This is why Zenoti is trusted by the best. Discover why Ruffians, an award-winning UK barber and mens grooming products store, chose Zenoti. Ruffians partnered with Zenoti for their all-in-one cloud-based solution that would help them take their brand to the next level and rocket launch their business. “Zenoti is so much more than just a booking system. It's analytics, stock management, intelligent marketing, and lots more,” says Andrew Cannon, Ruffians' Co-Founder.

Ruffians’ Goals

Unifying their five separate databases into one central location, implementing strong self-service booking technology and a proven integrated payment system were among Ruffians' top priorities for driving growth and revenue. Their existing mobile and self-service features were basic and not user-friendly, which was leading to inconsistent guest experiences and limiting revenue growth capabilities for both the business and their barbers. Finally, Ruffians needed a flexible, intelligent solution that would enable them to elevate customer service so that, no matter which location the customer decided to visit, the Ruffians' team would have access to their notes and visit history to provide the best experience possible. “We wanted a cloud platform that integrated all our bases together so we could manage it from one site. I wanted to see it at head office and look at the minute detail and let the team take care of the customer service element,” says Andrew.

How Zenoti Surpassed Their Goals

With Zenoti’s all-in-one salon management software, Ruffians automated the little things to streamline staff workflows and cut down on front desk duties. This gave them more time to manage the big picture, strategically grow the business and elevate customer service. Ruffians’ customers can now effortlessly engage with the brand through online booking and automated check-ins and can quickly book appointments with their favorite barber at their convenience. At a time where credit card payments are preferred and often required, the Zenoti Payments feature also offers the Ruffians team a seamless payment integration that includes tip prompting and multi-channel payment experiences. “Integration day was fantastic. We went to bed and woke up the next morning and the whole system was ready. Instead of five separate centres, it was one big centre with all our databases on there and all client data cleaned up,” says Andrew. https://zenoti.wistia.com/medias/be5vub81yo

The Results

Ruffians average ticket value increased by 26% and 91% of their guests are now booking 12 days in advance with 84% of guests who use self-service booking using it again. “Zenoti gives us flexibility to grow as a company. It was a breath of fresh air,” says Andrew.
