CUSTOMER BOOKINGS · Workflow idea

Make service information and reservations easier while keeping customers in control.

For a business using an approved customer messaging channel, answer routine questions from current service information and help a customer request an available reservation time. Verify dates, time zones, service details, and availability before confirming; collect only information needed to complete the booking. Get the customer’s consent for follow-up messages, route uncertain or sensitive requests to staff, and make no reservation or change without clear confirmation.
