5 Ideas To Increase Your Customer In Beauty Parlour

Hi Friends,
As I promised, I am back with lots of great ideas on retaining customers in this blog.

1) Cleanliness: yes it looks odd that we are talking about Cleanliness. These days people are hygiene  Conscious. Specially ladies they choose hygienic environment. And above all Our PM Mr. Modi put lots off efforts in bringing Cleanliness: Swacch-Bharat Abhiyan. Keep neat and clean towels in Parlour. Don't leave hair-cut or such wastes here and there. Wash your hands every time you start a new service.

2) Keep talking: try to bridge the gap. Establish communication with your customers. Ask about their daily house hold things and schedule. Let them feel as you are treating them personally. So keep talking. But no loose talks please.

3) Polite Behaviour: asking someone "what you want?" and "How may! I assist you please?" Is the real differentiator. Reply their questions politely. They should feel as if they are touched with you replies. Ultimately, they are the one who makes your wallet feel happy.

4) Ease of payment: Bring the ease of payment to your customers by opting electronic  wallet payments. These days Paytm, Mobiquick, Airtel money, freecharge, oxygen, JioMoney and long list are available. So give them the comfort of making payment. Most of these e-wallets give cash back offers so let your customers avail this.

5) Love your work: It's your business. And any business is your brain child. You should nurture your start-up the way you plant a tree and water it daily to enjoy fruit. Love your customers, love your work. Let them feel how special they are to you. All the time you are doing some service like hair-cut, facial or wax. You should be with them mentally as well. Try to bring the comfirt to them in all possible manners with your limited resources.

After running successful Parlour for years, here I am listing few of my experience. These are tried and tested and many of my friends are running there so called small start-up successfully.
# Plan B: proper planning is the key to success. But always remember any plan can not go till end, the way it was planned initially. So you must have a Plan B.

#Costing/Budget: you should estimate an affordable budget. Do not include all the resources in your Buy-list. Buying the equipments should go as per the time and savings you have from your business.

# Lucrative Offers: add few lucrative offers in your services list that will help you bind your customers.

# Behavioural changes: act wise and provide smart comprehensive answers to your customer's query. True, there may be some irrelevant questions too. But be calm and answer politely. Reason why, they are the one who brings happiness to your wallet,right?

# Location: Choose your location carefully. Identify your niche. The Parlour location should be nearby residential area. It must have some parking area too, as most of the ladies have scooty these days. The area should not be over crowded too.

Here I am going to list few things that should be take care by Salon owner. And trust me these are tricks of the trade:-

Improve Customer Service Through Paytm

Instead of taking cash and letting the customer go just because he/she doesn’t know how to pay through Paytm, swipe a card or pay via Paytm wallet, as you are an expert in using Paytm’s payment methods be it paying via QR, via Paytm wallet or Paytm gateway using a card etc so here you should take the initiative to teach the person about using digital payments.

Not only this will resolve your issues with settling cash or giving change but imagine what a wonderful impact it will leave on the mind of your customer as he/she would appreciate the fact that you took your time out to teach them something new which will benefit them in the near future. With such an experience you will earn a loyal customer and also gain more customers from the good words of mouth.

Grow Your Customer Base Through Paytm

To make your customer feel good, you can follow some of these key points:

• Try to remember names of your customer, every time they walk in wish them using their first or last name
• Help them in selecting products based on their past purchases
• Get assistance to people who need help like an elderly person, pregnant women, someone with special needs etc
• Providing discounts based on your policy
• Acknowledging special occasions in their lives, such as birthdays, with freebie offers as per policy
• Speeding up the payment process

Growing Customer Base Through Facebook

Make use of social media

From online customer service to using social media to get insights into your audience, there are now excellent opportunities for businesses to reach out via Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and other networks. 

Play to your strengths

It’s definitely worth testing a range of marketing approaches and seeing what works. But remember that every business is different, so you may find that some approaches don’t work. Don’t be afraid to drop these.

Think big

Our success with clients goes back to developing a network of long-term connections. But small businesses now have more opportunities to work with big clients. I think that’s changed since the credit crunch. Big corporate may have been suspicious of smaller businesses in the past but they now recognize that they offer value and have lower costs too. There is less prejudice now.

Growing Your Customer Base

                                  

Every small business is different and has it’s own unique challenges when it comes to reaching new customers and achieving growth. Here are several approaches to consider when looking to grow your customer base.

Content marketing Content marketing is quickly outpacing paid advertising as customers’ preferred method for learning about products and companies.There’s good reason for content marketing’s growing popularity, particularly in the business-to-business  community. For small businesses, content marketing generates leads, boosts sales, and builds brand loyalty. 

Customer Feedback

Most customers give feedback with the best intentions in mind. A recently-released survey shows 70 percent of customers want to help companies improve the products they build and carry.

Investing in CRM (Customer Relationship Management )

The new lead information your CRM contains has never been more valuable. This tool can tell you whom you’ve reached out to, when and how often, and which products they’ve expressed interest in. The right CRM will provide your sales team a tremendous head start in meeting customer’s short- and long-term needs.

Be accessible

Encourage your employees to be responsive online, on the phone, and in person. If you can, offer a live chat service on your company’s website, which will give customers instant access to the information they’re seeking. Stay plugged in to your social media channels, too.
