What happens after someone enquires

Every new enquiry runs the same seven-day sequence, automatically — until they book, they reply, or the week runs out. This is the call script Sophie follows — updated after our call on August 31st and waiting on your yes — every text and email word for word, and exactly what happens the moment someone books.

The call, start to finish

This is exactly what Sophie says on every new enquiry. Read it and mark up anything you want changed — nothing goes into the system until you've approved it.

01

She checks she's got the right person

Sophie“Hi, is this [name]?”
02

She says who she is and why she's calling

Sophie“Hey [name] — this is Sophie from Cornerstone Family Chiropractic. We just had you submit on one of our ads a few seconds ago. Do you recall doing that?”

If they say no:

Sophie“Oh okay — just a few seconds ago we had you submit to claim our $47 two-visit to come into the clinic. I just wanted to call you to see what pains you've been dealing with, and see what time would be best to have you come in for your visit!”

If they say yes:

Sophie“Great — and I want to book you in for a time to come meet with us. But before that, would it be okay if I asked you about your pain? What's primarily bothering you or hurting right now?”
03

She works through the pain New

Everything she's told gets written onto their file, so you're not meeting a stranger.

  • “Whereabouts is it, mainly?”
  • “How long have you been dealing with it?”
  • “Did it start with something specific — a fall, lifting something, a car accident? Or did it just come on gradually?”
  • “Does it stay in your back, or does it travel down into your leg or your arm at all?”
  • “How bad is it on a normal day, if ten's the worst?”
  • “What have you already tried for it? Have you seen anyone about it — physio, massage, your doctor?”
  • “Have you had any imaging done — an X-ray or an MRI?”
  • “And what's it actually stopping you doing? Work, sleep, picking up the kids?”
What she won't do here: she asks, she listens, she writes it down. She won't tell them what's causing it, what treatment they need, or whether they're a good candidate. All of that gets the same answer — “honestly, that's exactly what the doctor works out on your first visit.”
04

She walks them into a time

She reads your live calendar first, then narrows it in three quick steps rather than leaving it open-ended.

Sophie“Okay, that all makes sense — let's get you in. We've got a few days open this week. Does [day], [day] or [day] work best for you?”
Sophie“Perfect. And are mornings or afternoons easier for you?”
Sophie“Great — I've got [time] or [time]. Which one suits?”

She can only name days and times genuinely open on your calendar. She can't invent one, and anything you've blocked off she can't see.

05

She reads it back

Sophie“So that's [day] at [time] — want me to lock that in for you?”
06

She books it

Sophie“Perfect, let me get that locked in — one sec.”
07

She collects the $47 New

Sophie“Okay [name], you're in for [day] at [time] — I've got it in the calendar. Now, what we usually do to secure your spot is collect the $47 before the visit, just to make sure no one else takes it. Is that something we can take care of with you right now?”

If yes:

Sophie“Perfect. Whenever you're ready with the card you can say it to me and I'll pop it on your file — or if you'd prefer, I can send a link to your phone and you can complete it from there. What works best?”

If neither suits:

Sophie“No problem at all — we can also take an e-transfer. I can text you our email.”

If they'd still rather not:

Sophie“No worries at all — I'll send you the link either way. Just so you know, the spot's held rather than confirmed until it's paid, so if someone else takes that time it can go to them. No pressure.”
08

She confirms the visit New

If they paid:

Sophie“Beautiful — that's gone through, so you're officially confirmed for [day] at [time].”

If they didn't:

Sophie“No problem at all — I've still got you down for [day] at [time]. The payment link's in your confirmation — once that's done your spot's locked in properly.”

Then, either way:

Sophie“I'm sending your confirmation to your email and your phone right now, so you'll have the date and time, and our address is in there as a link you can just tap and it'll pull up in your maps.”
Sophie“We'll also send over our new patient paperwork in a link for you to complete before you come in.”
Sophie“And come in about 20 minutes before your time so we can get you checked in properly.”
09

She closes it out

Sophie“And we'll give you a quick call the day before and a text a couple of hours before, just to make sure you're still good to come in. Sound alright?”
Sophie“Perfect. Thanks so much, [name] — see you [day]. Take care.”
Two things we need from you to switch this on

1. Your online paperwork link — so Sophie can send it on the call.

2. Who processes card payments for the clinic — so the $47 goes into your account, not ours.

And when you've read it Tell us what to change — the wording, the order, the questions she asks, anything you'd add or cut. Nothing goes into the caller until you've said yes to it.

