What Janine does for a tattoo studio

A real call: Janine as “Black Lotus Tattoo Studio”

From our script test suite, September 2026. The caller’s lines were played by a scripted tester; every line from Janine is exactly what she generated. Outcome: she booked the job. Quality score 5 of 5 from the same grader that scores every live call.

JanineBlack Lotus Tattoo Studio, Janine speaking — how can I help?
CallerHi, yeah, I'd like to book in for a tattoo consultation, please. Would you have anything available next week?
JanineRight, brilliant. What's the rough idea you're thinking of?
CallerOh, nothing too complicated — just a small design on my forearm. I'm still working out the details, so I thought a consultation would be the best place to start.
JanineThat's exactly what a consultation's for. Do you have a preference for black and grey, or colour?
CallerI'm thinking black and grey, yeah. Keep it simple and timeless, you know?
JaninePerfect. Do you have a preference for which artist you'd like to see, or are you happy with whoever's available?
CallerI'm happy with whoever's available, no preference really. Just whoever can fit me in soonest.
JanineGreat. The soonest I've got is tomorrow at 12 o'clock with Rae. Does that work for you?
CallerTomorrow at 12 — yeah, that works, but would you have anything in the morning instead? I'd prefer an earlier slot if possible.
JanineTomorrow morning isn't available, I'm afraid. The earliest I can do is 12 o'clock with Rae. Would that suit you?
CallerYeah, that's fine, no problem. I'll take the 12 o'clock tomorrow with Rae then.
JanineLovely. What's your name?
CallerIt's Gemma Reid.
JanineThanks. Just to confirm — that's Gemma Reid, consultation tomorrow Sunday 20 September at 12 o'clock with Rae, black and grey small design on your forearm. The consultation is free and lasts about 20 minutes. There's a £50 deposit to secure it, which comes off the final price. You'll need photo ID showing you're 18 or over — we can't tattoo anyone under 18 even with a parent. Is there anything the team should know?
CallerNo, that all sounds good. Just to confirm — is that deposit payable today over the phone, or when I come in tomorrow?
JanineThe deposit's by card link — I'll send that over with your confirmation text. You can sort it whenever suits you before tomorrow.
CallerPerfect, that works for me. Cheers, Janine.
JanineI'll text the confirmation to the number you're calling from. You're all booked, Gemma — Rae will see you tomorrow at 12. Bye for now.

Questions tattoo studios ask before signing up

How much does an AI receptionist cost for tattoo studios?

£79 a month including 300 call minutes, then 15p a minute. Setup is £149, waived for the first five founder customers. There is no contract and no per-seat pricing; one price covers every call to your number.

Do tattoo studios have to change their phone number to use Ring Janine?

No. You keep your number and divert it to Janine only when you don't answer, using one dial code that works on every UK network. Callers ring the number on your van, your website and Google, and Janine picks up on ring five if you can't.

What does Janine actually say when someone rings a tattoo studio?

She answers as your business by name, finds out what the caller needs, takes the name and booking details, offers a slot from your real availability, reads the details back and texts the confirmation. The transcript on this page is a genuine call.

Does Janine quote prices for tattoo studios?

Only the prices you give her. She never invents a figure: if something is not on your price list she says the office will confirm and takes a message. Call-out and fixed prices are quoted with what they cover, so a caller never hears a number on its own.

How does Janine handle emergencies for tattoo studios?

Urgent jobs get the nearest slot today. If nobody is free she says so plainly, puts the caller through to your mobile, and if you can't pick up she takes the details and texts you straight away.

Can I hear Janine before I sign up?

Yes. Ring the demo line on 07360 266999, say "tattoo" when she asks which business to be, and have a normal conversation. Nothing is stored except the demo transcript.
