How do salons win back clients who stopped booking?
Upload hashed emails or phone numbers from your booking software for guests who have not visited in ninety days or longer. Win-back Mobile web placements remind them of your colorists, spa packages, or fade specialists with a limited-time rebook offer. Active regulars stay excluded so you are not discounting appointments that would have happened anyway.
Booking exports power channel ads; cold prospecting stays radius-based for new guests near your suite.
AudiencesCan color, bridal, and barber lines run separate ad personas?
Personas isolate balayage and color correction from bridal updos and barber fade specials so offers stay accurate. A med spa persona can emphasize injectable consults while a blowout bar pushes express lunchtime slots. Budget splits keep bridal season pushes from starving everyday grooming ads during slow January weeks when walk-in traffic dips.
Each persona overrides headlines, service menus, and display versus TV weights independently under one business profile.
Businesses and personasBalayage refresh this Friday
Master colorists with evening appointments near the arts district. Consults include bond treatment.
Book colorHow should salons launch social video without a production crew?
The Launch pack generates a short social video clip plus static Mobile web units from your site, stylist bios, and brand colors. Showcase a transformation reel for color personas and a clean fade montage for barber lines the same week you update portfolio photos. TV-length cutdowns extend those clips to local streaming when you want couch-side awareness.
Swap fresh portfolio shots into the ad library between seasons without rebuilding the whole campaign workflow.

Schedule trialHow tight should salon and spa geo targeting be?
Most walk-in salons fit a three-to-six-mile radius around the chair, while destination spas may draw from a wider ring if parking and transit are easy. Set one circle per suite and exclude areas where you no longer rent a chair. Mobile web and TV inventory both honor the footprint so commute-heavy suburbs do not steal budget from neighborhoods you actually serve.
Multi-chair locations add a pin per storefront with independent radii and shared prepaid wallet funding.

FAQ
Questions salons, spas, and barbershops ask before launching
Can I bring back clients who have not visited in six months?
Yes. Upload a hashed list from your booking system and enable win-back ads on Mobile web with frequency caps.
Do barbershops and med spas need different personas?
Separate personas keep fade specials away from injectable consult copy. Each service line keeps distinct creatives and an independent budget share.
What is the minimum daily budget for a salon?
Campaigns start at $10 per day. Bridal season and holiday weeks often need more, but you can pause slow days.
Does Waverunner include social video for beauty brands?
The Launch pack generates a short social reel plus static Mobile web cards from your site photos without a separate shoot.
Can suite renters target only their chair location?
Yes. Set a radius around the building address even when multiple stylists share one storefront listing.
How do I track online bookings from ads?
Tag your confirmation and thank-you pages so appointment requests count as conversions in performance reporting.
Should spas advertise on TV?
Local streaming TV can showcase package menus to nearby households while Meta stays Live for site visitors.
