01 · YOUR SERVICE REALITY

What a Canadian restaurant or hotel lives every week.

The real friction we see in the dining room, at reception, and at the counter.

The phone ringing during the dinner rush

Your host is with a guest, the kitchen is calling, the phone is ringing. Ric takes the call, captures the reservation, and sends the confirmation. The guest in the room keeps all the attention.

Allergies poorly captured

The nut allergy mentioned on the phone never makes it to the kitchen. Ric asks the structured question and records the allergy on the reservation, passed to the PMS and read by the team.

Modified hours poorly communicated

Holidays, weather, special events. Ric replies with the right hours at any time, in the right language. No client arrives at a closed door.

Group requests slipping through

A corporate event for 30 deserves a real conversation. Ric captures the occasion, size, needs, and texts you. You call back with full context.

Does Ric speak to tourists in English and French?
