We've all been there. Trying to book a new fitness class, tickets to see our favorite band, or maybe even a styling consultation at a retail store. We want it to be quick and easy. Instead, the process is clunky, there are way too many steps, and sometimes we get so annoyed that we just give up. Now, it's not just frustrating for us customers. Businesses (especially those smaller ones looking to grow) feel the pain, too. But what if there was a way to fix all that? Well, we've got some good news for all you small business owners out there: there is, indeed, a better way to handle the booking process. Here’s a complete lowdown on how to do just that. Benefits of Streamlined Booking Systems An online booking system is a digital tool that lets your customers book appointments, tickets, or services online, without the added stress of those long phone calls or those back-and-forth emails.

When it comes to successfully running any business, most roads lead to customer satisfaction. This is even more true for small businesses. When your business runs well, your customers and clients are usually happy. When things get bumpy, customer satisfaction tends to drop. In many ways, customer satisfaction is a great way to measure how well your business is doing—no matter how complex your operations become. It's really that simple. But as you already know, “simple” doesn’t necessarily mean “easy. ”  The good news? There is a single solution that can fix multiple issues, make your customers happier, and help your business grow. That one thing is user-friendly booking software. It’s a powerful way to turn many common customer complaints into positive customer experiences—instantly. What does user-friendly really mean? If you’re unfamiliar with the term “user-friendly,” don’t worry. You don’t need to be a computer expert to understand what it means. Simply put, websites or software are user-friendly when they are easy to use. They feel simple—and getting things done is intuitive. You can quickly accomplish what you need to do without a lot of guesswork. Put another way, have you ever visited a website and found it difficult to use? Maybe the design made it feel confusing. Or the language and instructions weren’t clear. Whatever the reason, you had to struggle to do what you went to the site for in the first place. All of this is the OPPOSITE of what it means to be “user-friendly. ” Fact...

What Is SMS Marketing? SMS marketing, or text marketing, is the abbreviated term for short message service marketing. It is a digital marketing tool consisting of bulk text messaging that can be used to send information about discounts, promotions, informational updates, and other special offers directly to your customers’ mobile phones. With DaySmart Spa, your business can integrate SMS messaging into your client database to send appointment reminders and text marketing campaigns directly to your customers. Why Use SMS Marketing Campaigns? SMS marketing offers the ability to reach customers instantly and allows them a chance to respond quickly and in real time, making it easier to gain attention through actionable and urgent messaging that encourages the audience to respond. Because text marketing is still a comparatively new marketing strategy, the mobile carriers (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, etc. ) are on guard against unwanted text messages being sent to their customers, which they gauge through the volume of unsubscribes or blocking of messages. To successfully use text marketing for your business – and avoid the attention of the major carriers, it is crucial to strategically craft your messages in ways that entices customers to respond to your offer – AND prevent them from unsubscribing. That’s why we put together seven tips to help you make the most out of your SMS marketing campaigns. 7 SMS Marketing Best Practices 1.

When most people hear the words aesthetic and esthetic, they might think that these words are different spellings of the same word. However, these two words have different meanings. An aesthetic spa is a spa that focuses on improving the appearance of the skin. An esthetic spa is a spa that offers a wide range of services. This includes hair removal, massage, and skincare treatments. Skincare treatments currently make up a third of the entire industry, meaning that both of these types of spas are popular. And sure, there are some similarities between aesthetic and esthetic spas. But there are also some key differences. This quick guide will explore the differences between aesthetic and esthetic spas. Then, we’ll discuss the benefits of each type of spa in terms of business offerings. Aesthetician vs. Esthetician: What’s the Difference? A common question in the beauty industry is what exactly is the difference between an aesthetician and an esthetician. A lot of people use the terms interchangeably, but there are some key distinctions. An esthetician primarily focuses on skincare and can perform facials, makeup applications, or waxing treatments. In some states, they’re allowed to perform treatments such as laser hair removal or microneedling. An aesthetician may have similar skills. They also have in-depth knowledge of skin health and offer advanced treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy. This means that, in most cases, a medical aesthetician will have more extensive training and may require a license to practice.

Waxing studios need to stay on top of what their customers want to survive in a competitive sector.   Though female waxing trends have waxed and waned over the years, the market has focused on intimate-area waxing for the past few decades. Now, we’re seeing exciting new features like advances in wax technology, full-body waxing, and even an increase in male waxing.

They cause less skin irritation, stick better to the strands of hair (instead of the skin), and have lower melting points. Likewise, wax beads are popular because they’re easy to store, quick to melt, and you don’t need to use strips.

This involves plenty of exfoliation and cleaning.   The process is more like art, and it’s mainly about shaping the nails and deciding if you want a regular pedicure, acrylic nail, gel nail, or french pedicure. Then comes the fun part of actually painting your nails during the process.    After you’re done getting a pedicure, it’s important to have some tools to upkeep your results.