What she'll tell them if they ask

She doesn't volunteer any of this — it only comes out if the person asks. Anything not on this list, she doesn't attempt to answer.

The price

$47 total, covering both visits. Regular price $349. Once the payment link is connected, that $47 is what confirms the booking — see beat 08.

Visit one

The exam and the imaging review.

Visit two

The doctor goes through what he found, plus a decompression session.

Where you are

11 Reenders Drive, Winnipeg — Reenders Square plaza. Callback number 431-500-3231.

Insurance

“We'll go through all of that when you're in.” Nothing more.

Cost after the assessment

“Depends what the doctor finds — he'll walk you through it on the second visit. No obligation.”

What she will never do

These are hard limits in the system, not guidance she's asked to follow. She cannot go around them.

When the call doesn't go to plan

Every one of these ends with a person at the clinic picking it up, not with Sophie improvising.

Nobody picks up

She leaves a voicemail: “Hey [name], it's Sophie from Cornerstone Family Chiropractic — you submitted for our forty-seven dollar visit. Give me a call back at 431-500-3231, or just reply to the text I'm sending now.”

The calendar won't load

“Let me have someone call you straight back with times — is this the best number?” Then she ends the call. She will not guess a time.

The slot goes while they're deciding

She's handed the real alternatives and offers those. She never argues with the caller about the calendar.

Booking fails twice

“I'm having trouble with the booking system — I'll get someone to call you right back and lock it in.” It comes to the clinic as a human callback.

The sequence

Weighted to the front, because almost everyone who can be reached is reached in the first two days. Never two calls in a day after day one, and every call lands at a different hour so we're not always ringing at someone's busiest time.

Sequence ends Marked unreachable — no further contact They stay in the system with their full history. If they ever reply or book, they pick straight back up as a live patient.

The moment someone books

A booking stops the seven-day sequence dead. From that point the patient is on the reminder track instead, and the clinic gets told immediately.

On Booking confirmed what fires
Instantly
Clinic The clinic is told before the patient has hung up Their name, the appointment time and their phone number land in your Slack channel, and the front desk gets a text with the same. The booking is written into the patient's record and their file moves to Booked.

Running now

The seven-day sequence, all five calls, every text and email, the booking itself, and the instant confirmation to the patient and to your Slack.

Built, not switched on

The 72-hour / 24-hour / 2-hour reminder track, and the written call summary on each patient record. Both are ready; we want your sign-off on the wording before they start reaching your patients.

Needs you

Taking the $47 at the time of booking — blocked on your payment processor. And the online paperwork link.

The $47 — and the change you asked for

This is the one part of the system that does not yet do what you described on our call, so it's worth being exact about where it stands.

How it works today

Nothing is collected before the visit. Sophie tells them $47 covers both visits and they pay at the clinic. She is hard-blocked from asking for a card, and she refuses if one is offered.

What you asked for

The fee is paid to confirm the booking. Paid means the appointment is confirmed; unpaid means it's tentative and a paying patient can take the slot. It's what has all but ended your no-shows.

Needs your go-ahead before we build it

We can't take the payment until it runs through your processor

Money for your clinic has to land in your account, not ours, so the payment step has to be wired to whatever you already use to take card payments. Until that's connected we've deliberately left it alone rather than half-build it — a payment step that fails mid-booking loses the patient and the appointment.

Once it's connected, here's what changes: the confirmation text and email carry a payment link, the booking is marked tentative until it's paid, and it flips to confirmed the moment it clears. Sophie still never touches a card on the phone — she'd point them to the link she's just sent, and phone or e-transfer stay open as they are now.

What we need from you Who processes card payments for the clinic today — and are you happy for the booking fee to run through that? Send us that and the online paperwork link, and we'll build both into the flow together.

Three ways it can go

The seven days above are what happens when nobody picks up. The moment someone engages, the sequence changes.

If they book — at any point

Everything above stops immediately

No more chasing. They move straight onto the reminder track — confirmation, then 72 hours, 24 hours and 2 hours before. Set out in full in The moment someone books, above.

If they answer but don't book

A much lighter touch

They've already spoken to us, so seven days of chasing would be pestering. Instead:

If they reply at any point

The automation gets out of the way

A text back, a returned call, or a booking stops every scheduled message and call on the spot. Nobody receives a chasing message after they've already responded.

The rules underneath it

Guardrails that apply to every single contact.
