The Challenge
The salon had skilled stylists, a loyal base of regulars, and a high-end interior—but still depended heavily on foot traffic, referrals, and inconsistent Instagram posting. They weren’t showing up on Google Maps, had outdated booking software, and lost opportunities from people searching “hair color near me” and “best women’s salon in Florida.”
They needed a digital engine that matched their real-world polish. Echo & Impact stepped in to transform their visibility, lead flow, and reputation—online and offline.
