Loyalty looks different in 2025. In fact, 82% of consumers<\/a> say that personalized experiences influence their loyalty to a brand. That\u2019s not just a nice-to-know \u2013 it\u2019s a loud and clear message for salons, spas, and clinics aiming to build long-term client relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loyalty isn\u2019t built at the front desk anymore. Instead, it\u2019s built in the moments in-between: a perfectly timed message, the feeling of being remembered, the ease of rebooking without saying a word. It\u2019s in the convenience, the connection, and the care you show..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our 2025 August Collection, we want to walk you through how innovative businesses are creating loyalty that lasts, powered by clever tools that do the heavy lifting behind the scenes. We\u2019ll explore what it really means to connect with clients today, and how every interaction (even the automated ones) can help you build a community, not just a client list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Curious about what your clients actually want from a premium experience, how they like to be communicated with, or why some stay loyal while others ghost? You\u2019ll want to download your copy of the Phorest Consumer Insights Report, where we\u2019ve surveyed over 2,300 clients to bring you answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deeper, More Predictable Loyalty with Memberships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Loyalty programs still have a powerful place in salon, spa, and clinic marketing\u2026 especially when they\u2019re digital, flexible, and designed to reward client behavior, not just spend. But when it comes to building deeper relationships and creating a more predictable flow of revenue, many hair and beauty businesses across North America are looking beyond traditional models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s where service-based memberships come in. Think of them as a VIP experience with built-in value, where clients sign up for a monthly plan that suits their routine (whether that\u2019s a facial every four weeks or a root touch-up on schedule). In return, they get flexibility, exclusivity, and that feeling of truly being looked after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For businesses, it\u2019s a win-win. Memberships create commitment, strengthen loyalty, and reduce last-minute gaps in your calendar. What\u2019s even better is that they offer consistency without needing to chase bookings, helping you build long-term relationships that benefit everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phorest Memberships are also fully customisable. You can build either service-based plans or credit-based plans. Choose your own billing cycle, contract length, and what\u2019s included. Your clients can buy and manage memberships online, while your team sees membership icons in the calendar for easy recognition. When it comes to marketing, you\u2019ll also have the tools to tailor offers just for members \u2013 or use filters to re-engage, reward, or promote in a smarter way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Curious what this could look like for your business? Register your interest in Memberships with Phorest here<\/a>, and start turning casual clients into loyal regulars.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connection that Feels Human (Even When Automated)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve all been there \u2013 missing a client message because it\u2019s buried under a pile of Instagram DMs, email enquiries, and voicemails. When that happens, you\u2019re not just missing messages\u2026 you\u2019re missing opportunities to rebook and reconnect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s clients expect fast, convenient communication, but they also want it to feel personal. They want a friendly, real-time exchange that respects their time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Phorest\u2019s 2-Way Chat<\/a>, every conversation is centralized, whether you\u2019re on your desktop Phorest system or using the PhorestGo app on the move. Messages are sent and received as SMS, so they reach clients directly, without relying on social media inboxes or email chains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s a quick \u201cCan I push my appointment by 10 minutes?\u201d or a first-time guest asking what to expect during their treatment, everything lands in one place. This means nothing gets lost, and one gets left hanging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2-Way SMS works because people remember how you make them feel. A fast, human response can be the difference between a missed opportunity and a loyal, returning guest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loyalty on Autopilot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you had a dollar, a booking, or a glass of prosecco for every time a client said, \u201cI meant to rebook; I just forgot.\u201d, you\u2019d probably be reading this blog from a beach in Ibiza. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set & Forget Marketing<\/a> exists for that exact reason. These clever little automations are your behind-the-scenes besties, sending birthday messages, welcome notes, rebooking nudges, and \u201cwe miss you\u201d check-ins while you focus on running your clinic, spa, or salon. Think of it as a thoughtful concierge who never takes a day off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When clients feel like you\u2019re thinking of them, they\u2019re more likely to stick around. It\u2019s not just marketing; it\u2019s relationship maintenance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Need proof? Our latest Consumer Insights Report found that clients are more likely to act on messages that feel personalised, timely, and relevant. We\u2019ve got the stats to back this up, so download the report here for the full breakdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sell Total Convenience Online<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Loyalty doesn\u2019t just come from good service; it comes from ease. The less you make your clients work to rebook, pay, or redeem, the more they\u2019ll stick around. That\u2019s why combining Digital Loyalty<\/a> with the ability to buy service packages or courses online is such a game-changer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Because convenience is the new luxury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take, for example, a client who\u2019s just been in for a facial. They meet a friend for coffee, and while waiting, they open your app, buy their next session with a tap, and use a loyalty point boost to do it. They didn\u2019t need to call, ask a question, or pull out their wallet. It\u2019s frictionless. It\u2019s future-facing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No more paper stampcards that dissolve in someone\u2019s handbag, or awkward \u201chow many do I have left?\u201d conversations at the front desk. Instead, you\u2019re offering clear, clean, confidence-building client journeys \u2013 from consultation to checkout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also neatly integrates into the booking flow, with no extra steps. Learn more about how you can implement these features, or connect better with your clients in our 2025 August Collection series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Clients Are Talking \u2013 Are You Listening?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2025, the most successful salons, spas, and clinics aren\u2019t just doing great work. They\u2019re also tuned into what their clients want and value \u2013 and they\u2019re shaping the client journey around that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to know what North American clients really think about things like booking online, receiving marketing messages, or what they consider a premium experience? We asked over 1,000 of them\u2026 and the answers may surprise you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a sneak peek\u2026 did you know that the majority of clients say they\u2019re happy to receive marketing messages \u2013 as long as they\u2019re relevant?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s your opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you understand what clients are looking for \u2013 what makes them rebook, stay loyal, or spend more \u2013 you can shape your salon, spa, or clinic\u2019s experience to match. That\u2019s where the Consumer Insights Report comes in. Packed with fresh data and helpful takeaways, it\u2019s your for making smarter, more client-led decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Download the full report here<\/a> to tap into what\u2019s really driving client loyalty this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every Message is a Moment to Build Loyalty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy to think of client loyalty as something that happens at the front desk, in the treatment room, or in the chair. However, in reality, it\u2019s built in every message you send, every reminder you automate, and every thoughtful, on-brand touchpoint in between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the right tools, staying connected doesn\u2019t mean doing more; it just means doing it smarter. From seamless memberships to timely messages and beautifully branded digital moments, Phorest helps you show up for your clients in ways that feel personal, consistent, and premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep your finger on the pulse of what today\u2019s clients expect, and explore the 2025 August Collection for more insights, tools, and inspiration. You\u2019ve already built something amazing. Let\u2019s make sure the right people see it\u2026 and that they keep coming back for more. <\/p>\n\n\n
