Temple of Groom

For the hair and grooming industry, January and February are notoriously difficult. After the frantic rush of November and December, client spending typically cools, and calendars begin to show gaps. Temple of Groom wanted to break this cycle. They didn’t want to just survive the winter; they wanted to maintain the momentum they built during the holidays. The challenge was finding a way to stay top-of-mind without the team spending all day on manual outreach.

Temple of Groom leveraged Engage, powered by SQUIRE AI, to transition from a single-campaign holiday strategy to a high-frequency New Year strategy. By deploying an "intelligence layer" directly into their operations, they were able to automate a variety of touchpoints—from "Happy Hour" specials to "Weekend Only" promotions.

The data shows a clear shift: while they ran single campaigns in November and December, they ramped up to 9 targeted campaigns in January and February. This consistency prevented the "seasonal slump" and drove massive attributed growth.

• $6,200 in Revenue Per Campaign: Across the winter season, every time Temple of Groom launched an automated campaign, it generated an average of over $6,200 in successful, paid revenue.
• The January Jump: By running 6 campaigns in January, they captured $24,300 in revenue—nearly doubling their performance from November.‍
• 100+ Appointments Per Campaign: On average, each campaign was responsible for filling an average of 100 chairs, ensuring that even in the slowest months of the year, the shop remained a hub of activity.

"January is usually very slow for us, but this year we were able to take advantage of the Engage AI feature and were able to remind our clients about us with quick reminders and promotions. The Engage AI Assistant helped us stay consistent with outreach and connect with clients in a more effective way. It’s made a noticeable difference in keeping our schedule more full during times that are typically quiet."
