What he worked out while you were busy

  1. 1
    Gel, acrylic, BIAB or a plain manicure? Each one is a different price and a different slot length.
  2. 2
    Full set, or an infill? Infills are half the time. Book them as a full set and your whole day slips.
  3. 3
    Have you got anything on now that needs soaking off? The half-hour nobody tells you about until they sit down.
  4. 4
    Is it for a wedding or a holiday? Big occasions mean bigger bookings — and someone who'll book again.

Then he quoted it off your price list, checked your diary and booked it. Typical: £35 gel, £45 full set of acrylics.

Rules for nail techs

Always ask if there's anything to soak off
2 hours for a full set with removal

Switch things on and off. If a job falls outside the rules, Alfie asks you instead of guessing.

Takes about ten minutes. After that, he just gets on with it.

Straight answers

Questions nail techs ask us

Does he know the difference between BIAB and gel?

Yes, and acrylic, and an infill, and a soak-off. He books the right slot length for each, so a two-hour job never lands in a one-hour gap.

Will he remember to ask about removals?

Always. The soak-off is the half-hour that quietly wrecks a nail tech's day when nobody asked about it. Alfie asks about it on every single booking.

What about clients who don't turn up?

He sends a reminder the day before and the morning of, and takes a deposit if you want one. If they cancel, the slot goes back out.

Will customers know it's not a real person?

Alfie's polite, quick and speaks like a normal human — most people just think they got through to a very on-the-ball receptionist. If someone asks outright, he's honest about it. And if a call needs you, he'll put it through or take a message.

How long does setting up actually take?

About ten minutes. Pick your trade, enter your prices and hours, paste one line of code on your site (or send it to whoever built it). Most people are live the same day.

Do I need to give card details for the trial?

No. Fourteen days free, nothing to enter upfront. If Alfie's not earning his keep, walk away and you'll never hear from us again.

Not just nail techs

Alfie works for 16 trades

He knows what a customer asks a plumber, and what they ask a barber — and they're not the same.
