenoti. Keep the notebook.

Plebco is not a booking system and does not want to be one.

  • Nothing moves off your current tool
  • No migration, no retraining, nothing new for your staff to learn
  • Your clients book exactly the way they always have
  • Square and Acuity connect directly. Everything else imports by file.
  • Your client list is yours. Export it any time.

If you would rather consolidate, Plebco’s booking page is free. Your call, your timeline.

Control

It sounds like you, because you tell it how

Messages go out from a real number your clients can save and reply to. Plebco drafts your first few so it learns how you actually talk, and you fix anything that is not you. After that it runs on its own.

Your voice

Tone settings, set once. Read the first few, change anything that does not sound like you.

One word ends it

A plain “stop,” or “please don’t text me” in their own words. Instant, automatic, compliance record kept.

No message fees

No per-message charges, no caps, no overage at any plan.

The things people actually ask

I already use Vagaro. Do I have to switch?
No. Plebco syncs alongside it. Vagaro handles booking and payments. Plebco handles what happens after she leaves.
My stylists each have their own clients. Does that matter?
Multi-staff routing is on the Pro tier, so messages go out attributed to the right stylist. On Starter, everything sends from one voice for the whole salon.
Does this work on a first-time client?
Yes. She gets the follow-up and the rebooking nudge on a typical interval for the service she booked. Once she has a few visits on file, Plebco works to her own interval.
What about a client who only comes twice a year?
She still gets reminders and follow-ups. Plebco needs a few visits before it can work out someone’s own interval, so until then the timing runs on a typical gap.
Will my clients know it’s automated?
Messages are written in your voice, from your tone settings, sent from a real number they can save and reply to. Plebco drafts the first few so it learns exactly how you talk.
How long does setup take?
About fifteen minutes. Import your clients, answer three questions about how you talk to people, done. Your first automated message usually goes out the same day.
What does texting cost?
Nothing extra. No per-message fees, no caps, no overage at any plan.
What happens to my client list if I leave?
It is yours. Export it any time. No contract, cancel whenever.
