Salon iQ Client Selections Webinar 29.01.2018
Our first webinar was a huge success and thank everyone who was able to join us.
What we discussed in the webinar today:
Client Selections really is simple and a great salon business tool to use on a regular basis.
As we have said before, selecting the right clients when sending your emails is key and really will make a difference to the results you get back from your SMS and e-blasts.
Even if you do not have any mail outs or SMS blasts planned, still take 30 minutes or so choosing certain filters to check the client count. You will be surprised at the results.
Salon iQ Chat Feed from the Webinar
Q: Database question how do we clean up clients that haven’t been for a really long time and how to merge duplicate clients?
A: Great question! I recommend using ‘Client Archiving’ (Main Menu > Settings > Global Settings) this will automatically archive clients who have not returned to the salon in 12 months for example. This will help clear up your database of non-returning clients.
To merge duplicate clients, go to the client screen and select either ’email duplicates’ or ‘mobile duplicates’ from the pull down box. This will load all clients with duplicate details.
Tick merge, tick base client and merge button along the top to merge. This will then merge the two client cards into one.
Q: We are a new salon. What’s the cut off where emails are more cost effective than texts?
A: A general rule of thumb is statistically more people will read an SMS than an Email – I would use SMS to contact lost clients, and use Emails to for News Letters & Promotions.
Don’t forget the next webinar on Monday 5th February will be focused on Email blasts and the benefits of using it.
Q: How long can your text messages be?
A: A standard SMS message is 160 characters, this is charged at 7p. Once you go above 160 characters it will be charged for every additional 160 characters you use for example: 160 characters = 7p 320 characters = 14p
Q: Email or text? What’s better?
A: This is very subjective, both work very well in different ways, however statistically more people read an SMS than an Email. It also depends on which client information you have more of
