You tattoo.
We run the front desk.

No. On the setup call we pick up how you talk: short or chatty, emojis or not, how you sign off. Every template is written in that voice, and you approve them before anything goes out. Clients just think you've gotten really organized.

No. Everything happens in one message thread: Telegram if you use it, plain texts if you don't. There's a simple portal if you want to see your bookings, clients and numbers, but you never have to open it.

Keep your calendar. If it can share a private calendar link (Google, Apple and Outlook all can, and most booking apps sync to Google), Qwalify reads your busy times so it never double-books you, and Qwalify bookings show up in your calendar too. If you'd rather drop a tool you're paying for, we import your client list.

Appointment texts to people who booked with you are fine. Promotional texts (holidays, flash drops, win-backs) need the client's permission, so we collect it the right way: a checkbox on your intake form and an opt-in for your existing list. STOP always works, promotional texts say how to opt out, we never text at night, and your booking line is registered with the carriers. We don't cut corners here, because a spam flag would get your number blocked.

You do. It's never shared or sold, and it's never used for anyone else's marketing. Download a full export from your portal anytime, and if you leave we delete it.

Then it doesn't go up. Every post comes to you as a draft first, and you reply 👍 or tell us what to change. Once you trust it, you can switch on autopilot.

Full books still get cancellations, and they still come with DMs, deposits, reminders and unfinished pieces. Busy artists use Qwalify to get that time back and to make sure every opening gets refilled. The waitlist is where full books earn more.

Text PAUSE, or “PAUSE until dec 3”. New texters get your away message, booked clients still get their reminders, and everything picks back up when you text RESUME or the date arrives.

Your clients get messages you've already approved, written in your voice, from your booking line. Software only sorts incoming texts (like spotting a reschedule) and drafts captions for you to approve. It never designs anything, never makes images, and never makes up a price. Prefer none of that? Switch off smart sorting and it runs on your approved templates and simple keywords only.

Yes. Texts come from “[Your name]'s booking line,” not from you pretending to be online at 2am. Anything that needs you, like a design question or an unhappy client, goes straight to your phone.

Into your own account. Clients pay through your own link (Square, Venmo, Cash App, PayPal or Stripe), tap “I've sent it,” and you confirm with one reply before the time is locked in. We never hold your money or take a cut. Don't take deposits? Switch them off and clients book straight away.

Then you don't have to. Reply CONSULT and the client gets your consult booking link (paid or free, your call), and the quote happens there. See the “Consult first” example above.

Message your assistant: “make my deposit $150”, “closed Sundays now”, “change the reminder to say bring ID”. Simple changes happen on the spot and it confirms back. Anything bigger, like a website change, goes to our team, and we answer in the same thread. You can also change everything yourself in your portal.

Your booking line: a local number registered for your business. Your personal number stays private. Clients find it through the request link in your Instagram bio, your instant reply and your site.

Your setup form, partner access to your Instagram and Google profile (we send two-minute instructions), and one reply to the carrier verification text. That's it.

Studio covers that: Google review asks, flash-day announcements, a text waitlist for walk-in days (clients text WAITLIST), and a site that says whether you're taking walk-ins. Booking tools are just one part of it.
