Recorded call · 0:57
Hear Alma take a real call.
A price question answered, the right stylist booked, a note passed on and a text confirmation sent, in under a minute. Belle Rive Salon is an illustrative business; the voice is the one your callers hear.
- Alma
Belle Rive Salon, this is Alma. How can I help you today?
- Caller
Hi there. I was hoping to book a haircut. Do you have anything Thursday, after five?
- Alma
Let me take a look. Thursday I have five fifteen with Sophie, or six o'clock with Daniel. Would either of those work for you?
- Caller
Six with Daniel would be perfect. And how much is it for a cut with a beard trim?
- Alma
A cut with a beard trim is fifty-five dollars, and it takes about forty-five minutes. Shall I book the two together?
- Caller
Yes, please. Oh, and could you let Daniel know I'd like the sides a bit shorter than last time?
- Alma
Of course. I've added that note for Daniel. Can I get your name, and the best number to reach you?
- Mark
Mark Beaulieu. My number is six one three... five five five... oh one nine eight.
- Alma
Thanks, Mark. You're all set: Thursday at six with Daniel, for a cut and beard trim. I'm sending you a text confirmation now, and you'll get a reminder the day before. Anything else I can help with?
- Mark
No, that's everything. Thanks so much.
- Alma
My pleasure, Mark. See you Thursday!

What you receive
Your own Alma,
ready in a day.
Every demo is built for one business. Here is what lands in your inbox, shown for an example business, Belle Rive Salon.
- 01
A phone number that answers as your business
Alma greets callers by your business name, in your languages, on a number reserved for you. Call it, text it, forward to it.
- 02
A knowledge base built from your website
Your hours, services, prices and policies, read from what you already publish, then checked by our team before you get the number.
- 03
Three calls to try, chosen for your industry
Not "hello, are you real?". A booking, an emergency, a question from your own price list, so you hear the range in ten minutes.
Belle Rive Salon is an example. Your demo carries your name, your services and your rules. Our team reviews every setup before it goes live, usually within one business day.
WHAT MISSED CALLS COST
What are missed calls
costing you?
Put in your own numbers. The whole calculation stays on the page and every assumption is named, because this is an estimate and not a measurement.
We have no measured booking rate to give you, and nobody has one for your business. 20% is a cautious place to start. A missed call is not always a customer: it can be a supplier, a wrong number, or someone who already booked elsewhere. Put in your own figure.
WHAT THOSE CALLS COULD BE WORTH
about CAD 16,600
a year, first visits only
A MONTH
about CAD 1,390BOOKINGS A WEEK
1.68 missed calls a week x 20% = 1.6 bookings a week, at CAD 200 each, over 52 weeks. Visits per customer: 1.
Answering those calls is about 46 minutes a month, at 80 seconds per answered call, which is our average on the calls we measured.
The formula: missed calls x booking rate x 52 weeks x job value x visits per customer.
An estimate, not a promise. What you actually recover depends on who is calling, what is free in your calendar and how you follow up. The whole calculation runs in your browser: nothing you type is stored, sent to us, or added to your demo request.
