Tattoo artists — can we talk about this real quick?

I’ve been reaching out to a bunch of artists lately, and here’s what I’ve noticed:

Most of them still have “DM to book” in their bio.

But when I sent a message?

90% didn’t even reply.

Now imagine that was a real client, ready to book, money in hand…
Gone. Just like that.

Here’s the truth: It’s not that you don’t want more bookings. You’re just too busy to sit in your DMs all day — and that’s completely fair.

But the “DM to book” method?
It’s broken. It’s costing you time, money, and clients.

That’s why I’m building automated booking systems specifically for tattoo studios — so your leads get instant replies, can book directly, and YOU can stay focused on the art.

No more chasing messages. No more missed money. Just more bookings, less stress.

If you’re an artist and you know you’re losing bookings because your system isn’t set up — hit me up. I’ll show you how this works.

Let’s make it easy for your clients to book with you 💬🗓️

💡 Here’s what actually happens when I onboard a new client: (which I'm doing tonight - lets gooo!!)

I build them a simple booking flow using Calendly + Google Calendar (no over-complicated tech).

I connect everything inside Meta Business Manager so we’re set to run ads.

I test it with a fake booking to make sure everything works.
Then… we launch.

Meta ads drive traffic straight to their booking system — and we start collecting leads + filling calendars.

No fluff. No waiting. Just a system that works.
DM me BOOKED if you’re a salon, tattoo shop, or appointment-based biz and want this set up for you.

So this was unexpected…

I recently moved to Da Nang, Vietnam — and today I randomly discovered there’s a government-backed AI centre 10 minutes from where I’m staying.

What makes that wild is… I’ve been building my own AI tools in the background — stuff that helps service-based businesses automate bookings, follow-ups, and client messaging. All the boring admin stuff that drains time and energy.

To stumble across a place like that right now, in this exact season of building — just felt like a weirdly perfect sign.

Over the next few months, I’m documenting the process of creating something real — testing it in the wild with actual businesses and sharing everything I learn here.

Whether you’re into AI, digital tools, or you run a business that relies on bookings… I think this is gonna be a fun ride.

I’m sick of having to use 50 apps and all of them having rigid limitations and not actually being built for the user. Let’s build something that actually helps people ✌️

This week I sat down with a tattoo shop owner.
They were doing great work, but had no real system behind the scenes.

We found that:
- Half of their DMs were being left unanswered
- They were relying on memory to follow up
- No rebooking or upsell strategy

I mapped out a system that I believe will book them out next month.

This is what most service-based businesses are missing.

Send me a message and I’ll map out something similar for your business.

If I ran a tattoo studio, here’s exactly how I’d stay booked every week:

1. Set up a real booking system
2. Run $10/day local ads that link directly to it
3. Automate follow-ups + rebookings

That’s what I helping my clients build 🚀

These 3 mistakes are stopping businesses from getting booked:

1. Leaving clients on seen
2. No booking system — just DM chaos
3. Zero follow-up for rebooking

I see this in tattoo shops, salons, and service-based businesses every week.

If you’re making any of these mistakes, message me — we’ll fix it.

🧠 FIRST LOOK: The AI booking system I’m building from scratch!
Here’s your first real preview of KaiBooking — the tool I’ve been quietly building behind the scenes for tattoo shops (and other appointment-based businesses).

In this walkthrough, I’m showing you:
💻 The dashboard that tracks everything
💬 Auto-responses that handle DMs instantly
🧠 AI-powered booking that fills your calendar without lifting a finger
🎯 And the real gold — a leads list of people ready to book & spend

This is still early — but it’s working.
Built to save time, automate chaos, and turn followers into customers.

🔥 If you’re interested in trying out this for free send me a DM and I’ll get in touch with you!

Last night I had a great meeting with a tattoo shop owner in Da Nang. We walked through their current client journey from first message to final booking.

They are an amazing artists but don’t have a system that can generate and book leads consistently.

We found that;
- Most clients came via walk-ins
- They relied a lot on memory to follow up
- No re-booking or upsell strategy

I mapped out a simple system that I believe will book them out for months. This is something most service based businesses are missing.

Kicking off a new chapter today! I'm re-building the Sunset Social Media website to reflect where we're headed: helping appointment based-businesses stay fully booked, without chasing leads.

If you run a tattoo shop, salon, clinic or any business where you rely on a booked out calendar.. this next chapter is built for you.

I'll be documenting the whole process. First up a meeting tonight with a tattoo shop owner to dive into what needs improvement with their booking flow.

Watch this space - it's going to be good!

From my experience, the best content is content that’s easy to make and enjoyable. If you enjoy what you do, you’ll post it. You won’t let the lack of views, or time constraints of editing stand in the way. For me personally I enjoy content that’s fun, quick to make and quick to edit. It’s funny how sometimes you’ll spend time making something you think is awesome and it fails to get views, yet something with little effort can perform so well. Test out all types of content but make sure it’s content you can make without burning out and enjoy making!
