I have owned a beauty salon for just under 2 years now and I can happily say that it's doing really well but like everything it could always be better. The one thing we struggle with the most in our salon is being able to answer the phone all the time due to being so busy. If we are all in treatment we don't leave our client to answer the phone as we personally feel this looks unprofessional and potentially means we could end up running over for the rest of the day. We are obviously aware that we are missing out on future bookings by not doing this. We do have an answer machine message which some people don't like to use. We also have online booking as well as social media like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and finally we also have an email address.
I would just like to get some advice on how other salons get around this as I'm sure I'm not the only one who struggles with this. We are only a small salon I have a business partner and we have 1 other therapist working for us, we aren't really in a position to be taking on a receptionist at the moment as I know this would be a lot of people's response to this it's something we would love for the future but right now we aren't able to.
I would really appreciate anyone's feedback and advice.
