Search engine optimization
People don’t search to search but they search to FIND! When consumers are searching they are doing their research about the product or the service they want. If they are searching a local service they are motivated buyers which mean there is a higher chance of customer acquisition. In order to be a top choice for your prospective client, you must show up in a search. Search engine optimization is having your website rank higher organically in search engines. It is important that you must be found when people search for the services provided by you and not only by the name of your business. You can also appear in the listing section of search engines or on the review sites over the internet. You might feel why is this important? According to the statics, 70% of the potential clients search for online reviews before trying out a new salon. If you are worried about what if a negative review comes, you absolutely don’t have to worry about it as a well-handled negative review can fetch you more clients than several positive reviews.
Email marketing
As search engine optimization opens doors for new clients email marketing helps in staying top of the mind of your existing clients. 20 % of your loyal customers know what kind of services you offer. Rest might be unaware of all the services, therefore, email is a great way to showcase all the services your salons offer. Thank you emails immediately after the client gets a service done or emails with special discounts and coupons on birthdays and anniversaries can lead to more and more client capturing. Appointment reminders, event-based emails, appointment confirmation emails and text messages also help in customer solicitation. Along with all these a loyalty programmes which deliver loyalty points on every service and these points be converted into cash on getting several services done will keep the client coming back again to the salon.
Social networking sites
Social media is very important as every salon or beauty service provider has a visual story to tell. Posting pictures of your work on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest is one way of engaging with your fans and customers online.