But despite the differences, those in the spa business know that attracting customers can sometimes be a challenge. Here, we’ll talk about some spa promotion ideas you can try to acquire new clients and boost sales. 1. First Visit Special Offer Think about the times you bought something because it was on sale. For a lot of us, the idea of saving money on a product or a service is hard to resist. And even if you muster the willpower to resist such an offer, you can’t deny that it still grabbed your attention. That’s what you want to take advantage of when you do a first visit special offer. Try something like a 20% discount or a dollar value discount, positioned as a credit. The latter is an especially good way to entice new customers into checking out your spa a second time. Remember, people don’t like wasting money. If they don’t use their credit, they will feel like they let go of another good deal. 2.

First, you should start with the basics. Stretch your fingers, neck, back, and shoulders before you start giving a massage, and after as well. This will help prevent repetitive stress injuries or other complications from overuse. Take plenty of breaks, and make sure that you get enough rest. Preparing with heat therapy before you work can also be beneficial for keeping your arms in tiptop shape. When you finish for the day, try icing your hands to prevent inflammation in your hands. Submerging your hands in an ice bath can be a good strategy for icing your hands effectively.   And, make sure your workflow is beneficial for you.

### Floating: A New Spa Trend. Why You Should Offer Float Therapy

You can float on air, float through life, float like a balloon, or float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. But have you ever heard of float therapy? Floatation tanks are the latest, greatest trend in holistic spas. They’re making such a splash on the national stage that professional athletes are flocking to them. In fact, football great Tom Brady has one in his home. So what is all the floating fuss about? Read on to learn more about float therapy–and whether or not they will float your customers’ boats! Floatation Therapy 101 In float therapy, you spend roughly an hour inside a small, light-proof, soundproof tank filled with highly salinated water. It’s an experience not unlike being in the womb, and it can have remarkable effects on both the body and the mind. You can think of floatation therapy as an Epsom salts bath on steroids, or as a miniature version of the Dead Sea. A bath of soothing, warm water liberally laced with Epsom Salts, otherwise known as magnesium sulfate, has long been known as a fantastic way to ease sore muscles and help the soaker relax. Some proponents of float tanks claim that our bodies can absorb magnesium directly from the Epsom salt-infused water, but scientific evidence to back this up is pretty spotty. Regardless, the sheer amount of magnesium sulfate dissolved in the water–an astonishing 1,000 lbs. –provides a buoyancy bordering on weightlessness. It’s as close as most of us, with the notable exception of astronauts, will...

While standard waxing is already inherently more eco-friendly than other hair removal methods, sugaring goes one step further. Sugar wax is a sticky, gel-like paste made from lemon, water, and... you guessed it, sugar. It’s a technique that dates back centuries–Ancient Egyptians reportedly used honey. Sugaring is great for Brazilians, a bikini wax, or customers plagued by ingrown hairs because it doesn’t pull on the skin cells and removes the hair right at the root. 2. Fun Shapes for Waxing Studios From fun-shaped landing strips shaped into lighting bolts and stars to romantic love hearts, it seems there is no end to the symbols a Brazilian wax studio therapist might have to create. These shapes are sure to test the skills of even the most practiced esthetician. Some beauty therapists frown...

Q: To start, we’d love to learn a little more about your business. What sets it apart from others? A: When I opened Laser Spa Group 18 years ago, we were the first spa in our area to offer laser treatments. We’ve since performed over 75,000 treatments to date, on about 10,000 clients.

Q: How long have you been using DaySmart Spa? What inspired you to start using the software? A: I’ve been a loyal user for 11 years now! I was a one-person show when I first opened my business, so as I got busier, I needed help with managing client information and treatment packages. At the time, all I needed was a way to track their services and where they were at in their treatments, and a good scheduling calendar. As we expanded our staff though, we needed a digital platform that could grow with us. Q: What has been your experience with the software? A: DaySmart Spa offers us convenience.

Common Pitfalls The most common problem in the spa industry is tips. Employees are responsible for accurately reporting the tips they receive, but the employer is not free from obligation in reporting on these. Complexities can arise when multiple service providers are splitting tips on a single client service. If your systems don’t allow you to accurately report the distribution of these payments, you could be reporting that income as having been received by one person, unfairly increasing their tax burden. Complex commission structures can also create hassles for employees unless you’ve properly defined payments within the software. You may offer certain commission rates for services but other commissions for products. The accuracy of the payroll records you generate drives the accuracy of your reports on the tax liability of employees (and contractors). Accounting Integration QuickBooks (or your preferred accounting software) is a great way to record your business expenses and your income details. However, if you are using business management software to run all other aspects of your business (e. g. , appointment scheduling, inventory management, payroll) you’ll ideally want to integrate these systems to maximize the software’s capabilities. Simplifying this connection also means fewer reports for you to print or export for your accountant or tax preparation service. Daysmart Spa & QuickBooks Connect Integration Based on popular demand, Daysmart Spa’s latest integration includes QuickBooks Online! To use this integration, you must have aDaysmart Spa cloud subscriptionand a QuickBooks Connect plan. Don’t already have a QuickBooks Connect plan? Click...

