### Hear their name, once

When staff call the next person, their name lights up the TV and their phone at the same moment. Nobody shouts across the shop.

Example: the customer’s phone at Fade Room Barbershop.

## One Saturday, from open to close

A full shop does not have to feel like one. Here is a busy day, told from the waiting room.

- 9:00 AM

### Doors open

The Door Tablet wakes up. The TV says “Scan to join the line.”

On the screen~8 min
- 11:00 AM

### The line builds

People join from the QR code and the link in your bio. The TV shows who is next.

On the screen~18 min
- 1:00 PM

### One chair runs long

A color takes longer than planned. The wait moves on every screen before anyone asks.

On the screen~10 → ~15 min
- 3:00 PM

### The rush

Fifteen people join in one hour. Your team taps Call next, and nobody raises their voice.

On the screen~22 min
- 3:41 PM

### Maya hears her name

Her name lights up the TV and her phone at the same moment. She walks to the chair.

On the screenCalled
- 5:00 PM

### Calm again

The last name is called. Everyone was seen, and nobody asked how much longer.

On the screenNo wait

An example Saturday at an imaginary shop. Made-up numbers.

### A wait your customers can trust

The wait on the screen is an estimate. It comes from how fast your team is moving today, and it changes as the line does. When a haircut runs long, customers see the number grow, so they hear the truth from the TV instead of from you.

## A hello at the door, calm at the chair

The Door Tablet greets people and takes their name. The Staff Screen lets your team call the next person with one tap. Both read the same line as the TV.

Twelve people in the shop and not one shouted name. The TV tells the room who’s next, and every regular knows exactly how long they have.

Example: each business’s TV in its own look. Yours takes your colors and fonts.

Call the next person once and every screen follows. All of it is on every plan, Free included.

Who is called, who is next and the wait, readable from the far chair.

## Waiting room TV display for walk-in shops

A waiting room TV display shows your live walk-in line on a screen in the shop: who is next, who is being called and the current wait. NextUp Walk-in runs it from the same line as the customer's phone, the Door Tablet and the Staff Screen, so one tap to call the next person updates all of them.

What is a waiting room TV display?

A screen on the wall that shows your live walk-in line: who is next, who is being called now and about how long the wait is. NextUp Walk-in draws it from the same line your team uses, so it is never out of date.

What do I need to run a waiting room TV display?

A TV and a way to open the NextUp Walk-in TV screen on it: a streaming stick, or a native TV app where one is available. Pair it with a short code, no cables or setup project.

Does the TV call customers by name?

Yes. When staff call the next person, their name appears on the TV and on their own phone at the same moment, so nobody has to shout names across the room.

Do customers need to download an app?

No. They scan the QR code at the door, tap your link or type a name on the Door Tablet, then watch their place from their phone browser.

Can I use a tablet at the door instead of, or as well as, a TV?

Yes. The Door Tablet lets customers check themselves in, and kiosk mode clears after each customer. It reads the same line as the TV and the Staff Screen.

Can customers wait somewhere else?

Yes. Clients who opt in to notifications can wait in the car or the coffee shop next door and come back when they are called.

Will the TV look like my shop?

Yes. It wears your logo, colors and fonts, and it is built to read from the far chair.

What does the TV display cost?

Nothing extra: the line, TV and kiosk are included on every plan, Free included.

## Start with the tablet and phones you have

Add a streaming stick or a TV app when you want the big screen. The line does not change.
