How Lucy & Co Hair reduced customer response time to less than 7 minutes

How Lucy & Co Hair reduced customer response time to less than 7 minutes

Company Snapshot

Founded in 2013, Lucy & Co Hair is a premium hair salon brand known for its exceptional hairdressing services, particularly its expertise in hair colouring. Lucy & Co Hair has a team of highly skilled hairdressers and colourists who are trained in the latest techniques and trends and use only the highest quality products, which has led to a loyal customer base.

The Challenge

As a hair salon, Lucy & Co Hair know the importance of building trust with their customers and ensuring they receive prompt and attentive service. They had built a good customer following, but were struggling to keep up with the volume of customer enquiries they were receiving. And with no website, they were relying on social media, email and text messages to manage enquiries and communicate with their clients.

They realised this system was not efficient! They were often slow to respond to customer queries, leading to frustration and a decline in customer satisfaction.

Increasing number of customer enquiries

The biggest challenge facing the salon was managing a high volume of enquiries from both new and existing customers. They had difficulty responding to all of them in a timely manner, which led to missed opportunities for new business and dissatisfied customers who didn’t get the attention they deserved.

Inefficient communication system

With messages coming in from various platforms, Lucy & Co Hair had no easy way to keep track of all the enquiries coming in and the ongoing conversations with their clients. This, they realised, was not an efficient system as questions, leads, and conversations were frequently being missed or forgotten.

Slow response times

Due to the number of messages and the inefficient communication system, the salon was often slow to respond to customer enquiries, leading to frustration and a decline in customer satisfaction. This began to create a negative reputation for them, and many potential customers may have been deterred from using their services.
