Is your salon business prepared for the new way? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/online-health-score\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Take this short survey to find out what your salon&#8217;s Online Health Score is and get an individual report on how you can set your salon up for success in 2021.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why does this even matter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine a client \u2014 <em>let&#8217;s call her Marie<\/em> \u2014 visits her stylist, Claire, every seven weeks for a cut and colour. Her next appointment is in a week from now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That same night, Marie&#8217;s boss calls her to say that her colleague has called in sick and won&#8217;t be able to make the big presentation in the afternoon. It&#8217;s 9:00 pm and for Marie, this means she needs to get her hair done, and fast. Her immediate reaction is to call Claire, but the salon is closed. She panics a little. She doesn&#8217;t want to take the risk of waiting until the morning to make a booking. To ease her nerves, she googles hair salons in her area and realises she now has a few options for bookings in the morning. She picks one and makes an appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This other salon now has an opportunity to turn Marie into a regular client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What Marie didn&#8217;t know is that she could also have booked online at Claire&#8217;s salon! Unfortunately, because of a lack in advertisement, Claire is now at risk of potentially losing a regular and loyal client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We see this happen thousands of times in beauty and hair salons alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9 Ways to help you&nbsp;generate salon bookings through your website<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just because you have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/features\/online-booking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online bookings<\/a> on your salon&#8217;s website, doesn&#8217;t mean people have heard about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Update your voicemail greeting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When people call and you\u2019re too busy to answer or the salon isn\u2019t open, make sure people know they can go book online. Update your voicemail greeting and make sure you add in a line about alternative ways for clients to book.&nbsp;<a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/blog\/salon-voicemail-guarantee-bookings\/\" target=\"_blank\">For more voicemail greetings tips and templates, click here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Thank you for calling [Salon \u2044 Spa Name].

Use your Facebook cover photo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Phorest gives you the ability to take salon bookings through your Facebook page, website and app. Hence, your Facebook cover photo is an effective way to tell the work that the option is available. Often, a simple <em>\u201cBook online!\u201d <\/em>does the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/blog\/online-booking-feature\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">To learn how to add a &#8220;book now&#8221;&nbsp; call-to-action button to your Facebook Page, click here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Promote your salon app on the mirror<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Graphics of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/features\/salon-booking-app\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">branded salon app<\/a> can be installed on walls, mirrors, doors, your waiting area table. Use the furniture and space in your salon to put up a sheet or photo advertising your online bookings. Cash in on clients who want to book, rebook and manage their appointments in their own time, and make the most out of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/features\/online-booking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">salon booking software<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/features\/salon-booking-app\/\" target=\"_blank\">Learn more about the benefits of the Phorest&#8217;s Salon Branded App.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Get the rebooking, but if not, advise booking online<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You should <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/blog\/reasons-value-rebooking-clients\/\" target=\"_blank\">always try to get the rebooking<\/a> when clients are paying at the front desk. However, if they don&#8217;t want to rebook on the day, take it as an opportunity to tell them about your website, online booking functionality or spa\/nail\/<a href=\"\/ca?page_id=77027\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hair salon app <\/a>and how they can book from the comfort of their home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/blog\/loyalty-rebooking-salon-clients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Find out about the one script you&#8217;ll need for rebooking clients.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Send an email or SMS to your database<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you send a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/features\/salon-marketing-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">promotional email or SMS<\/a> to clients via your salon or <a href=\"\/ca?page_id=77029\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spa software<\/a>, make sure you add a <em>&#8220;book now&#8221;<\/em> link that links back to your online salon booking software:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>It tells people that they can book online through your website.<\/li><li>It may prompt the client to book there and then.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/resources\/salon-sms-marketing-gameplan-ebook\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/07182123\/BlogBanner_SMSGameplanBook.jpg\" alt=\"salon bookings\" class=\"wp-image-31328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/07182123\/BlogBanner_SMSGameplanBook.jpg 800w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/07182123\/BlogBanner_SMSGameplanBook-300x113.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/07182123\/BlogBanner_SMSGameplanBook-768x288.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Click the image to download the ebook.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Email confirmations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if someone calls in to book, you should send them an email confirmation with the details of their appointment and a line saying<em> \u2018Did you know that you can also book online?\u2019<\/em>, and add your online booking link for future reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Make it easy to find<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If someone lands on your website, you want to make it as obvious as possible that they can book in with you online. Many salons have the functionality and promote it, but then make it virtually impossible to find. Make your <em>&#8220;Book Now&#8221;<\/em> button stand out by using a contrasting colour or putting it in the navigation bar (website menu).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Tell your customers in the salon<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It might seem really obvious, but telling your customers that they can book online when they are in the salon is one of the most effective ways to drive bookings through your website. Salons and spas who market their online bookings well always make sure to remind their customers about it, whether that\u2019s at the front desk or during the service. You can also use&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/ca\/features\/salon-crm-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">client management features on your salon software like SMS and email&nbsp;<\/a>to raise awareness and drive booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Include the URL in all of your marketing material<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Anything that you are sending out to clients \u2014 whether it\u2019s Facebook and Instagram posts or email newsletters and SMS promotions \u2014 always include your online booking link, salon&#8217;s website URL and social media icons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Listen to Phorest FM Episode 43, on which&nbsp;Alan Stewart, founder of Rainbow Room International discusses how being \u2018open\u2019 24\/7 on multiple platforms has positively impacted the growth of his business over the years:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Alan Stewart on the Importance of Online Bookings and Embracing Technology\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/0cK7FxetSS6CW9DREDJykG?si=XXgYx7eXSSi5JcMJyG4v8A&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Love these ideas?&nbsp;Got feedback?
