Your work is your ad

Clients book based on what they can see. Before and afters, close-ups of finished work and happy clients do the selling for you.

Word of mouth, amplified

Every client knows at least one other person who gets the same service. Make it easy for them to share and recommend you. Tag-friendly posts and a quick review ask after every appointment go a long way.

Keep it simple

  • Post consistently. Going quiet means someone else fills the gap.
  • Ask every happy client for a Google review.
  • Boost your best posts to people nearby. Small budgets go far here.

Reviews are your shopfront

Most people check your reviews before they book. A steady flow of recent, detailed reviews builds trust faster than any ad. Reply to every review, good or bad, so new clients can see you care about the experience.

What To Watch Out For

  • Going quiet. Gaps in posting are when clients drift to someone else.
  • Forgetting to ask for reviews. Happy clients rarely leave one unless you ask.
  • Heavily filtered photos. If results don't match the post, trust drops fast.

Your Industry Learnings

  • Your work is the ad.
  • Every client can bring you another.
  • Low cost, high reward, as long as you stay consistent.

Do this week
