Utilising your xmas profit for New Year budgets


I think we’d all agree that January is the longest month of every year. It’s cold, we’re all running low on funds and the one thing we’ve been looking forward to all year is over -(Christmas). So how about we make your January a little more exciting this year and give you a rundown of how you can take a little of Decembers joy with you into dull January!

I’m sure you’re all aware that December is booming with appointment after appointment meaning your revenue is more than likely double your average month! Yet once all the festivities are out of the way and everyone sinks back into reality it might almost appear like a ghostl town in the Salon. Well I’m about to tell you how you can turn that around by investing the extra profit from the run up to Christmas in all the right ways.

Send a simple Happy New Year text to all your clients!

Show your customers some love with a text on New Years day, not only will this bring a smile to their face but also remind them of your Salon and push them to book in. A little offer wouldn’t harm either, whether it be a small or big one!

Nothing beats a bargain to cure the January blues

The good news is that from all the extra profit made in December, you have room to give or take a little bit in January. Hold some offers that will draw your current clients and new clients in to keep you and your staff busy in the quiet couple of months. For example 30% off any retail product on the day of appointment.

Spread some festive cheer

For everyone that visits in December and spends over £30 for example, give them a voucher with their receipt for something like 10% off in January to keep them coming in. You might not be getting your maximum profit here but you’re going to need all the appointments you can get in January! Plus, what you earned in December can account for this.

Invest it

Is your Salon looking tired and dull? The New Year is the perfect opportunity to fix that! Treat your Salon to a makeover, have something to show for the profit you made over xmas. It’ll be much more rewarding when you have something to show for all the hard work you and your staff put in over the festive period.

Give your staff that well-deserved promotion

Have some staff that you really appreciate and feel they deserve a promotion? The new year is a perfect opportunity to give them that. Even if it’s just a little one, a promotion is a massive motivator for your staff which will increase the quality of their work and their loyalty to you!

And that’s how you can make the most out of your Festive profits this year… spend wisely!

Have a lovely Christmas and a very happy new year!
