If you wish to have a successful business then there is no way you can ignore social media marketing. You should have a separate campaign just for online marketing. All the businesses today are online because there simply is no better way to reach the people (potential clients) in today’s digital age.
Create an App to book appointments from clients. Set up a Facebook page. Establish a Twitter account. Go an extra mile and write a blog about your salon. Make sure your business is always available on the internet. Whether your clients need to book appointments, suggestions for personal care or beauty products, maintain your online presence to answer them. Your availability will create loyal clients for you.
2. Sell On Your Uniqueness
Even among personal care services, there are certain things that only a few can do. It could be anything from a peculiar hairstyle that only your hairdresser can do or a facial that includes your personal herbal products.
Identify that extra something that your salon offers and market it to the best of your ability. Get printed on your rate card. Put it on your website. Put it on your social media pages. Put it on your app. Offer discounts on that service and soon it will be popular enough to attract people.
3. Offer Package Deals
