Tips for Success
Do a soft launch with friends and family 1-2 weeks before the public opening to iron out kinks.
Get your Google Business Profile verified before opening day, it takes time but is essential for local search.
Set up online booking from day one. New clients expect to book online, and it saves you from answering the phone during services.
Take professional photos of your space before clients start coming in, you will use these everywhere.
