To celebrate National Social Media Day, we’re walking through our top three tips for salons and spas to boost their presence on Instagram and Facebook. These tips are inspired by Zenoti-powered salons and spa – enjoy!
1. Use your profile bio to your salon or spa’s full advantage.
Ensure you maximize the impact of your salon or spa’s presence on Instagram by getting the most out of your bio section. Limited space and a one-link limit demands you strategize wisely. Consider changing your link based on how you would like customers to engage with your brand.

2. Play to your salon or spa’s expertise.
Your salon or spa is an expert in the beauty industry. Use your social media posts – on both Instagram and Facebook to show off your knowledge and build customer trust.