### The 2020 Small Business Saturday Marketing Checklist

- Categories: Blogs

With November 28 only a couple weeks away, follow our simple checklist to make this Small Business Saturday pandemic friendly. Offer Special Services Many small businesses are still recovering from the first wave of pandemic-related shutdowns, so offering discounts may not be the best move for business. Instead, spas should skip the discounts, maximize all the revenue they can and offer special services instead. For instance, for customers who are reluctant to shop in person, you can offer curbside pickup or at-home delivery. Create specific offerings around these services, such as a bundle of spa products that can be packaged neatly along with promotional materials. Providing creative and convenient services to celebrate the holiday is a great way to show customers you want their business. Stock Up On Gift Cards During the first wave of pandemic-related shutdowns, many consumers purchased gift cards to show support for their favorite local businesses, even when they couldn’t shop there in-person. Knowing a second wave may be on its way, customers may do the same this Small Business Saturday. Give shoppers the option to purchase a customized gift card with your store’s logo to raise brand awareness and build in repeat business. Highlight Memberships While big discounts may not be the go-to marketing strategy this year, spas may want to offer small discounts for customers that sign up for membership services. For instance, if customers keep their card on file or sign up for unlimited facials over five months, there should be a small...

Cryotherapy Facial Benefits There’s a good reason why people are agreeing to put ice cold nitrogen on their faces. The cryotherapy facial results that come from it are phenomenal. Often referred to as “frotox”, this chilling mask works wonders. Here are some of its benefits: 1. Increases Collagen Production Collagen is vitalfor keeping skin looking youthful. It’s a protein that helps to connect the ligaments to bones, strengthen blood vessels, and make the skin firm. As people age, their body stops producing as much collagen, which leads to wrinkles. Not to mention, the pollution and toxins in the air further damage the skin. All of these factors create bags under the eyes, deepens wrinkles, and enhances the signs of aging. 2. Enhances Blood Circulation During a cryotherapy facial, the liquid nitrogen...

Let 2020 be the year you hit all your personal goals. And one of your goals should be making things easier for your customers and employees. Take care of their health and beauty this year by offering more options at the spa. Spas are more than massages and manicures. Many places are offering a full suite of services. We have you covered with the top spa products and trends for 2020. Top Spa Products & Trends For 2020 1. Overnight Gel Masks Beauty spas can be taken home in your bag with gel masks. These masks apply nutrients to your facial skin while you sleep. The mask helps restore and rejuvenate the cells. There are some overnight masks specifically designed to be applied to the lips and eyelids that generic masks do not cover. Gel masks are quickly replacing cream masks in 2020. Your customers want to take these innovations home and make them a part of their skin routine at night for a healthier-looking feel. 2. Eyebrow Enhancements Microblading has become a staple in spas for the past few years. This brow enhancement varies from spa to spa depending on the techniques and style of the technician. Some of the technicians have failed to capture audiences due to poor practice. The replacement for microblading is ombre brows. This technique involves blending colors and tints to help give your eyebrows a softer appearance. For those who are unhappy with microblading results, try pushing eyebrow extensions or makeup until they can give ombre brows...

54% of consumers want to receive marketing messages through texts. However, only 11% of businesses are using text messaging as a part of their marketing strategy! This is your chance to get ahead of other spas in your area. By sending an SMS blast to your clients, you can remain top of mind year-round. Text message marketing can help you generate word of mouth, improve engagement with your clients, and show your clients you appreciate your business. Don’t wait around! Instead, untangle your marketing strategy by adding SMS text messaging to the mix. Here are seven reasons your spa needs SMS blast marketing. 7 Reasons Your Spa Needs Text Marketing: 1. Text Marketing is Direct Consumers are becoming more aware of when businesses are trying to sell at them, rather than communicate with them. Throughout any given day, we’re spammed with emails, flyers, and billboards. Many of us have adopted mental filters to clear away the junk. If the recipient doesn’t know and trust you, they’re not likely to open a physical or email messages. Meanwhile, social media is becoming increasingly competitive. If people don’t already know and love your brand, you’ll fail to stand out from the crowd. As social media algorithms change, it’s also challenging to appear in tags and feeds. As a result, businesses need to find smarter ways to reach their customers. Unlike these other marketing channels, texts arrive directly in front of your target audience. That means you don’t have to break out of the competition. Instead, you can reach your subscribers...

