Why should I sell gift vouchers in my salon?
1. Vouchers are perfect for any occasion
Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, “Congratulations on your new baby!” – gift vouchers are the answer. By selling them in your salon, you can help your clients celebrate a special moment, or simply let someone know you’re thinking of them. They’re also the perfect last-minute “whoops, I almost forgot…” gift.
2. Tailor them to your clients
Each client is unique, and comes with their own self-care preferences. Create customisable vouchers for the different treatments you offer – for energising treatments, rest and relaxation treatments, ‘new mum’ treatments. Whatever you offer, you can turn into a gift voucher. Alternatively, just set up vouchers with different monetary values so your customers can choose one to suit their budget.
