January Promotions

[Sassy32]

I'm trying to think of some idea's for January as putting my regular advert together so need some idea's!!!! I am already planning on giving out a £5 off voucher to regular's when they book a treatment over £10 in Jan. What would appeal to you the most.....BOGOF treatments or a discount?
What are other people doing to drum up business in the New Year?

Hi Sarah!

I have also been thinking of how to make jan and feb a bit busier in the new year!

If I were you though if most of your clients are regular I wouldnt give them £5 off, I did this when I became selfemployed as a token of their loyalty but found it didnt really help.

I have bought some red favor bags and put a few chocs in and also made up some cards, thinking of things that would draw clients in but I wouldnt lose out - much!

For my regulars I am giving them:

15% off spa pedicures (january isnt a hot time for them)

Refer a friend card ( client refers a friend and recieves £5 off plus new client recieves 10% off, helps you to gain new clients!)

Free file & polish on toes when having a new set

and I am also Im making up little favor bags with an OPI polish in and putting some cards in them, I work selfemployed in a hairdressers so hoping people will buy them for stocking fillers and ill get new clients.

Bit long winded! lol but hope this helps! xx

Thank you....I run the recommend a friend scheme anyway which i find really works!!! I did think of doing a promotion on Manicures and Pedicures as think people prob won't go for these

you could send a christmas card to all your clients thanking them for their custom in 2009 and offer a January promotion that is only available to existing clients! I like the pedicure idea, maybe design a more luxurious pedicure treatment with an extra long massage??

I'm going to push the detox | fresh start treatments.

To try & increase business in Jan/Feb, we are doing a lucky dip for all clients who come in during December.

We have attached a sample to te back of the lucky dip cards & have written a letter on the back of the card.
They then have to follow the instructions on our website in order to reveal their prize. This gets them looking at our website & enables us to cultivate email addresses for email marketing in the future.

You can see the prizes if you highlight the page below the line of stars:

Every month we run a promotion aswell, just need to think about offering something in Jan.
