Case study, late-night supper bistro

Keeping bistro private dining follow-ups out of the new-inquiry queue

With bistro private dining, the streams sort themselves. Follow-ups join their threads, and new business gets the full attention of the full form.

Where the room started

The situation before the work, in the team's own terms.

The starting point

The site gave one form to everyone: first-time visitors and customers mid-conversation about bistro private dining alike.

What was in the way

When it comes to bistro private dining, returning contacts re-entered information the team already held. Staff then matched submissions to earlier conversations before they could answer the actual question.

What we built

The follow-up route is brief by design: a reference if available, then the question. New requests continue to collect occasion, guest count and preferred evening separately, and staff can tell the streams apart at a glance.

With bistro private dining, the streams sort themselves. Follow-ups join their threads, and new business gets the full attention of the full form.

Our existing bistro private dining contacts know who they are. The site finally knows it too, and treats them accordingly.
