Recommendations and more recommendations!

Yesterday we had an amazing but desperate email from a client of ours who has moved to Arizona.

She has been gone for nearly a year now and just can’t find a decent hairdresser.

She was telling us how much she missed us and wished she could visit us for some Killer Hair action.

It was very sweet and she pleaded for us to recommend someone but sadly we don’t know anyone in Arizona. At Killer, because we are a boutique salon, we don’t advertise and we don’t have a big sign in the main road. We live off recommendations - it’s the only way we get clients.

But we should all be better at giving recommendations! In this time of a slower economy or any time in fact, we all should recommend cafes, mechanics etc etc.

I love being told of a great book or film, where to get a great coffee. We should recommend quality whenever we can as it’s a great way of helping each other to find the things we want when we want them. Otherwise it’s all a bit disappointing.

Anyway back to the salon. It’s university hols so all my student clients are coming in for their hairdos. Most haven’t been since Feb so it’s gonna be fun!!.
