6 templates for Las Vegas
1. Restaurants — Rave, special occasion
Review
"Booked for our anniversary and the whole night landed. The burrata was outstanding and Sofia looked after us all evening. (Summerlin)"
Reply
"Hi Priya — an anniversary night that lands makes ours too. I'll pass the burrata note to the pass and the Sofia note to Sofia herself. We are a Summerlin business first and we would rather hear this from you than from someone repeating it across Las Vegas. — Sam, owner"
2. Hair salons — Colour miss
Review
"Asked for ash blonde and came out brassy. (Arts District)"
Reply
"Hi Alex — brassy when you asked for ash means the toner was wrong for your base. That is a correction we do free, not a redo you pay for. We are a Arts District business first and we would rather hear this from you than from someone repeating it across Las Vegas. — Sam, owner"
3. Plumbers — Repeat visit
Review
"Third visit for the same leak. (Henderson)"
Reply
"Hi Nadia — a third visit for one leak means we treated the symptom twice. The next visit is at our cost and a senior engineer takes it. We are a Henderson business first and we would rather hear this from you than from someone repeating it across Las Vegas. — Sam, owner"
4. Auto repair garages — Time off the road
Review
"Car was in for nine days for a clutch. (Summerlin)"
Reply
"Hi Chris — nine days for a clutch usually means we were waiting on a part and did not tell you. That silence is the actual complaint here. We are a Summerlin business first and we would rather hear this from you than from someone repeating it across Las Vegas. — Sam, owner"
5. Gyms and studios — Results
Review
"Down 12kg in five months with their coaching. (Arts District)"
Reply
"Hi Maya — twelve kilos over five months is consistency, and consistency is the hard part. The coaching only works because you turned up. We are a Arts District business first and we would rather hear this from you than from someone repeating it across Las Vegas. — Sam, owner"
6. HVAC and heating — Repair vs replace
Review
"Felt pushed toward a whole new system. (Henderson)"
Reply
"Hi Jordan — a repair-or-replace conversation should end with the numbers for both options in writing. If it did not, that is a training issue on our side. We are a Henderson business first and we would rather hear this from you than from someone repeating it across Las Vegas. — Sam, owner"
