AI customer growth for dog groomers.
The version of AI customer growth that dog groomers still use a year after launch.
Appointments, reminders and pet notes handled automatically, so nobody has to put the clippers down for the phone.
Already buried in admin? We'll sort the first workflow for you :)
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*
*Illustrative, based on 9 hours a week of admin at a typical 80% automation rate. The calculator uses your own numbers.
Made for New Zealand paperwork.
Finds customers who have gone quiet and drafts a personal follow-up, timed around school terms and holidays when they are actually around.
- Four school terms a year
- Holidays Act until August 2028
- GST at 15 per cent
Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
Small team.
Real systems.
Zero fluff.

Dog groomers run their businesses unlike anyone else.
Groomers run tight appointment slots where a single no-show leaves an expensive gap in the day.
Booking confirmations and reminder texts are the simplest lever for cutting no-shows in a grooming business.
Questions dog groomers ask
What's a typical engagement length for dog groomers?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Doubled an NZ professional services firm's qualified pipeline in 90 days - no new headcount.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