The New Year presents every business with the opportunity to set new goals and kickstart fresh initiatives. The key to realizing these aspirations—and truly adding value to your business—is making sure they are both mission-critical and attainable. Enhancements that would be “nice to have” won’t sustain your motivation all year round. As you determine your Day Spa New Year’s resolutions for 2020, make sure these four items make the list. Commit to eco-friendliness. Going green is easier than ever, and what was once an eco-differentiator for your shop is now becoming an expectation from consumers. Eco-friendly products are increasingly available, affordable and as effective as traditional brands. Not only will your business help the environment, but a commitment to doing so will impress your customers. In Nielson’s 2015 Global Corporate Sustainability Report, 66 percent of consumers said they are willing to spend more on a product if it comes from a sustainable brand. Additionally, 81 percent of millennials expect their favorite brands to make public commitments to corporate responsibility. While this may seem like a big ask for a small business, showing an investment in community and citizenship will go a long way with customer loyalty.     2. Track social media success. Starting to share campaigns on social media is important, but do you understand how those campaigns directly or indirectly impact your day spa? Right now, you may be pushing out social media content with little insight into what types of posts are working or why. In 2020,...

Since the dawn of spa businesses, there have been blotter calendars at the front desk (with plenty of pencils! ) but as with most other areas of life, tech is taking over. Spa businesses managing their clients and appointments by using paper calendars & files makes it tedious, time-consuming, and more than occasionally, frustrating. Imagine spending more time searching for information than actually using that information – does this sound like an efficient use of your time? There are things that technology will never replace. For example, even if a robot could be trained to give massages many clients would still prefer the personal touch of a real person. This does not mean that technology doesn’t have a place within all spa businesses, in fact, modern clients are starting to demand apps, 24/7 schedule access, text reminders, and other tech perks. In an automated app-happy world, spa businesses need to keep up with the times or get taken out by their competition. Here are a few real reasons why it might be time to take tech seriously: Old School Appointment Books Just Aren’t Cutting it Anymore There’s one truth when it comes to providing spa services – time is money. This means that every minute spent on anything other than your spa services is actually costing you in the long run. But ignoring “administration” (from payroll to client tracking to appointment reminders) can spell disaster for your business. So... .

We can already hear the sound of jingling bells in the distance, and the shelves are stocked full of pumpkin spice-flavored everything. That means the holidays are on their way, and the spa world rejoices for the entire holiday season and the money magic it brings. As a spa, you will want to make the most of the increase of clients looking to purchase gift cards for their loved ones – use these tips to sell gift cards faster than you’ve ever sold them before. Follow These Steps To Sell More Gift Cards: Offer Special Incentives The best way to convince anyone to do anything is to bribe them. That includes your soon-to-be gift-card-buying customers. Start a special promotion for gift cards. For example, offer clients a $5 credit toward their next service for every $50 in gift cards they purchase. Of course, you’ll want to run the numbers on the promo you choose to make sure it’s something you can afford. Make Gift Cards a Priority Take a moment to put yourself in your clients’ shoes during the holiday season. Their minds are constant whirlwinds thinking about all the preparations for the holiday. They’re thinking about travel plans and buying gifts, but they may not have thought of a spa gift card as the perfect present. That’s why you should focus your marketing budget on advertising your gift cards this year instead of your spa services. We’re not saying to stop marketing your services entirely. Putting 70% of your...

October marks National Women’s Small Business month—a time to recognize the accomplishments of women entrepreneurs and their contributions to the economy. DaySmart Software, makers of Daysmart Spa, has always been invested in the growth of women in business. In fact, 85% of our customers are female-owned businesses. With that, we wanted to highlight some of our most inspiring female customers. Fountain of Youth Sue Alderson opened Fountain of Youth Skin Renewal Centre in Hartland, Michigan in 2005. She had taken Botox training and realized she wanted to open up her own operation. Sue’s advice to professionals who want to pursue careers in the spa business is to go slowly. There is a lot of competition out there, so it’s important to investigate which services you want to offer and how it will impact you financially. Sue uses Daysmart Spa software to run several reports, including what types of services she’s sold and her monthly sales, which saves her a lot of time. Pure Touch Skin Center Katherine Juarez is the Director of Operations at Pure Touch Skin Center in Sherman Oaks, California.

