Think 80/20 then scale down.

The slice of valuable spa customers using social media may be small but they pack a powerful punch. Think of Malcolm Gladwell’s descriptions of influencers in the book The Tipping Point. It is that serving of spa clients currently using social media and functioning within diverse social worlds that can make a big difference to your spa revenue.

There is tremendous potential in loyal spa clients, who are on your website and engaging in social media. Seek them out, connect and reward them for disseminating your spa content and offers to their community.

Your socially gifted clients are much more likely to deliver new customers to your website via social media. Even better, this new flow of clients is more likely to translate into purchases or booked appointments. It is a delicately valuable consumer traffic chain that can transmit increased revenue and new loyal clients.

The golden (social media) scenario.

Clients posting or emailing your spa’s promotional offers, newsletters or event announcements to their social network have a transformative effect; it enhances your spa brand. Why? You can’t buy the positive impact of having clients send out your message to their community. These social media mavens are linking your spa brand to a wider public, with their personal stamp of approval, and extending their positive energy in support of your business.

SpaBoom allows spas to develop promotional offers that link directly to their website. In addition, each spa offer can be set up to automatically post to the spa’s Facebook and Twitter accounts. It is easy to set up and get started delivering targeted offers to spa clients.

Our office regularly shares insightful articles and spa offers to co-workers using instant messaging and email. We are collectively much more likely to read and act on offers from those we respect in our network. Online tools are a great way to extend your spa message beyond your existing client base and increase revenue.

Valuable, relevant content is key to success.

It is critical to deliver content that communicates value, to get a positive response from targeted consumers. The Joy of Spa newsletter, available to all SpaBoom clients, can be sent out to your customer-base each quarter. Your clients are much more likely to forward it and share fresh, relevant spa content.

Gauge your social media success by the value of the content you put out to the universe. It is a deal breaker, so make sure your offers, events and newsletters provide consumers with direct and instant value.

Customers expect to have a great experience when they visit your spa’s website. They anticipate its speed, relevant information and ease of navigation because it is what they experience from other websites. Customers won’t wait for unwieldy transactions; they must be quick, easy and on their way instantly. They want to "get the gist" of what makes your spa special before they pass its threshold.

Your spa's first impression, particularly for new spa customers, begins with your business website. Just as customers are greeted at the spa door with a smile, extraordinary service and a lush white robe, your online audience expects tools that make their experience easy and satisfying. Put the control in their hands and you will find that your spa runs more efficiently and revenues see a positive gain as a result.

Information is Power:

Relevant information is critical to keep customers on your website. The content you create should be clear and help differentiate your spa, ultimately guiding them toward a purchase. Keep information concise and helpful, no flowery content necessary. Here is a list of important information that should be very easy to find on your website.

• Map and directions to your spa.
• Spa treatment menu.
• Pictures of the spa that differentiate it from the competition.
• Reviews. If you don’t want to link to online reviews, ask your clients to give you reviews and post them online.

Transaction Is Power:

You are making your customers' lives easier by making gift certificates available 24/7 and without the need to leave the comfort of their homes.

Joy of Spa Universal Gift Certificates make it possible to send spa gifts to relatives in Denver or Chicago. I love that my favorite local spa benefits from my out-of-town spa gift purchases. The Joy of Spa badge on your spa website means incremental revenue and it is a great benefit for customers.

Booking Is Power:

Customers book so much online these days, most wouldn’t dream of calling to make plane, car or hotel reservations. It puts the power in the hands of the customers and that makes for the beginning of a great relationship. With online spa booking customers don’t need to call; they can book an appointment when they are ready, 24/7.

It is a free SpaBoom service that makes it easy for clients to book a spa appointment.

Communication Is Power:

Any relationship is two-way; it requires a give and take. Creating an open, engaging dialog with your clients gives them powerful information that they can use or pass on to friends and family. Utilizing these tools, making them available to customers, is great for your spa business because it helps build your spa community one loyal customer at a time.
