Brand New Salon Prom & Debs Marketing Ideas

On our second episode of #AskPhorest, Celia from The Hair Boutique asked us if we had any new and unique salon Prom & Debs marketing ideas.

As you know, on #AskPhorest, we answer each question with a video (which you can see here)

While I was working on some of these salon Prom & Debs marketing ideas, I realised that I should probably expand this into an actual full article for the Phorest Blog and provide you guys with a marketing kit for the upcoming event!

So, as mentioned in the video, we broke down the salon Prom marketing strategy into three main area: SMS, Email & Social Media

Let’s start with SMS first:

Salon Prom & Debs SMS Marketing

In the #AskPhorest episode, I highlighted the BIG opportunity you have in referral marketing. Since we know that many young ladies will be wanting to look their very best for the big night, then why not make that your marketing strategy.

There are two ways that you can go about it. Send an SMS informing young girls that they will receive bonus TreatCard points or a goodie bag if they bring a friend in with them (While the friend is there, collect her details so that you can market to her at a later date as well).

The other alternative is to focus on the mothers and build your campaign around rewarding them for bringing their daughters in for their hair and beauty treatments.

Our very own Louise from the Grow Team has put together a couple of templates that you can use to inform your clients of this opportunity:

Full DEBS ahead <<clientfirstname>>! Get stylish with a friend @SALONNAME & Fill up your Treatcard with 200 points! Book this week here <<link>>www.phore.st/

Social Media

In the video we discuss the idea of having a Prom Queen competition for your own salon. This could be a very fun, very impactful way to make a splash this Prom/Debs season.

However, if the idea of a Prom Queen isn’t for you, how about you use the weeks leading up to the BIG Day as a chance to show potential clients some possible styles that they can have. If you don’t have photos of your own work, then you could always find the answer on Google.
Here are a handful of possible Hair & Beauty photos that you can present to clients to give them a sense of inspiration (and don’t forget to incentivize them to book with you by leaving a link to your online booking in each post)
