Are You Attracting The Right Kind of Clients?

While many business owners may see any client as a financial gain, this isn’t always the case. It can be difficult to draw in the type of clientele that you would really like, but with some minor changes and a positive attitude, it is possible.

While many business owners may see any client as a financial gain, this isn’t always the case. It can be difficult to draw in the type of clientele that you would really like, but with some minor changes and a positive attitude, it is possible.

Set the Mood

Of course, your clients will be drawn to your salon because of your great range of services, but sometimes, what you offer may not be enough. If you aren’t getting the clients that you desire through the door, it may be time to refine your salon vibe. 

The look, feel and atmosphere of your salon is important for attracting and keeping the right kind of clients as well as elevating your business to stand out from the competition. 

Cover all Bases

Do you offer nice little extras? Going the extra mile can really pay off. 

  • Consider offering proper coffee from a machine instead of instant coffee from a jar. 
  • If you offer holistic services, it may be worthwhile offering only vegan and cruelty-free options when it comes to your services. 
  • Offer up-to-date magazines that are geared towards the interests of the clients that you want.

Decide on a Theme and Stick with It

It’s important to take the time and effort to reflect the lifestyle your clients aspire to. For example, if you want a chic salon, ensure this vibe is felt throughout, from the crockery tea and coffee served to the chair your client sits on. If you want more of a homely feel, invest in comfy couches, cushions and some home comforts such as flowers or candles. 

Dazzle with Your Window Display 

Your shop front is the ideal place to show off the personality of your salon and offer potential clients an insight into what you offer. If you’re stuck for ideas, check out Pinterest or if you have more cash to splash, consider enlisting the help of a visual merchandiser. 

It’s Worth It

It may seem like a lot of hard work, but if you want to attract the right clientele, you must take steps to up your game and make changes to your salon. Start small if it works better for you. Just know, all that you do will pay off in the long run when you have your ideal clients using your services time and time again.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
