What salons struggle with
Three reasons your chairs don't fill themselves.
First-time clients don't come back on cycle.
Great cut. Loved it. Re-booked "next month sometime." Eight weeks later they're on Google looking at another salon. You never got the re-engagement nudge in.
Word of mouth lives on Instagram DMs.
Your best clients tell their friends, but you never see it and never get to say thank you. The referrals happen in private and nobody gets rewarded.
The host has no idea who's a regular.
Aisha's on visit 7 with her color, but Mia's on the chair next to her. There's no "welcome back" moment, no remembered preference. The 7-visit relationship feels like the first.
One loop
Six places client signals scatter, or one profile per client.
Instagram DMs, WhatsApp groups, the paper appointment book and Google reviews you saw a week late. Informly brings what clients tell you into one place and hands each moment to the next.

Client signals scattered across your phone.
Instagram DMs about rebooking. WhatsApp from regulars. Google reviews you missed for a week. A paper appointment book.
New client gets cut, never re-books — gone
Friend referral happens, nobody gets credited
1★ Google review surfaces a week late
With Informly1 platform · 6 modules
One client profile. Booking-cycle aware.
Re-book reminders on the client's own cycle. The wallet stamp adds itself, a 5★ gets a Google review request, and a referral rewards both sides.

The booking-cycle loop
Every appointment is a 6-week loop. Informly closes it.
Two paths: what happens when a client comes back on cycle, and when they bring a friend. Both run on their own.
Aisha's on a 6-week color rhythm. Week 7 passes with no visit, so a personal "we miss you" email goes out with a $15 off code. She books before the salon down the road gets her.

Word of mouth you can see
Best client refers a friend. Both walk out with $20.
Aisha gives a 5★ chair-side rating and gets a personal share link by email. Her friend Priya books, pays, and both get $20 credit.

Review requests that name the stylist
A 5★ for Mia becomes a Google review that mentions her.
Each chair-side rating includes the stylist. After a 5★ with Mia, the client gets a review request that thanks them for their visit with Mia and links to your Google page.

Be a founding salon
We're looking for founding salons to build this with.
Informly is pre-launch. We're building it with a small group of founding salons, from single chairs to small groups, so it does what stylists actually need. If you're tired of running clients from your phone, this is the program below.
Square connects directly today, so a completed sale can add a stamp and send the survey. Booking-system integrations aren't live yet and more are on the way. Until then, the chair-side QR works next to whatever you book with, and you can import your client list.
