Do you know what to look for when selecting your salon software? The expert at Premier Software reveal some top tips…
“Salon technology needs to be flexible, adaptable and mobile,” explains Leonie Wileman, chief operations officer at Salon by Premier Software. “Technology must be that extra pair of hands, providing insight and a complete business overview at the touch of a button.
“Prior to making any software purchase, it is important for salon owners to determine what they want to gain from a software package and what they want it to do, not just today but in the future too.
“Smaller independent salons should look for social media integration, automated marketing, accurate scheduling and reporting, but as a business grows and their aspirations change, multi-site functions and client data for specific region-wide promotions will become more beneficial. From keeping your business front of mind and increasing client retention with automated marketing, to financial reporting which provides the facts and figures you need to increase profit.
“Mobile and freelance technicians need a software solution that is as flexible as they are. It should be easy-to-use, accessible on a mobile or tablet device, yet provides them with the functionality they need to communicate with their customers, promote their business, schedule accurately and analyse efficiently.”
