Frequently Asked Questions

How much time should I spend on salon marketing each week?

Most successful salon owners spend 2-3 hours per week on marketing. Break this into 30-minute daily tasks: Monday for planning, Tuesday and Thursday for social media posts, Wednesday for responding to reviews, and Friday for a rebooking email or promotion. Tools like Local Brand Hub can reduce this to under an hour by automating repetitive tasks.

What is the most important marketing channel for salons?

Google Business Profile is the single most important channel because it captures clients actively searching for salon services nearby. Combine this with a consistent Instagram presence and a referral programme, and you cover discovery, engagement, and word-of-mouth — the three pillars of salon client acquisition.
