Here are some ways for salons and spas alike to put a little MERRY in their holiday marketing. There is no better time to bring a little CHEER to your bottom line.

Deck the Halls: Determine a holiday look for your salon or spa and deck the halls! Decorate to add cheer, showcase product and service promotions, and give an overall “ho-ho-ho” to your business in your special branded way.

Be Socially Merry: Don’t forget to dress your social media “holiday theme” as well. Change the banner on your business page, create holiday themed frames for your FB and Instagram photos. Add some sparkle and cheer to every “touch point” with your clients.

Holiday Drawing: December is a great time to do an annual “Enter to Win” contest. Think of a fun give away gift that will promote cheer (as well collect valuable email addresses). A great way to start a digital relationship with your guests. 

Gift Packages: Get creative. Pull together hair and skin packages that engage your guests with fun names, pretty packaging, and wonderful bows. This season look fresh with mint and red accents!

Holiday Team Photo: Take the time to promote your team. A playful way to connect to your current and future customers, a team photo makes your team approachable. Highlight the most meaningful gift they’ve ever received.

Cozy Beverages: Offering a cozy seasonal beverage is something that costs almost nothing, yet makes a huge statement. The cost is minimal, clients love it, and the salon smells amazing! Buy cider, cocoa and tea bags in bulk to affordably offer delicious beverages to your salon guests clients.

These are just a few ideas, I’d love to know what you do to bring the holiday festive feel to your salons.
