Hi guys,
Well the first week at my new salon went quite well with each day bringing a little more clientel than the last and our appointment book isn't looking too bad for next week either!
I'm getting to grips with which days are going to be busy and which are going to be a little harder to get some clientel in.
Tuesday in particular was dead and this Tuesday isn't looking too good either! The idea is to make Tuesdays our pensioners day. Our salon is located in an area where this type of clientel is quite rife, however they all seem too jump on the bus and head to the next town to use a salon which is nigh on 4-5 miles away.
I can understand this as the town were we are isn't very big and there isn't very many shops and with pensioners getting a free bus service it doesn't cost them anything to hop on, ride to the next town and spend a day out there, getting their hair done and visiting the shopping centre.
Does anyone have any advice on how to try and attract pensioners? The advertising methods which we are currently doing don't really seem to reach them because they don't use facebook or the internet.
The bus stop which they use is directly across the street from us and they know we are there! I've put a price list up in the bus stop but we're still not having any luck!
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks
Craig