As the backbone of the U. S. economy, small businesses are far from being small potatoes. In an increasingly commercial world, the allure of “mom and pop” operations and the commitment to shopping locally has resurged. However, small spas can’t afford to function less optimally than their corporate counterparts. Spa owners still need to manage a rapidly changing market and increasing expectations in the digital age. Traditional pen and paper business management tactics won’t keep pace with the pressures of tech-inclined clients. As a result, many small spa business owners are evaluating and implementing software tools that not only enable them to remain competitive, but that also empower growth. To understand this shift and how it impacts our customers’ needs, DaySmart Software, the makers of Daysmart Spa business management software, partnered with research firm Researchscape International to survey more than 590 U. S. small business owners in the salon and spa industries on their technology investments and the challenges they’re facing. These are some of the top takeaways. The State of U. S. Small Salon and Spa Businesses in 2019 Despite today’s complicated business landscape, salons and spas in the United States are growing. Sixty-seven percent of survey respondents indicated that their sales increased from 2017 to 2018. What’s more, 60 percent of respondents make more than $100,000 in annual revenues, and 30 percent make more than $300,000. So small salon and spa businesses are not only surviving in the market, but many are thriving. Even with this success, however,...

National Relaxation Day (August 15) is a time dedicated to unwinding and taking a break from the stress of everyday life. Yet for hardworking small business owners who deserve it most, the holiday may not seem realistic. Running a spa is an ever-demanding job that doesn’t pause when you do. The idea of staying at home, reading a book or going on a picnic may sound far-fetched, if not fantastical. That said, Relaxation Day may be most important for small business owners. According to the American Psychological Association, the second and third most common causes of stress are money and work—sound familiar? In fact, according to Daysmart Spa’s recent survey report, money is the number one concern keeping spa and salon owners up at night. With that, here are some ways for small business owners to take advantage of a Spa Relaxation Day – both for their health and the health of their business. Money Spa owners can leverage a Spa Relaxation Day as a timely way to promote new and repeat business. Customers need to relax, too, so why shouldn’t they kick back and get some pampering at your spa? To boost foot traffic, you can: Offer a promotion. In the days leading up to Relaxation Day, offer a deal for customers who come in on August 15. For example, everyone who visits gets a half-off manicure with their purchase. It seems counterintuitive, but customers will make an effort to relax if it means getting some free or discounted...

Integrating Your Software With Your Credit Card Transactions Your spa business consists of a series of many daily processes, but if you can’t fit all these pieces together, you may be missing out on the bigger picture.  Aligning your spa administration, customer management, and credit card transactions seems like the smart choice (and it is! ), but too many spas still use third party payment processors or insist on taking cash only. Cash may be king, but cash-only businesses are a thing of the past. In fact, in a recent study byConsumer Credit, only 14% of respondents said they use cash for everyday purchases while 80% of respondents said they use their debit cards. Cash only spas run the risk of losing customers because they are not offering modern payment systems.   Customers at spa expect their checkout experience to be simple and fast – this is where integrated credit card processing comes in. Read on to learn how integrating payment systems with your spa software can help strengthen your business as a whole, not just at checkout. Improve Customer Experience Integrated credit card processing can create a seamless checkout experience for your clients. No more switching between systems as your client waits, allow them to leave their wallets at home, as you charge their card on file, prompt them through the checkout process to leave a tip, and email receipts. Integrated payments act as a detailed customer database for your business and with modern systems, customers can access a...

While summer may mean vacations and cookouts for most people, for business owners it can mean slower days at the spa. In response to this dreaded shift, we published part one of our tips series last month, which offers tactics to boost sales during the infamous summer slowdown. Since it can never hurt to have more fresh ideas to try out in case business starts to slow down as the temperature heats up, we came up with five more tips for keeping revenue rolling in during summer—and beyond. Don’t jump to cutting prices It’s tempting to cut prices during the summer months to try to boost traffic, but that ultimately reduces your profits. Instead of selling items for less than their value, try to increase the perceived value of your spa services in the eyes of your customers. For example, instead of discounting your facials, sell them at full price and then add in a free head massage. This increases customer loyalty by making your customers feel like you’re going out of your way to give them the VIP treatment If your spa uses Daysmart Spa Software, be sure to use the email marketing feature to send out these deals to your entire client base automatically! Sell more memberships The one exception to cutting prices is when it comes to selling memberships, as they are a great way to encourage repeat customers. A membership deal gives your clients a good price on bulk services, and helps your estheticians strengthen their...

Summertime is nearing, and while that means beach trips, ice cream, and cookouts for most people it can mean slower days at the spa for business owners. This infamous summer slowdown comes as a result of more than half of your customers going away on vacation or simply trying to maximize the time they’re spending outside, according to a survey by Bankrate. So, while you may end up with fewer customers coming through your door as the temperature rises, don’t let this summer slump keep you up at night! Instead, follow these four strategies, which will not only help combat the slow traffic but could also make a huge difference in how much revenue your spa brings in this summer. Offer seasonal promotions Your customers’ needs change in the summer. Think of the kinds of activities they have planned for the summer and create promotions for your services that support those activities. For instance, offer combo packages for body waxing or a foot renewal treatment for sandal season. While those are practical summer spa services, don’t be afraid to have a little fun with your promotions, too. In the weeks leading up to the 4th of July, buy some festive decorations that make coming into the spa as fun as a family cookout. Try something new Summer gives people an adventurous spirit. If there’s a unique service that you’ve been nervous to roll out, this might be the season to give it a try. For example, if you’ve been considering...

