Introduction

The programme works on the guest's journey through the spa, from the first call to the spa door. It covers the booking: matching the treatment and the therapist, the health questions and the written confirmation. Then the arrival at the desk: the robe, the locker and a tour for first-time guests. The health questionnaire is completed seated, read in full by the therapist before the treatment and filed in confidence. The programme also covers the guest who is running late, aftercare with personal advice and a profile note, sales at the spa boutique and the bill.

The outcome

The guest arrives at the spa with the right treatment and an arrival time that keeps every booked minute, and the therapist knows their health answers before saying hello. On the way out the guest receives two pieces of personal advice and a bill read through with them, and the next visit starts from a note written that day.
