How do you attract new clients to your salon every month? Effective strategies for online visibility
As a starting salon, building a client base may be your biggest challenge. Fortunately, the Internet offers a world of opportunities to succeed at this. In this blog, I share my marketing tips for attracting more clients to your salon!
How do you attract new clients to your salon?
It all starts with increasing your online visibility! You may hear this everywhere, but let's zoom in on exactly what this means. Whereas you used to rely mostly on newspaper and magazine ads, today the focus is on online marketing. Online visibility means showcasing your salon on various channels, such as your website and social media, allowing a wide audience to find you.
The power of a good website for your salon
Do you have a website for your beauty salon or hair salon? This is your first step to online visibility. It is important that your website contains relevant information that appeals to your target audience, such as your services, prices and any offers. Here at Optios, we understand how crucial it is to present your salon in an attractive way online so that you are highly visible in search results.
Thanks to good salon software you can effectively use your website as a powerful marketing tool. For example, consider the ability for customers to make reservations directly online. This makes it easier for potential clients to make an appointment without having to take the hurdle of a phone call. In this way, you help both new customers as well as existing customers to easily book an appointment through your hairdressing calendar or salon calendar.

Social media: reach more customers for your salon
Did you know that a large number of potential new clients are active on social media? Here lies a huge opportunity for your salon. Showcase what you have to offer! Share engaging posts about your services, such as nails and beauty, and use videos or photos of your treatments to attract attention. By regularly posting content and interacting with your followers, you will build stronger relationships with both new and existing clients.
Using your social media channels, you can easily use your online reservation system promote. Customers can make an appointment through your booking system with one click from your Instagram or Facebook page. This boosts visibility and brings more customers into your salon.

From online visibility to new clients in your salon
Online visibility is only the first step. Once potential clients find you, it is important that they actually take the step to visit your salon. An effective way to do this is to display prices of your services on your website. Clients can then immediately assess whether your treatments fit within their budget.
In addition, temporary deals or discount offers often work as a magnet for new customers. For example, publish regular offers on your website or social media so that people are more likely to make an appointment.
POS system for hairdressers and beauticians and other salon tools
Optios software offers extensive salon management capabilities, including POS management. This is essential for running your salon professionally and allowing customers to checkout easily and quickly after their treatment. This can help optimize your business processes, giving you more time to focus on what really matters: attracting and serving more clients.
