Technology Stack
The Situation
The salon chain had 4 locations but no website, no online booking system and no digital marketing strategy. Revenue was entirely dependent on foot traffic and referrals. Growth had plateaued and new competition in the area was pulling customers away. Pikplix built their entire digital presence from scratch, implemented an online booking system, ran local SEO for each location and built a customer retention engine using email and SMS automation.
Problems Before Pikplix
No Online Presence
No website, no Google listing and no social media presence. Completely invisible online.
No Online Bookings
All bookings taken by phone. Staff wasting hours on calls that could be automated.
No Customer Retention
Customers came once and were never followed up. No loyalty programme or re-engagement system.
Poor Local Visibility
Not appearing in Google local searches when customers searched for salons nearby.
Plateauing Revenue
Revenue had not grown in 2 years. New salons in the area were taking market share.
No Reviews Strategy
Very few online reviews. No system to collect or respond to customer feedback.
