Do i need to dance around naked?

[marioned]

I'd dance about naked, but I tell you, there's no way they'd be looking at my nails. They'd be turning away in terror!

I uses to say the same when I was a nursery teacher. I use to say I could staple a notice to a long 2"x 4" plank of wood and hit it off their head and they still wouldn't notice it.

LOL! I can just picture you sitting there with all your products around you and someone going "Do you do nails?" :lol::lol:

That has happened.

They'd be looking at all those sore patches on your fufu!

To understand people you have to watch and listen to them to see where their heads at!

I was stood in a queue at pundland two days ago. This woman walked up to the counter and asked how much something was. the man replied 'its a pound'. She then asked how much something else was 'its a pound' the man replied. She then asks the price of another item 'its a pound, everythings a pound!' she then goes 'oh ok, well how much is this then!' !!

I swear I nearly got hold of her and shook her!! She was in a POUND shop that has writing everywhere stating 'EVERYTHINGS A POUND' and on top of the THE BLOODY PRICES WERE ON THE SHELF UNDER THE ITEM SHE WAS AFTER!

You have to do everything in your power to get to these people. Try to target and tell at least ten people face to face about your salon every day. Or perhaps hire a couple of cute men to don just tuxedo trousers and a bow tie to hand out your leaflets. Tacky as it is it will turn heads. That or a couple of fireman lol!

You have to go for shock value and make sure your name is branded everywhere.

Don't ever assume people read your literature, if its always there then its part and parcel of the salon. Try changing the postors regularly and use eyecatching headlines so that they sont become complacent.

I would deffo get ur kit off!

but on a serious note, i have had some mirror stickers printed from vistaprint, you could ask if you could stick one of these in the bottom corner of the hair dressing mirrors, or even put a nice neat little flyer on the wall right next to each mirror.

EDIT: ok, i just read the rest of the posts on here, it seems you need to stick a poster on the mirror, right where their face would be, they MAY notice it then!

Ok I just checked out you website which is Fab! and yes you do need to dance round naked............... or move your nail desk downstairs for a week. Just explain to the owner that you NEED a visual for clients then get the hair staff to take it in turn to get something done like a manicure, get the smells going and massage for as long as you can - if that doesnt work i dont know what will