Here’s the story of how Katherine got to where she is today: What made you want to run a spa? Before running Pure Touch, I worked in the cosmetic industry for 15 years. I was an RN at a hospital, doing research, but the job was intense. I moved into hair transplants, knowing I could make people happy. After that transition, I found a mentor—a surgeon who worked in facial reconstruction. With a bit of guidance, and through seeing their career, I knew I wanted to run my own business. Fast forward to meeting with the owners of Pure Touch. At the time, they had 23 RNs and 12 receptionists, were open every day of the week and were continually adding new procedures to their services lists. Even with two medical directors, they were struggling to manage every aspect of the business efficiently. When I came on, the first thing I did was look at the business and make sure everything was accounted for. With my experience in the plastic surgery and cosmetic field, I had several connections and friends who I could bring in to support operations. I was also...

Our lives are chaos. Even the most even-tempered of us get bogged down by the 24-hour news cycle, the general sense of impending doom, and the simple trials and tribulations of getting from one day to the next. Sometimes we just need a break. We need to find a place that is safe from the madness—where we can calm our minds, forget the world around us, and find peace within ourselves. And we are constantly on the lookout for any tool that will help us find that peace. Spas are the sharpest tools in that shed. They bring us calm waters when we feel helpless in the raging tide of life. To ensure that your spa continues to provide the best relief from life’s daily stresses it’s important to stay up-to-date with the latest treatments, so we’ve gathered up all of the most popular spa treatments for 2019 and put them into one article. Read on and stay sharp. Eco-Friendly Spa Treatments Our personal well-being is directly linked with the well-being of our beautiful planet.

Many spas are now offering treatments (particularly for the skin) made from all-natural ingredients that are easily accessible in their local area. Body scrubs made from natural ingredients such as brown sugar, honey, and coconut oil are becoming increasingly popular, as well as body wraps that sound good enough to eat—chocolate and cocoa bean and all-natural wine...

You’re in the midst of a successful career in the spa field. You’ve learned the ropes, earned your stripes and have a good sense of what it takes to excel in the spa industry. As a motivated entrepreneur, you have an eye to the future, and the idea of running your own spa sounds like the logical next step but do you know how to open a spa business? Becoming an employer comes with several perks. You get to run your small business, your way—bringing to life how a spa should run (which may or may not be how your current boss operates). While this may sound like a dream come true, ambition and vision are far from the only ingredients you need to succeed as a small business owner. Take these steps to learn how to open a spa: Do Your Research and Define Your Niche Look at trends in the market and in your community to understand where your business will fit into the landscape. What need(s) are you meeting? What can you do that your competitors can’t? Are you located more closely to your customer base? Do you offer spa services that they don’t? It will be crucial that you can articulate the specific value that your business offers as you sell investors, prospective employees and eventually customers on your brand.

Mind you, Instagram business profiles are being used for much more than window shopping. According to Instagram, 71 percent of its users are taking action, such as visiting a company’s website after viewing a post, or calling, emailing or direct messaging the business. With newer features such as Instagram shopping—where users can view products on Instagram Stories and purchase them directly—people are increasingly seeing Instagram as a place for consumerism. Your spa can and should take advantage of this platform to grow your business. If used strategically, Instagram can increase revenue alongside brand awareness. Follow these four steps to put Instagram to work for your small business. Share content that represents your spa You run a high-quality spa, so your photos should be high-quality. While camera focus and lighting may not be as important on personal Instagram profiles where photos are for the memories, you want to represent your space and your services accurately and professionally. This does not mean you need to invest in a multi-thousand-dollar camera. A modern smartphone should do the trick. Share photos that show users what it would be like to walk into your spa. From photos of the workplace to your employees to your most relaxing treatments—Instagram provides users with a preview of the experience they will have at your spa. It can even be the deciding factor of whether you win their business. Showcase your best work, any and all promotions, and don’t be afraid to incorporate your business’s personality into the content....

