For Pottery Studios
Incoming Call...
Student
"Hi, I'm interested in a beginner wheel throwing class. Do you have any spots open?"
AI Receptionist
"Yes! We have our Tuesday evening beginner class—6 weeks, $320. Would you like to reserve your spot?"
✓ Class Booked • Beginner Wheel
You're losing students every day your classes stay unfilled. Interested beginners call while you're teaching, no-shows waste your prep time, and you can't keep up with inquiries. There's a better way.
A beginner sees your Instagram post at 10 PM, gets excited about wheel throwing, and calls. They get voicemail. By morning when you check messages, they've already booked a trial class at the studio down the street that answered.
While you're guiding a student through centering clay on the wheel, three calls come in. Trial class requests, studio access questions, kiln firing inquiries—you can't teach and answer calls at once. Students wait on hold, and you lose bookings.
You prep clay, set up the wheel, and clear your schedule for a trial session. They don't show up. You send one follow-up text that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just wasted prep time and another empty class spot.

Wednesday evening, Alex is stuck in traffic. She completely forgot about the class. You're at the studio, see the missed booking in your CRM, and mark it as "No-Show." That's it. One click. The system takes over from here—you don't have to think about what to do next.

Alex's phone rings. It's the third call from your AI. She's finally free—just finished dinner. She answers. The AI remembers their entire conversation from last week. "Hi Alex, I noticed we missed you on Wednesday. Would you like to reschedule?" Alex says yes, picks a new time, and hangs up. The calendar updates automatically. No one had to do anything.
Alex shows up for the rescheduled class. She loves it—made her first bowl. You mark it complete in your CRM. The moment you click "Complete," the system springs into action: post-class follow-up emails get queued, the full session registration form is ready to send, and membership workflows begin. All happening automatically—you're just teaching the class.
Alex just finished the class. She's walking to her car when her phone buzzes. It's a registration form from Frontdesk Forms—already filled with her name, email, and the class she just took. The AI guides her through emergency contact and waiver fields right on her phone. When she submits it, you're immediately notified. The membership onboarding begins automatically—all without you lifting a finger.

The AI answers instantly, understands the issue, creates a support ticket, and notifies the instructor. Alex doesn't have to wait for class to start or fill out forms. She just describes the problem, and it's handled.
There's an open studio session this Saturday. Alex gets notified automatically—email, text, or both, your choice. The system sends workshop announcements, event reminders, firing schedule updates, and studio news. Students stay informed without you sending individual messages. Everything happens automatically.
Three months later, Alex signs up for intermediate classes.
