Inbound: the customer calls

Spin, yoga and HIIT spots booked by phone

"What time is spin Tuesday, and do I need to book?" is the call the desk hears forty times a week. Members get the answer from the live timetable, a spot if there's one, and a place on the waitlist if there isn't.

When it starts

A member calling about class times, booking a class, cancelling one or asking who's teaching.

What the agent does

Reads the live timetable, books or cancels the spot, adds to the waitlist, passes on changes.

What your team gets

Booked classes on the timetable and a front desk that stays on check-ins.

How it works

  1. Knows the member

    Matches the caller by phone number and confirms their name, so it can see their membership and what they're booked into.

  2. Reads the real timetable

    Times, instructor, room, and how many spots are left, from the live class schedule, not last month's printout.

  3. Books the spot

    A bike, a mat or a rack, if their membership includes the class. A class that's full gets them a place on the waitlist.

  4. Cancels inside the window

    Explains your late-cancel window and any fee in your wording, and opens the spot for the next person.

  5. Passes on changes

    A sub instructor, a moved room or a cancelled class is told to every caller until the notice is cleared.

Example call

  1. CustomerHi, what time is spin on Tuesday night, and do I have to book it?
  2. AI agentThere's spin at 6 and 7:15 on Tuesday. Both need booking, and the 6 o'clock has three bikes left. Is this Sam Gill?
  3. CustomerYep, that's me.
  4. AI agentWant one of those bikes at 6? Heads up, Jess is subbing for Andre that night.
  5. CustomerYes please, bike near the fan if possible.
  6. AI agentYou've got bike 14, right by the fan. Cancel by 2 p.m. Tuesday to avoid the late fee. I'll text you the booking.

After the call: Sam is booked on bike 14 for Tuesday's 6 o'clock spin, the class shows two bikes left, and Sam has a text with the late-cancel time.

What your team gets

  • Class spots booked and cancelled on the live timetable
  • Waitlists filled when someone cancels
  • Sub instructors and room changes passed on to callers
  • Late-cancel rules explained the same way every time
  • Fewer schedule calls at the desk during check-ins
Set up with you: The team sets up a connection to your club software for the class schedule, bookings and memberships, and loads your late-cancel window and which classes are drop-in.

Questions

Does it know if a class is full?

Yes. It reads the live spot count and offers the waitlist when a class is full.

Can it pick a specific bike or spot?

If your studio books by spot, yes. It books the one they ask for when it's free.

What if we cancel a class last minute?

Tell it once, and every caller hears about it. It can also call or text everyone booked into that class.
