What's included in the Local Presence Plan for Beauty Salons
Part of our Local Presence Plan. Six things, every month: 1. Your Google Business Profile, set up properly. We fill in and tidy your profile so it says clearly what you do, where you are and when you're open. 2. Behind-the-scenes code on your website. We add structured data (schema). It's hidden code that tells Google and AI tools your name, address, hours and services in a form they can read. 3. The same details everywhere. We check your Google Maps pin and make your name, address and phone number match across the main directories. 4. Help with reviews. You get ready-made templates for asking for reviews and replying to them, and a simple plan for getting more. We never write reviews for you. 5. A short weekly report. Every week you get the three most important fixes, in plain words. 6. One local LinkedIn post a week. We write one post a week for your business page.
For a salon, that means your treatments, team, opening hours and booking link are clear and match everywhere clients look. Doesn't include paid ads. Why fill in the form: The score shows whether a new client can find the treatment they want and book it without messaging you first.

How clients pick a salon
Google Business Profile services, photos and booking link
List each treatment as a service, link straight to booking and add recent photos of your own work. Clients scroll photos before they read anything.
Online booking and deposits
Explain any deposit rule before checkout. Surprise charges at payment lose bookings and invite complaints.
Reviews and rebooking
Ask for reviews after the appointment, never in exchange for discounts, and prompt the next booking while the client is happy.
Service pages by treatment
Each treatment gets its own page. If you also offer sunbeds or spray tans, see our page on marketing a tanning salon. If you run a tanning salon, see our guide to marketing a tanning salon. We also build salon booking pages.
Hair: cuts, colour and patch tests
Colour pages should explain the allergy alert test and how far ahead to book it.
Nails, lashes and brows
Describe products, timings and infills plainly, and name the technician who does the work.
Patch tests and aftercare pages for lash and brow treatments
Publish aftercare in writing; it answers repeat questions and gives AI tools accurate detail.
Before-and-after photos and social posts that stay within the rules
Use genuine, unfiltered photos of your own clients with written permission. The CAP Code treats misleading images as misleading advertising.
Salons in London: special treatment licences
Which treatments need a borough licence
Many London boroughs license special treatments such as massage, manicure and electrolysis under the London Local Authorities Act 1991. Check your own borough's list.
Showing your licence and therapist qualifications
List only treatments your licence covers, and show who carries them out.
Why beauty salons work with us
1. We describe treatments the way clients search for them. We use plain names, not menu jargon. 2. No over-claiming. We make no claims about results or lasting effects, and we show no before-and-after images without your sign-off. Advertising rules on cosmetic claims shape our wording. 3. Booking first. We make sure the route from your Google profile to your booking page works on a phone. 4. Honest reviews only. You get templates and a plan for asking, and we never write reviews. Why fill in the form: Free, two fields, and you'll see what a new client sees before they choose a salon.

Clear answers
Frequently asked questions
How should a UK beauty salon market itself online?
Beauty salon marketing starts with the details clients check before they book: the treatments you offer, who performs them, a price guide, availability and recent reviews. We keep those details accurate on your Google Business Profile, booking system, website and the AI tools clients ask, treatment by treatment, from colour to lashes.
Will a deposit put clients off booking online?
Some clients hesitate, so explain the policy before checkout rather than at payment. Whether to take deposits is your call. We make sure the policy reads the same on your booking system, website and Google Business Profile, so clients and AI tools never see conflicting rules about cancellations or no-shows.
Our salon is in London. Does licensing affect our marketing?
It can. Many London boroughs require a special treatment licence under the London Local Authorities Act 1991 for services such as massage, manicure or electrolysis. List only the treatments your licence covers and say who carries them out. We check your service list against what you tell us is licensed.
How should we use before-and-after photos?
Use genuine, unedited photos of your own work, with the client's written permission, and avoid filters that change the result. The CAP Code treats misleading images as misleading advertising. We help you caption each photo plainly with the treatment and the stylist, which also gives search engines and AI tools more to describe.
Do you write patch-test and aftercare pages?
Yes. Colour, lash and brow clients ask the same questions before and after every appointment. Clear written pages on allergy alert tests and aftercare save your team time on the phone, set expectations honestly and give AI tools accurate material instead of guesses. Your senior stylist checks the wording before it goes live.
We offer lots of treatments. Should all of them go on our Google profile?
List the treatments you most want to be known for, using the names clients actually search, such as gel nails, brow lamination or balayage. You can add more, but a long, untidy list makes it harder to see what you're good at. We set up your Google services and match them on your website, so clients see one clear picture.
What does the Local Presence Plan cost for a beauty salon, and what is included?
The Local Presence Plan: From £299 a month, plus £99 setup. Billing is monthly and you cancel with 30 days' notice. It covers your Google Business Profile, structured data on your website, matching business details across the main directories, review templates, a short weekly report and one local LinkedIn post a week. Paid ads are not included. Ad spend is included only in the Full AI Growth Engine, which has a 3-month minimum.
How does the Free AI Visibility Score work, where do you work, and who signs off the work?
Enter your website and work email. Your headline score shows on screen straight away, and the full scorecard and PDF unlock after you enter the code we email you. It is free, with no obligation. We work with independent businesses across the UK, including Greater London. We cannot promise a timescale or any ranking, citation or sales result. Agents draft; a named senior person signs.
