Did you know that a massive <a href=\"https:\/\/promo.com\/blog\/7-challenges-of-marketing-a-small-business-on-social-media-and-their-solutions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">93% of small business owners report that they struggle with social media marketing<\/a>? As a salon or spa owner, embracing the power of social media can help you attract new clients, connect with your audience, grow your brand, and fill empty spaces in your appointment book. Who doesn\u2019t want that for their business?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this blog, we\u2019re going to share some practical tips on social media marketing ideas to help your business stand out from the crowd, as well as how you can use your salon or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/industry\/spa-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spa software<\/a> to help with a number of them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>High-Quality Visuals Form the Basis of Great Social Media Marketing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When creating social media content, remember that your posts will live on feeds that are simultaneously filled with high-budget, high-quality content from other companies. Don\u2019t fall behind just because you\u2019re not focusing on your visuals! While you don\u2019t need a camera crew and professional studio to make your social posts look great, you should adhere to certain quality guidelines. Pay attention to the lighting, backgrounds, and positioning you use; whether posting photos or videos. Similarly, try to emanate the vibe of your spa business through your visual content; i.e. using relaxing music in the background of videos if you want to communicate your space as a sanctuary of serenity, or place products in front of lush foliage and greenery if you want to show that your business is a place where nature meets self-care.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/canvassaloncbus\/?g=5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Canvas Salon &amp; Skin Bar\u2019s Instagram<\/a> below for an example of high-quality imagery that really gives that premium feel!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C2fXpUbuA-n\/?g=5&amp;img_index=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"643\" src=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115603\/Canvas-1024x643.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115603\/Canvas-1024x643.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115603\/Canvas-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115603\/Canvas-768x482.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115603\/Canvas.jpg 1371w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Tip: <\/em><\/strong><em>For more information on capturing the perfect picture for social media, read our <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/blog\/guide-perfect-salon-photos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Guide to the Art of Salon Photography<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lift The Curtain: Go Behind The Scenes &amp; Show Your Brand\u2019s Personality<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With many businesses attempting to curate the perfect, polished image of themselves on social media, many consumers feel their social media feeds are full of dull, homogenous content. Because of this, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.invisionapp.com\/inside-design\/internet-lifestyle-branding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">audiences are increasingly more interested in seeing the unique, authentic personalities of the brands they love.&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes your brand unique? Is it your people? The services you provide? The outstanding experience that clients have once they enter your doors? Post content that shows this. Allow your audience to \u201cmeet the team\u201d through funny videos, capture clips showing the \u201cbehind the scenes\u201d of running of a successful salon or spa, or bring people through your daily routine in photo or video logs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating personable content like this helps humanize your brand, making clients feel more comfortable, especially when they can see the personalities and expertise of the individuals providing the services. This creates a stronger connection between you and your audience, which also boosts client loyalty and increases positive reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/studiowishsalonspa\/?g=5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cleveland\u2019s Studio Wish Salon Spa <\/a>is masterful at this, showcasing the energy, fun, and personality of their team through Instagram reels, highlights, and stories.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Share Before &amp; After Pictures for Visual Proof&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many beauty salon and spa owners underestimate the power of before and after photos, and underutilize this tool compared to hair and nail salons in the industry. Even if you\u2019re providing facials, massages, or body treatments, where the before and after images may not be as obvious as they would be in other verticals of the beauty and wellness industry, they can still be effective. Scatter these throughout your social media feeds to give visual proof of the great work you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/belvisobeauty13\/?g=5 \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16110104\/ba-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139209\" width=\"703\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16110104\/ba-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16110104\/ba-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16110104\/ba-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16110104\/ba.jpg 1376w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 703px) 100vw, 703px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Think, for example, about sharing two images of a client&#8217;s face; before vs after a deeply relaxing massage. In the first image, the client could look stressed and\/or tired, while in the second, they\u2019re smiling, relaxed, and happy with a glass of prosecco in their hand. Planning before and after images like this can be a quirky and funny way of showing just how good you are at your job, advertising to clients; \u201cyou, too could feel this good after our treatments!\u201d and showing the fun of your brands\u2019 personality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phorest makes sharing before and after photos easy, allowing you to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/features\/salon-crm-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> take and share these images to your social media accounts<\/a> right from your spa software!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Boost Engagement with Educational Content &amp; At-Home Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Add value to your social media profiles and engage more clients by sharing educational content and\/or at-home treatment tips.