Over the last few months, we’ve devoted ourselves to making significant progress in our mobile app and cloud service experience.   Here’s a rundown of the latest enhancements in the mobile apps for Daysmart Spa. Mobile & Cloud Updates Service Exceptions and Pricing Levels You can now set up service exceptions and variable pricing levels. This enables different employees to charge different prices for performing the same service. If your staff includes beginner, intermediate and expert service providers, they can now charge (and be compensated) appropriately. *This feature is available in Deluxe and Premier editions only and will not work for Remote Access users.   When editing a service, you can set prices for each price level. Now, when you schedule this service, these prices will override the default service price with the price level of the employee assigned to that ticket. Duration Exceptions Employee price and duration exceptions can now also be set from each service. For services requiring processing, processing or finish durations can also be set within the service. *Employee exceptions are supported for both Cloud and Remote Access users. Improved Checkout Process We’ve improved the usability of the checkout process in order to streamline the delivery of receipts and to prompt for rebooking at checkout. If you’d rather not see one or both of these checkout pop-ups, we’ve also added a control to suppress one or both of these prompts to further speed your checkout process.   Marketing Campaigns The InkBook apps now have a new...

### Business Software: Your Spa’s Holiday Season Secret Weapon

- Categories: Blogs

Online Booking Competition can be fierce over the holidays—with more customers on vacation, home from school or looking to spend, sometimes, the most convenient option wins. Online booking makes it easy for clients to book appointments 24/7 and on the go. Instead of having to talk on the phone and look at their schedule, customers can see all your open slots (with adjusted holiday hours) and find the one that works best for them—and you’ll be automatically notified when a client books online. Bonus: Social Media Integration! Business software enables your clients to book appointments directly from your Facebook business accounts. By adding the “Book Now” button, you gain more clients with a seamless user experience. Automatic Email and Text Reminders Customers are busy during the holiday season, too—but if they miss or show up late for appointments, it costs you money. Automated reminders are easy to set up and remove the time-consuming task of calling each client to remind them of appointments. Once clients book an appointment online, your software will automatically notify the client by email. Then, as the appointment nears, clients will receive text reminders and can confirm if they are coming. Employee Scheduling Setting schedules and filling shifts can feel like a jigsaw puzzle—especially with more appointments and adjusted holiday hours. Employee scheduling software can help you set reoccurring schedules, so you don’t need to make a new schedule every week. You can simply tweak it one week to accommodate special requests, then go back to...

As a small business, you are constantly working to establish and grow your recognition in your local market and industry. While marketing and social media campaigns are essential elements in getting your spa’s name out there, it’s important that you focus on building not only visibility but also credibility. You might have referrals and reviews that show you offer high-quality services and products to your clients, but there is even more you can do to establish evidence of your excellence. One such tactic is applying for both local and industry awards. Not only does this validate the positive impression current customers have of your spa, but it also helps to engage new prospects and provides great content for your website, social channels and marketing campaigns. Not to mention, employees feel good working at an award-winning company. Still, submitting for an award is no small feat. It can be time-consuming and confusing, especially if you don’t know where to start. Follow these steps to streamline the submission process and win the accolades your spa deserves. Find the Right Awards to Apply For There are seemingly endless award opportunities out there, but not every award is right for your spa. You will heighten your chances of winning—and make the most of your time and effort—by choosing an award that speaks to the niche value of your business. Find the right award by: Choosing an award category that speaks to your strengths. Don’t apply to an award for spas just because you’re a...

A day at the spa provides stress relaxation and rejuvenation for everybody! Everybody except for the people working their hardest to satisfy their customers. Spa employees give to no end and leave the most relaxing place in the city in search of rest. Do you spend your day at the spa busting your buns to de-stress everybody else while your tension builds? If so, sit down in a comfy chair and read our relaxation techniques! The Physiology First, let’s talk about what goes on in the body to create a stress response and a relaxation response. Stress Response Our bodies contain a built-in mechanism, often called the “fight or flight” response, carried out by the sympathetic nervous system in order to help us deal with danger. This system speeds the heart, slows the guts, restricts blood flow to the brain, tenses the muscles, and prepares the body for attack with Cortisol and Adrenaline. Unfortunately, stressors register as danger and trigger this mode. The American Psychological Association explains that due to this response, stress leads to body aches, fatigue, anxiety, tummy trouble, reproductive issues, and heart disease, making finding ways to relax imperative. Relaxation Response When we relax, the parasympathetic nervous system takes over allowing us to “rest and digest”. When this happens, our heart rate and respiration slow, muscles relax, and blood flow resumes to the brain. Relaxation returns us to the state where our bodies thrive. Relaxation Techniques After a Busy Day at the Spa With that in mind, here are...

