Try Hostline on your phone.
Pick your business, and Hostline texts you the welcome your guests would get, with your business’s name on it. Open the page, call staff, add an extra. When you finish the visit, a second text asks how it went.
Samples aren’t available right now.
You can still see how a visit works, from the welcome text to the close.
See how it worksCheck your phone
- Open the text. Its link opens the page a guest of your business would get, with a sample menu and the person serving them.
- Use the page like a guest. Call staff or add an extra. Each one says what would happen in a real visit.
- Tap Finish sample visit. It stands in for your POS closing the visit, and the second text asks how it went.
Welcome to your business. Your page for this visit: hostline.app/v/… Reply HELP for help, STOP to opt out.
After you tap Finish sample visit
Thanks for visiting your business. How was your visit? hostline.app/v/… Reply STOP to opt out.
These are the texts your guests get, word for word. The menu and the staff on the sample page are Hostline’s, labeled as samples.
About the sample
Two texts, then it’s yours to decide.
- What will my phone get?
- Two texts. The welcome comes now, with a link to the sample page. The second comes only when you tap Finish sample visit on that page. Nothing else.
- Why find my business on Google?
- So the texts and the page carry its name the way your guests would see it. Hostline keeps the business you picked and its Google place, so it knows who tried the sample.
- Is the menu on the page mine?
- No. The menu or services and the staff are Hostline’s samples, labeled as samples. Once you set up, your own come from your POS.
- Does this sign me up?
- No. Your number is used for these two texts only, and the sample is deleted after 30 days. When you want Hostline, setting up takes a short form.
