I am renting a chair at a salon in town. I have virtually no clients and I know its going to take time to get going. Even though its in town they dont get many ppl walking in off the street because its very tucked away. I have been handing out cards with discounts on all round town which has so far got me one client who loved me and too loads of card to give to her friends. How else can I get more clients, I'm not too worried about money for now but being in the salon with no clients is boring as hell.
 
what about having some leaflets/flyers printed out, have a day where you and maybe a friend spent the whole day handing out to perspective clients in the town, pointing out to each where you are, have an appointment book ready, maybe offer a discount if you book a treatment then and there, if you were to dress up it would attract more attention and be more memorable as well?? not sure what theme for the dressing up, also pop yourself on gumtree, would you be able to get a banner or free standing sign made and positioned on the busier bit of town with your details, offers and maybe a wee map, or arrow pointing in the right direstion, you could put appointments not always necissary on there untill things pick up, hth xx
 
Have you/can you have a sign in the window/board advertising you?
 
My wife opened a salon in Washington, DC last year and getting started, we struggled initially to drum up business. We've had the most luck by being on consumer review sites and by segmenting content on her web page so people can find us on Google.

Just having a site won't cut it, but if write your site around how your customer will search for you, you'll be amazed at the results.

We have found it doesn't make sense to pay full price advertising costs for a half price customer. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a private message.