### Integrate Payment Processing with Speedy Client Checkout

Taking payments is a crucial part of any spa business. In this blog, we’ll share insights into what integrated payment processing is, its importance, and additional perks when your two systems are working together. The payment services you sign up for to accept credit cards in your spa is called a payment processing service. You might have obtained your processing services through your local bank as part of setting up your business account, purchased the credit card reader hardware as part of your front desk POS, or opted for mobile reader hardware from a provider like Square. Now, when we say “integration” of a payment processing service, we’re talking about connecting that credit card processing service to your spa management software. The spa software tracks your clients and their purchases. When it comes time for a client to pay for services with a credit card, many front desk personnel need to juggle these two systems. The spa software provides the total amount due and, if not integrated with your spa software, that amount needs to be manually entered into the payment system. Perhaps that’s into a separate computer or a payment terminal (swiper/ scanner) that is physically connected to the same computer but uses separate software. This means you’re switching systems – taking the amount owed from one application and then manually entering it into the payment system. Hurried receptionists trying to check the client out, maintain some level of cheerful small talk, and rebook or up-sell (ignoring the ringing phone) may make...

Studies have shown that most people spend about 90,000 hours at work over the course of their lives. That represents about 30 percent of their total time and indicates just how invested people are when it comes to their jobs. As a spa owner or spa employee working a full week, this probably sounds all too familiar! How do people survive all that time in the spa? Some stay motivated by thinking about all the money they’re making. Others feel fulfilled by the kind of work they’re doing. But the majority of people are able to go into work day in and day out and enjoy it because of their spa friends. Many people find that their friends at work turn into their best friends over time. They spend so much time with them that they become closer and closer until they’re eventually inseparable. Here are some of the reasons why people say their work friends are also their best friends. Spa Friends Share Many of the Same Struggles No matter how much you love your spa job, there are probably certain things about it that you wish you could change. For example, you might wish one of your managers was a little bit nicer. Or you might wish that people would stop stealing your lunch out of the refrigerator in the break room. Or you might wish you didn’t have to work weekends to accommodate your clients. Your spa friends share the same struggles as you and help make them a little bit...

Moreover, removing hair is necessary for the summer if they plan on plenty of poolside or beachfront fun. That said, here are popular spa treatments for you or your clients to have a little spa getaway. 1.

To show our appreciation to all these hard working, talented customer service experts, we’ve created a list of five reasons to LOVE your receptionist: First Impressions Count! Deciding on a spais usually a tough choice for most people, and the first impression greatly impacts a potential client’s decision on whether they’ve found “their place” or whether they need to continue their search. A warm, welcomingcustomer experienceis critical at this first moment of contact, putting your front desk personnel in an extremely important role that not everyone appreciates. As new clients call to book appointments, the receptionist provides their first interaction with your spa, so this needs to be welcoming and friendly to make it a good one! They are the Face of the Spa As new and existing clients arrive for their appointments, the receptionist is the first person and last person they see! Yourreceptionist’s appearance, manners, knowledge and helpfulness need to be on par with how you want your spa to be viewed and remembered. If your receptionist is welcoming and professional, this will help potential clients think positively about your spa. Think of the receptionist as your brand manager – who, in addition to everything else, should be focused on warm welcomes and fond farewells for all of your guests.

### How to Give Your Spa a Fresh Start for the New Year

Are you wanting to bring your new year’s resolutions to your spa this year? 2018 isn’t only about what changes you want to make in your life. It’s also a great chance to give your spa a fresh start. The good news is that a fresh start doesn’t have to mean moving your spa to a new location, or completely renovating your decor. (Although, it certainly can! ) Read on to learn more about ways you can refresh and recharge your spa this New Year, so that you can start your year off on the right foot. 1. Declutter and Spring Clean Your Space One of the best ways to give your spa a fresh start is to physically clean and declutter your spa space. And we’re not just talking about the area that customers see. It’s time to finally declutter those closets, storage rooms, and employee areas that may need some fresh air. Deep clean these areas and donate any unnecessary or outdated objects to a local thrift store. Make sure all pathways are clear and free.

Do you feel like someone managed to zap all of the energy out of your normally happy spa? If you’re feeling this way, it probably isn’t in your head.

Spas are meant to be happy and relaxing places. Your customers aren’t going to feel at home in a spa full of gloomy people. Luckily, there are some simple ways for you to beat the winter blues in your spa.

It’s estimated that nearly 10%-20% of the entire US population has some form of SAD.

As spa management you may be a multitasking master where you juggle business strategy, staff mentoring and client marketing whilst still keeping up with daily customer relations.

For spa management success, prioritize the following factors to influence your businesses overall personality and attitude. 1.   Make Team Building a Key Management Approach Recruiting a manager could help you switch staff focus and improve business. By redirecting staff members and being a strong leader you can help employees become motivated and dedicated to the business and work harder within their role.

This will help them see the job requirements for themselves and get clear benchmarks for growth. An extensive training program will help new employees sharpen their skills and offering incentives such as extra paid vacation days for reaching certain sales goals to can help motivation. 2.   Encourage Employees to Pursue Spa Careers Instead of Jobs As Spa Management, perfecting employees abilities should be an ongoing pursuit, despite skill level and client count.
