Content Ideas for your Beauty Salon to utilize in 2023
Use Content to Increase Your Salon’s Profile & Get Clients
As a digital and content marketing specialist, I’ve helped numerous beauty and hair salons thrive in the digital landscape. In today’s digital-first environment, content is not just king, it’s the entire kingdom. With that in mind, I want to share some great content ideas tailored specifically for US beauty salons.
Before we dive in, it’s important to remember that your salon’s content strategy should be rooted in understanding your target audience and their needs. An effective strategy marries this understanding with your brand’s unique voice and offerings.
With Featheredge Media’s hyper-targeted content strategy, we guide you through this process seamlessly. Visit our homepage for more information.
Here are some simple but effective ideas you can use to create great content to promote your salons:
1. Virtual Salon Tours (Video Content)
Showcase your salon with a video tour, highlighting unique features, products, and services. According to NorthOne, video marketing significantly contributes to salon growth[1].
2. Online Bookings and How-to Guides
Promote your online booking system via your blog and social media platforms. You could create a step-by-step guide on how to make a booking, linking this to your online reservation system to make it as user-friendly as possible.
3. Client Testimonials
Share success stories or transformation stories from your clients. Positive reviews not only increase your salon’s credibility but also provide authentic content that resonates with your audience[10].
4. Show Off Your Unique “Hair” Holidays
BeautyMark Marketing suggests leveraging unique “hair” holidays for promotions[2]. For example, on “National Love Your Red Hair Day,” you could create content around red hair care tips or offer promotional deals for red-haired clients.
5. Engage with Your Audience
Engagement posts such as daily questions, polls, or Q&As can be a simple yet effective way to build connections with your clients and get insights into their preferences[3].
6. Host Online Workshops and Live Sessions
Online consultations and workshops can be an excellent way to provide value to your clients. This could be in the form of a hairstyling workshop, skincare webinar, or a Q&A session with a professional stylist[9].
7. Behind-The-Scenes Content
Create behind-the-scenes content that showcases the daily operations of your salon. This can include stylist profiles, product reviews, or sneak peeks into new services you’re launching.
8. Influencer Collaborations
Partner with local influencers for promotions, testimonials, or unique content. For example, you could invite an influencer to experience a service and then create a video or blog post about their experience.
9. Email Campaigns for Special Occasions
Leverage special occasions like Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, or the holiday season to create targeted email campaigns. This can include promotion announcements, beauty tips for the season, or exclusive offers for subscribers.
10. Featheredge Media’s Hyper-Targeted Content Plan
