AI Retention: Never Lose a Client to Neglect
68% of clients leave due to perceived indifference. AI ensures every client feels valued — automatically.
What is AI-Powered Retention?
AI retention uses data and automation to keep clients coming back. Instead of hoping clients remember to rebook, AI proactively engages them at the perfect moments.

Automated Retention Touchpoints
Personalized messages when their service cycle is due. "Your roots will start showing in 2 weeks — want to book now?"

Check satisfaction, request reviews, plant seeds for next visit. Sent 1-2 days after appointment.
Re-engage lapsed clients with compelling offers. "We miss you! Here's 20% off to welcome you back."

The ROI of AI Retention
Retention Impact
