Write up a press release and stop by the local newspaper. Also hand out flyers that includes a discount for the first visit.I need tips on getting a clientel for a salon..?
hAVE A GRAND OPENING DAY,OFFER FREE THINGS SUCH AS SHAMPOO
Word of mouth is your best advertisment.
Go to special events, like bridal shows, women's trade shows, home shows, things like that which are mostly at convention centers and start giving free facials and manicures away to people who are really interested. Give brochures and business cards away to those who might be interested.
If they come, great, and ask them to help promote you to their friends. Offer great packages to these first clients as incentives and keep getting your name out there, that's when people come.
Business cards, pass them out wherever you go. You can create them yourself on your computer.
i went through the same thing only difference was that there was a shop on every corner so it was too much competition...what you can do is always have your nails done and then when some complements you on them that's one way you can strick up a conversation....second have plenty of business cards on you at all times so whenever you go out to eat or to another establishment you can leave your card on the table....i usually leave a couple on the resturant table as well in the womens bathroom....third is word of mouth(i know this may sound crazy but)you may need to do some freebies or discounts for your first time customers and then tell them that if they refer so many ppl then they will get a free service, product or discount when they come in again....hope this helps
