01
Recommend the right moment
Askie surfaces review request opportunities based on salon-defined rules and appointment context.
Google Reviews
Turn great appointments into a reputation that brings in the next client.
Askie helps your salon request honest feedback through WhatsApp, route concerns to the right people, and respond to Google reviews with personalized drafts you approve.
Build public trust on Google. Not inside a marketplace you may outgrow.
Completed appointment to WhatsApp request to Google review to owner-approved response.
The reputation gap
Your best appointments should not disappear after checkout.
A client leaves happy. The team moves to the next appointment. The owner gets pulled into the next problem. No one asks for a review.
Marketplace platforms often push reviews toward their own listings. Those reviews may help inside the platform, but they do less for the Google presence new clients see when they search.
Askie gives your salon a repeatable way to ask, listen, respond, and build public trust where new clients compare their options.
Reputation flywheel
A repeatable loop for every completed appointment.
Askie connects the moments that usually live in separate tools: review requests, private feedback, Google reviews, and public responses.
02
Ask through WhatsApp
The salon chooses when to send a clear, human follow-up through WhatsApp.
03
Invite honest feedback
Clients can share private feedback and still keep the same path to leave a public Google review.
04
Route concerns to the right team
Critical feedback reaches the staff member who provided the last service, plus owners and managers.
05
Bring Google reviews into Askie
Recent public reviews from the salon's Google Business Profile appear inside Askie.
06
Draft thoughtful responses
Askie prepares personalized response drafts for the owner to review, edit, and approve.
Google-first reputation
Build reviews where new clients search.
When someone searches for a salon, they often look at Google before they reach your website or booking flow.
Many marketplace-first products collect reviews for the marketplace listing. Askie is designed to strengthen your public Google presence, so the reputation you build keeps working for your salon beyond any one booking platform.
Marketplace-first reviews
Useful inside the platform, but often most visible after a client has already entered that marketplace.
Google-first reviews
Visible near the moment of local discovery, when a new client is deciding which salon to trust.
WhatsApp review requests
Consistent review requests, controlled by the salon.
Askie can recommend which completed appointments are good follow-up opportunities based on your rules and recent client history. The salon stays in control: each request is approved individually.
Recommend eligible completed appointments
Approve each review request individually
Let staff initiate requests for services they completed
Avoid asking the same client too often
Send review requests through WhatsApp
Keep the public Google review path available to every client
Private feedback
Hear about concerns while there is still time to respond.
Askie gives clients a private way to tell the salon what happened, while keeping their public Google review option unchanged.
Critical feedback routes to the last service provider, owner, and relevant managers. Manager-controlled visibility and RBAC govern staff access beyond each person's own clients.
Client shares a concern
The client can explain what happened in a private WhatsApp conversation.
The right people are notified
The last service provider, owner, and relevant managers can see the issue.
The salon responds

The public review path remains fair
The client still has the same option to leave a Google review.
Google review management
Respond to Google reviews without leaving Askie.
Askie connects to your Google Business Profile and brings recent public reviews into your workspace. When a review appears, Askie can draft a personalized response that you review, edit, and approve before anything is published.

Reputation compounds when the loop keeps running.
One review request helps for a day. A repeatable review system helps every week. The reputation your team earns should keep working for your salon where new clients are already looking.

FAQ
Common questions
Does Askie automatically send a review request after every appointment?
Askie can recommend review opportunities based on your salon's rules and appointment context. The salon controls whether and when review requests are sent.
Where does Askie send review requests?
For this workflow, Askie sends the request through WhatsApp.
Can every client still leave a Google review?
Yes. The public Google review option remains available regardless of whether the client's private feedback is positive or critical.
Does Askie filter unhappy clients away from Google?
No. Private feedback is an additional way for clients to reach the salon. It is not a gate in front of public Google reviews.
Who sees critical private feedback?
Askie surfaces critical feedback to the staff member who provided the last service, plus the salon owner and relevant managers. Manager-controlled visibility and RBAC help govern access beyond a staff member's own clients.
Can staff respond to client concerns?

Does Askie connect to my Google Business Profile?
Yes. Askie integrates with the salon's Google Business Profile and can fetch recent public reviews.
Can I respond to Google reviews from Askie?
Yes. Askie brings recent Google reviews into the product and lets the business respond from Askie's interface after approval.
Does Askie write Google review responses automatically?
Askie drafts personalized responses, but the owner reviews and approves them before publishing.
Can I edit an AI-drafted response before it goes live?
Yes. Drafts can be reviewed and edited before approval.
Will Google reviews improve my local ranking?
Google reviews can contribute to trust and local visibility, along with relevance, distance, profile completeness, and other factors. Askie should not be presented as a guarantee of higher rankings.
Why prioritize Google reviews over marketplace reviews?
Google reviews are visible where many new clients search and compare local salons. Marketplace reviews may help inside the platform, but they may not strengthen the salon's public Google presence in the same way.
