Generating Revenue Beyond The Chair

Passing out your card or flyer is a thing of the past. Can you build a successful brand without a website? Yes, it's possible. Yet, the full potential of your marketing reach will never be met without a website. Therefore, regardless of your current success, failing to have a website is a low-ball effect on your bottom line. Thirty percent of consumers won't consider a hairstylist without a website and will consider a hairstylist that DOESN’T has one as less professional.

We currently assist dozens of hairstylists like celebrity hair stylist Greg Gilmore. When Red Carpet Shears first started working with Greg, he had a site that wasn't working for him. The website was barely getting 5 visits per day, it wasn't ranking for any keywords and it did not have e-commerce capabilities. Greg wanted the option to sell products, services, educate clients, and potential new clients with informative blogs and newsletters. In May of 2018, Greg was ready to convert his fans into subscribers and customers. Greg was ready to invest in a Starter Website!

Currently, Greg uses his Starter website to promote classes, workshops, services, events, and more! Not only is Greg building an email subscriber list, but he's also selling Print on Demand products and Virtual Consultations to followers all over the world.

In addition, Greg ranks on the 1st page of Google for his brand Greg Gilmore Hair, and hundreds of other keywords currently driving traffic to his website. Greg is now booked solid and was no longer able to accept Virtual Consultations because of the demand. Initially, Greg didn't believe he could "sell" consultations, but we proved him wrong within the first few weeks of his store going live.

Greg has now launched all of the following successfully with his Basic Starter Website.

Workshops
Virtual Consultations
POD products (e.g. apparel & accessories)
Services (One-on-One Consultations, Speaking Engagements, etc)
Newsletters published weekly
Blogs
and more
