“Leigh” was traveling on business when the unthinkable happened.

She had to cut off a strand of her hair after it became entangled in her curling wand. In a town where she did not know anyone, she needed a stylist fast. She had a presentation to 200 people in two days.

Leigh was able to go online and find a stylist in the area through a salon directory. The stylist made Leigh look great for her presentation! Where did Leigh go?

I set up the salon directory last month to give salons, spas and other beauty professionals an opportunity to advertise cost effectively. The secret to our directory is we just don’t list your salon. Our staff writer adds a short description that is keyword optimized. In other words, someone who is looking for “Akron hair salon” will find it because the key word is used in the description.

We also promote the salon directory through press releases, advertisements and hair shows. The more people that see the directory, the more people that see you!

This is our first full month with the directory and for this month only, you can sign up for half price---just $30 a year. First 100 people to sign up get a Lifetime Membership included with the $30. Take advantage of this offer through Jan. 31.

While you are on our site, take a look at all we have to offer. If you want more information, just send me an email!
