How we can help businesses of multiple sites

Being a salon owner isn’t an easy task. You have to overlook the business, your staff, finances, stock and many other tasks. Keeping track of every aspect of your salon business can become very time consuming and stressful. Especially if you have more than one site to handle. You can’t be at multiple places at the same time and probably spend a fair amount of time away from the salon or rushing between each site. If you are using salon software to get organised, great, but did you know here at Salon Tracker, we can support all the needs multi-site business owners have?

In general, salon software is a great addition to any hair, beauty or tanning business, whether you have one salons or a whole chain of twenty establishments. It helps you to get rid of all those excess papers and client cards and make more space for other things. All your information will be stored electronically, from info such as client records and stock control, meaning everything can be accessed in just a few clicks. Over the last year, we have made significant advances to our software that especially support multi-site salon owners. Our overall goal was to create features that can maximise business potential to those who have to manage more than one salon. From research, we have found that communications can be one of the biggest hindrances between each salon. As an owner, one of the biggest concerns is to ensure that everything is running smoothly.

But what features can salon owners use to maximise their multi-side potential? Have a look at our three main features:

HQ (Headquarters)

We have designed HQ alongside other features. It is designed for salons with multiple sites. HQ allows salon owners to link all of their sites from one main "headquarters” to oversee all of its activity in one go. This can either be an office within one of the salons, a home office or another location. HQ provides you with a separate version of Salon Tracker on a preferred computer that allows you to switch between all business sites. Meaning, salon owners have full access over booking calendars, staff, stock, marketing, reports and management. Furthermore, HQ allows you to share client data across all sites and customers benefit from stored information, meaning they wouldn’t have to register or go through a patch test again if they visit one of your other sites. Stock can be overseen for all sites and be reordered if levels are running low.

Therefore, this is the perfect solution to overlook all your sites' activity from one head office and make your life easier and stay organised.


Homeview 

Owners get a second version of Salon Tracker on any preferred PC or Laptop to use at home or on the go, meaning they can check salon activity even when they’re not present. This is possible either from home or even on holiday, as long as there is an internet connection. This feature is aimed at salon owners that spend a fair amount of time away from the salon but still want to have full insights of what is happening on a day-to-day basis. Same as with the HQ feature, stock ordering can also be done over the "Homeview" feature and furthermore, sales can be tracked without the salon owner or manager needing to be present. Reports can be exported via email and into different formats, making the administrative side much easier for owners and to stay on top of everything.


Site-View

This is a great feature for both the owner as well as the salon staff, especially when you don’t have accessed to the salon PC or Laptop. Site-view can be accessed on the go from a tablet or smartphone that has the ability to connect to the internet. You can ensure that your salon is running smoothly even when you are absent. It gives you the ability to oversee your business and monitor activities such as takings, refunds and stock management. You can also access staff performance charts to maintain authority in your absence. Site-View is an essential for those salon owners who hold multiple sites and need to split themselves between sites, especially those business owners that are constantly on the go. It allows you the opportunity to access your current business activity from your smartphone, iPad, tablet or a PC. Furthermore, your staff will get their unique log-ins to view their upcoming appointments for that week.



Overall, our features support salon owners with their time management and organisation. Now, owners don’t have to rush around and try and split their time across different locations. Multi-site features are available on our Enterprise Package for £90 + VAT a month, including other great features such as online booking for your salons and a mobile web app for your customers to book their appointments from.

If that sounds like exactly what you need then why not get in touch today for a FREE consultation & trial http://ow.ly/tWd2302mfic 
We offer a no-obligation 14-day trial period, for you to ensure that the software is right for you before signing up to anything.

We hope to hear from you soon!
