Does this sound like
your target market?
You can increase positive word of mouth about your business within
this market.
Facebook is a powerful medium for you to enhance word of
mouth amongst your clients and their social networks. According to
Facebook.com, the average person has 130 friends, so imagine the viral
opportunities available on Facebook when you multiply out how many people you
can potentially reach through your own client base.
Many spas are using the Shortcuts
Facebook online booking application to tap into the viral opportunities made
possible on Facebook. This application allows your clients (and their friends) to
book an appointment with you as soon as you post specials, discounts or events.
These appointments will go straight into your Shortcuts appointment book, so
you avoid double booking or double handling appointments.
