Your questions, covered

Get started

Yes, if that stylist has hours in the calendar. If they are off, the receptionist offers someone else or a waitlist you define.

It can explain the deposit and text a pay link if you use one. It will not invent a card form Beside does not have.

You write the greeting. Salons usually want first names and the service, not a corporate script.

Walk-ins are a shop policy. Beside handles the phone. A 'do you take walk-ins' question gets the answer you wrote.

Yes, on the blog. This page is the product for hair. Nail techs and spas have their own pages because the interruption is different.