As well as showcasing your brand personality and introducing your audience to the real people behind your work, providing educational content like this can help position your spa as an authority in your field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip: <\/strong>When recommending products on social media, why not link your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/features\/online-store\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Phorest online store<\/a>, letting your audience order the products you\u2019re talking about immediately?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Advertise last-minute availability on your stories with a link to book<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By announcing last-minute openings on social media, you can quickly fill empty slots in your schedule and maximise your daily bookings and revenue. While this is great for your spa, it\u2019s also great for your guests! Some clients prefer spontaneous decisions, especially when it comes to beauty and wellness treatments. They might see that you have a last-minute cancellation for a massage and decide to treat themselves, later associating your business as one that helped them de-stress and engage in self-care, even at short notice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Broadcasting last-minute availability and making it easy to book with a link straight to your spa\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/features\/online-booking\/\">online booking system<\/a>, ensures your appointment book stays full all day. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/clioskinandbody\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clio Skin &amp; Body Clinic <\/a>regularly advertises last-minute availability through Instagram stories, ensuring slots fill up quickly to reduce white space in their calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Collaborating with Local Influencers Can Help Build Your Brand<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Partnering with local wellness influencers or bloggers can help you increase your following, build a loyal audience, and increase bookings. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmi-analytics.com\/blog\/6-statistics-that-prove-the-power-of-influencer-marketing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">With 67% of people turning to influencers before making a purchase<\/a>, leveraging influencers\u2019 audiences to expand your business&#8217; online reach and brand credibility can be successful and lucrative for your business. This could include gifting or paying an influencer to visit your spa and document the experience, or gifting or paying them to review a particular treatment\/product\/service you provide. How you engage in this type of marketing will vary depending on your unique business goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CF4-l6as27t\/?hl=en&amp;img_index=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115413\/1501-1024x701.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139249\" width=\"625\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115413\/1501-1024x701.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115413\/1501-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115413\/1501-768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/16115413\/1501.jpg 1257w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to influencer marketing, remember the importance of choosing someone relatively local, meaning the majority of their followers are in your spa\u2019s catchment area and can travel easily to you for appointments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Share Client Testimonials and Success Stories<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that 52% of people search on social media when looking for a new spa or salon to visit?

To avoid any unnecessary back and forth, why not add this as a question or tick box on your pre-treatment <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/features\/digital-consultation-forms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spa consultation forms?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Run Social Media Promotions to Turn Followers Into Clients<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the major struggles many businesses face with social media is that it can be difficult to convert followers into clients. While this is not always the goal in social media marketing, running social-specific promotions can be a great way to get those followers in your door and trying treatments in real life. Run social media competitions that offer discounts, package deals, or early access to new treatments as prizes to social media followers who like, share, and follow your posts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or to boost product sales on your online store, why not set up a discount code and share it online across your socials, allowing your followers to get more \u201cbang for their buck\u201d on professional products? By blending online and in-spa\/salon promotions, you can start seeing your booking numbers increase alongside your online following.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Social Media Ads Can Help Supercharge Your Marketing Efforts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re ready to go the extra mile to make your social media marketing efforts really stand out and get the love they deserve, why not invest in social media ads? Social media ads are paid ads that can be used to target existing or potential clients according to their gender, location, interests, and other demographics. While organic posts are free and will be seen by a certain number of people, paid ads can be targeted to a larger audience, allowing you to significantly increase your reach and build hype around your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/features\/ads-manager\/\">Phorest Ads Manager<\/a> is the perfect way of running social media ads in your salon or spa, allowing you to create, publish, and analyze your campaigns from your salon software.
