Hey everyone :)
I have a salon which has been open for nearly two months; I don't really have a huge clientele but the clients I do have love coming to me.
In the town I live in there is a lot of competition and around 5 Cheap discount nail bars. I want to do something different at my salon to make people want to come to me, but im out of ideas. I have tried doing weekly offers and half price treatments but im don’t know what to do next.
Any help please :)
P.s any advise for locating old posts? I cannot find my previous post's I have done.

Do you do loyalty cards, refer a friend etc?
if there are lots of "cheap discount salons" in your area where you just basically get a cheap set of nails why dont you go for the more pampering approach??offer a hand and arm massage with all manicures/gel etc and maybe do eye masks with pedicures??
these things wont cost you much, a little hand cream and re usable eye masks....and clients will feel as if they are getting a pampering rather than just their nails done xx

That's sounds like a great idea!! I would def go for the pampered approach x
I'm going to do brewed coffee, special teas and wine with certain treatments in my new salon. Know it isn't necessary but think it will make a difference. Also little extras like warm towels, I'm even thinking of having a iPad/android for them to read while having pedis with free wifi. I will be charging a premium price though.
