How Salon Ads Studio works
The whole thing, start to finish: what you do in ten minutes, what we build, what runs every week, and the four numbers you get each month.
Your part: about ten minutes, once
- Sign in with Google, and hand it over. One Google screen covers your ads account and your Google listing. You stay the owner of both and can cut us off in a click. Haven’t got an ads account? We open one in your name, on your card, and hand you the keys.
- Answer one question. If we sent you fifteen new clients next month, could you fit them in? If the answer’s no we won’t sell you ads, and we’ll say so.
- Glance over your plan. We read your listing and your area and work the rest out — your services, your booking link, your phone number, a drafted ad and a drafted page. You change anything we got wrong with a tap.
That is everything. No tags to install, nothing to write, no settings pages.
Before you’ve paid a penny
We fix your Google listing, free. Missing services, no booking link, a description from 2019, hours that say you’re closed when you’re not. We show you what’s wrong and put right everything we’re allowed to, with no card on file and nothing owed. It works on the days you’re not advertising, so it’s worth having either way.
Then, in about three minutes
- A page worth sending people to. Written and hosted by us, yours to keep. You get one whether or not you have a website — it’s the only way we can honestly count a call or an enquiry — and if you’ve got a site we link it from your page and count the taps through.
- One search campaign, split by service. A £25 fade and a £280 balayage are never bid alike.
- The blocked list. Courses, jobs, apprenticeships, hair models, tutorials, wholesale — five hundred and thirty-six searches that quietly eat salon budgets, removed before your first click.
You can watch it happen or close the app — it carries on without you, and we email you when you’re live.
Every week, without you
We move money towards whatever is filling chairs and cut whatever is not. You do not review it, approve it, or read about it. Hard rails we never cross: your budget limit is never exceeded, and we never touch your billing without asking.
Once a month, one email
Four numbers in plain English: calls, enquiries, what was spent with Google, and what each enquiry cost. Plus a sentence or two on what we changed and why. Nothing to log into.
Questions people ask
Do you take commission on bookings?
No. Never. You pay one fixed monthly fee by spend band (£15 to £149) and your ad money goes straight to Google. A client who found you through your own ad costs you nothing when she rebooks.
What happens if I cancel?
You cancel in a click, any month, and we don't ask why. You keep your page, your tidied-up Google listing, and your ads account — it's in your name from day one.
Can you tell me which client came from which search?
No, and nobody honestly can for most salons. Fresha and Treatwell don't share booking data. We count what can be counted — calls, enquiries through your page, and taps through to your booking system — and we say so plainly.
Do I need a website?
No. We write and host a page for you either way — your services, your area, and a big button to call or book — because it's the only way we can honestly count a call or an enquiry. If you have a website we link it from your page and count who taps through. It's yours to keep even if you leave.
