A done-for-you AI front desk

Never lose another lead. Never double-book an artist.

A 24/7 AI front desk that answers every message and missed call in seconds, qualifies the lead, routes it to the right artist, and books the consultation — all on one calendar, with zero extra software.

The problem

A busy shop with six artists leaks money in four places.

You're great in the chair. But the front desk never sleeps — and right now, it's costing you bookings you never even see.

1

The fastest reply wins

Leads DM at midnight. Whoever answers first books the client. You're tattooing all day — so the lead goes cold or goes to a competitor.

2

Six calendars, one mess

Juggling six artists by memory and group texts means double-bookings, "who's taking this one?", and gaps no one fills.

3

Every missed consult is real money

A custom half-sleeve runs $2,000–$6,000, with a $300+ deposit just to book it. Miss a few of those consults a month and you're not out a few hundred bucks — you're out five figures.

4

No-shows and dead leads

No reminders, no follow-up, no system that remembers the client. Booked time evaporates and warm leads never get re-tapped.

How it works

One AI front desk. Every channel. Every hour.

Meet your AI front desk — it speaks in your studio's voice, never sleeps, and turns scattered messages into booked consultations on the right artist's calendar.

1

Lead arrives

Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, your website, or a missed call — any hour.

2

Instant reply

The AI answers in seconds, 24/7, sounding like your shop — warm, human, on-brand.

3

Qualifies

Captures what they want, size & placement, budget, and timeline.

4

Routes to the artist

Matches the lead to the right artist by style or by name request.

5

Books the consult

Drops it on that artist's calendar — one system, no double-book.

6

Confirms & reminds

Auto confirmation + reminders to cut no-shows. Everything logged.

The artist dashboard

Every client becomes one living file — that fills itself in.

No spreadsheets. Nothing to remember. Click a client and their whole story opens: contact, the work, the money, every message in one place, and the personal details that turn a one-off into a regular.

Managing your team

Run all six artists like one smooth machine.

Each artist gets their own calendar and availability. The AI sends every lead to the right person automatically — and you see the whole shop from one screen. Try it: tap what a lead asks for.

The client experience

Give your clients something no other shop has.

Each client gets a private, branded link — their piece, their progress, what they've paid and still owe, and their next appointment. It makes a high-end shop feel high-end, and it drives repeat work and referrals.

Beyond booking

The whole front desk, handled.

Reviews on autopilot

Automated review requests after every appointment, so your Google rating climbs without you asking.

Content repurposing

Turn one long video into a week of Reels and TikToks to keep the funnel full.

Weekly report

A simple weekly snapshot: leads caught, consults booked, no-show rate, revenue recovered.

The honest comparison

Before the price, here's the whole market — laid out straight.

I'd rather you make the right call than a fast one. So here's exactly what every option costs and what it actually does for a shop your size. No spin — just the numbers, so you can decide what's best for Spellbound.

Industry research, 2026. Whoever answers first wins the booking — and no human team can answer every DM and call in seconds, around the clock. That's the entire point of an AI front desk.
What an AI front desk actually is

This category is new, so here's the plain version: it's not a clunky chatbot, and it's not just a calendar. It's a trained assistant that lives on your Instagram, Facebook, texts, and phone — answers like a real person in your shop's voice, qualifies the lead, and books them with the right artist. You don't run it. It runs for you.

What shops use today — real 2026 prices
Booking apps
$30–$90/mo
Booksy · Square · Vagaro

It's just a calendar. You still do everything else.

  • No AI — nothing answers your DMs or calls
  • No missed-call recovery, no lead routing
  • You're still the front desk
AI phone receptionist
$255–$1,275/mo
e.g. Smith.ai

Answers phone calls — and only phone calls.

  • Ignores Instagram & Facebook DMs — where your leads live
  • Not tattoo-specific; you set it up
  • Per-call fees stack up fast
A human front-desk hire
$3,000+/mo
One person, 40 hours

Real help — but only while they're clocked in.

  • Clocks out at close — no nights or weekends
  • Sick days, training, turnover
  • Can't be in four places, can't reply in 12 seconds at midnight
Real all-in cost runs higher than the sticker: booking apps add 2.5–2.7% on every payment plus per-artist fees; AI phone services bill per call and overage; a human hire is before payroll taxes and benefits.

Investment

Your founding-client offer.

You're one of the first three studios I'm bringing on. I want your results and your honest word — so I'm locking you in well below what every studio after you pays.

Founding rate · Spellbound

Your whole shop — all 6 artists

The complete done-for-you AI front desk, scaled across all six artists with smart routing and one owner dashboard.
$600/mo · locked 12 months
+ setup fee waived
  • 24/7 AI front desk on every channel
  • Smart routing to all 6 artists' calendars
  • One owner dashboard for the whole shop
  • Booking, reminders, reviews & reporting
  • Branded client status-page links
In exchange for a short testimonial and permission to share your results, your rate is locked at $600/mo for a full year — even as my standard rates rise.

The rates everyone else pays

So you can see exactly what kind of deal this is.
Solo artist$1,200/mo
Multi-artist studio · standard$1,600+/mo
Your founding rate · all 6 artists$600/mo
A six-artist studio normally runs $1,600+/mo. You're getting your entire team for $600 — locked, while every studio after you pays full price.
The math: one custom half-sleeve runs $2,000–$6,000. At $600/mo, a single recovered consult covers three months to nearly a year of the system — and it works 24/7 for less than a fifth of what a human front desk costs.
After you say yes

Here's exactly what happens next.

No mystery, no runaround. From the moment you say go, here's the path — and I carry the weight. You keep tattooing.

1

You say yes

Reply here or message me on Instagram. That's the whole commitment to start.

2

30-min kickoff

We map your 6 artists, their styles, availability, and your shop's voice. One call.

3

I build it

About two weeks. You keep tattooing while I set everything up behind the scenes.

4

Go live + walkthrough

I turn it on and walk you and your team through your dashboard — simple enough for a busy shop.

5

I run it for you

Weekly optimization and a plain-English report. You focus on the art.

All I need from you to start
  • Your booking channels — Instagram, Facebook, website, phone
  • Your 6 artists — their styles and weekly availability
  • Your consult process, deposit policy, and a few example replies
  • Your logo and shop colors
How payment works
  • Simple monthly billing — your founding rate of $600/mo
  • Setup fee waived, and your first payment doesn't hit until we go live
  • Rate locked for 12 months — no surprise increases
  • No long contract, no hidden fees — straightforward, month to month
Why me

Built in a real shop. Used every day.

This system runs live in a busy, working tattoo studio every single day — not a slide deck, not a beta test. You're getting a proven system from someone who tattoos for a living and knows exactly what the chair, the calendar, and the client actually need.

Lock your founding rate.

Founding pricing is limited to my first three studios — Spellbound can be one of them, at $600/mo locked. Reply here or message me on Instagram and we'll book your 15-minute kickoff. No obligation.
