Marketing a Hair Tinting Business

A profitable hair tinting business is about more than supply and demand. It's about designing ways to entice new customers to engage with your products and to encourage existing customers to increase the frequency of their purchases.

Think tired marketing collateral is all you need to succeed in today's marketplace? Think again!

By leveraging today's best marketing techniques, any hair tinting business can achieve greater marketing dominance through strategic marketing and robust value messaging

Company Website

If you haven't done so already, the first step in marketing your hair tinting business is also the anchor point for your technological strategy: A company website. Although many businesses have a website, a poorly designed and unnavigable website is worse than having no web presence at all. Your site is a representation of your business; it needs to convey the same professional appearance and functionality as you expect from any other sales and marketing asset. Conversion paths are also important. With the proper design, your site can walk new visitors through a series of decisions that culminate with either an online sale, a phone order, a personal visit or a request for more information.

Promotional Calendars

Sloppy marketing programs have no place in growing hair tinting businesses. A strategy chocked full of time-sensitive ad placements and other tactics can devolve into a tangled mess of overlapping deliverables unless it is coordinated in a promotional calendar. Good calendars include not only tactical deadlines, but also schedules for the inputs (e.g. staff assets, vendors, etc.) that are required to execute strategic objectives. Consumer mailing lists from a respected provider can add value to your calendar by incorporating geographic and demographic consumer data into your promotional schedule.

Staffing Expertise

Assigning responsibility for the execution of a marketing strategy can be more difficult than creating it. In practice, a large number of business owners simply assume the role of marketer-in-chief, squeezing even more responsibilities into their already packed schedules. To maintain marketing momentum, many hair tinting businesses outsource marketing to a professional firm. In addition to delivering a better overall outcome, marketing firms bring an objective perspective to your strategy and key messaging.
