1. Social media influencers

Sounds familiar? If yes then it might sound like an expensive way to get new clients, it might or might not be but the truth is it's worth it single penny. If you are living in a big city then you should try to find local social media influencers, and negotiate with them by offering them incentives, this could be in the form of free vouchers, gift cards, or cash payments. A one-time successful campaign would help you kick-start your business and have a solid base of customers from the beginning.

2. Strong online presence

This applies to businesses of all types and not just beauty salons. A beauty salon business must have a strong online presence, this could be easily achievable by an easy-to-manage beauty salon management software. The landing page is the key to attracting more clients along with reviews being shared by your existing clients. It should be easy for your clients to book your services with clicks and anytime via your booking page. Place a booking button on your Facebook and Instagram pages. Be quick to respond to any query or request made by clients. Use automated SMS and email reminders and send your clients weekly newsletters, by this strategy your clients would be hooked on your business and would end up becoming your brand promoters, bringing or referring you new clients via their own circle.

3. Incentivize

According to statistics gift cards and vouchers, sales hit a staggering 140 billion n mark in 2020. People on social media or websites selling vouchers and gift cards looking for their next idea to send gifts to their loved ones would definitely love the idea of buying vouchers or gift cards from beauty salons. Not only this, you can promote your services locally by offering discount codes. You can either send discount codes to your existing clients either via email or via a social media marketing campaign.

4. Go green

Organic products are booming, the reason is obvious, people are more conscious about their health. This applies especially to the beauty industry and any business related, make a theme for your salon business to make it sound more organic, only use organic products and educate your clients about the benefits. Sell organic products as add-ons along with your standard services. Educate your staff to cross-sell organic products and motivate clients to use purely natural products to enhance their beauty. The ultimate result would be a win-win, both for your business and your customers!
