Does Facebook’s advertising platform do your head in??
Trying to get your salon advertising set up on Facebook so it reaches the right people, at the right time, with the right offer can be a nightmare. So we asked our Social Media advertising guru Samantha Buckley to do a video showing exactly how to do it properly.
This video is Part 1 of a 3-part series. In Part 1, Sam explains how to ‘boost’ a post efficiently, so it ONLY reaches the people who meet certain qualifying attributes. No point wasting a brazilian waxing offer on 75-year-old grandfathers, right?
Show Notes:
- The first step – what’s your Most Wanted Response?
- Choosing an existing post
- How to choose a desired audience for that post
- Setting your advertising budget and timeline

We get a lot of inquiries and questions from salon & spa owners about whether they should hire staff, or rent out their rooms/chairs to independent stylists and therapists.
There are pros and cons for both approaches, but as I wrote in this post a couple of weeks back, you either do one, or the other, but not both. That’s a recipe for disaster.
In today’s Rich Salon Owner podcast, listen in as I discuss the issues with a genuine expert in the field of staffing and recruitment, National Salon & Spa Recruitment founder and CEO Sheryl Gardner.
Show Notes:
- The downsides of renting – for both owners and renters!
- Being in Control, or being a Landlord – it’s your choice.
- Why it’s hard to find chair or room renters.
- The big mistakes salon owners make when hiring staff.
- Why it’s messy to combine employed staff with renters.
