What the agent takes off your hands
Books with his usual barber
Knows how long a haircut, a beard trim or grey blending takes and books without overlaps. If the barber someone wants is busy all evening, it offers another barber or tomorrow morning.
Quotes prices
Knows your price list: men’s and kids’ cuts, beard trims, shaves, packages. Answers at once, even when every barber is at a chair.
Handles walk-ins
Sees from the schedule when the next chair frees up and offers that time instead of a wait in the queue.
Reminds and reschedules
Sends a reminder the day before. If a client is running late or can’t make it, it moves the booking in the same chat, and the time goes to someone else.
Passes the tricky ones to you
If a client is unhappy, the agent does not argue or promise a redo on your behalf. The conversation goes to a person, who sees at once what it was about.
Satpayev: local context
A mining town of Ulytau Region next to Zhezkazgan, named after the academician Kanysh Satpayev.
It grew as a miners’ settlement on the Zhezkazgan copper deposit and was called Nikolsky before it was renamed.
The town lives by its underground mines, and its biggest holiday is Miners’ Day at the end of summer.
Everyone knows everyone, masters remember their clients by name, and for some services people go to neighbouring Zhezkazgan.
In Satpayev barbers know their clients by name, and clients know their shift rota a month ahead. The agent books the right day off straight away and sends a reminder the day before.

Frequently asked questions
Will the agent reply to a client in Kazakh?
Yes. If a client writes “Salem, anything free today?”, the agent understands both the Kazakh greeting and the Russian question and answers the way the client prefers.
What does the agent tell someone who wants to walk in?
Whatever your rules say. If you take walk-ins, the agent says so and suggests the quieter hours. Either way it offers the nearest free time so nobody has to wait.
Where does the agent put bookings?
Into your booking schedule or CRM if you have one connected: the agent sees when the barbers are free and books straight in. With no system, bookings and clients live in the built-in Solwees CRM.
Can the agent book a father and son or a group of friends?
Yes. Back to back with one barber or at the same time with different ones, whichever suits them. Before a toi that is common, and the agent books the whole group in one chat.
What happens if a client is unhappy with a cut?
The agent does not argue or promise anything on your behalf. The conversation goes to your front desk or the owner with its history, and the agent tells the client a person will be in touch.
