Social proof in marketing is the idea that consumers will adapt their behaviour from online reviews, existing customers or media coverage. You can capitalise on this by making it a valuable component of your business strategy. Knowing that clients are happy with the service they’re receiving is one of the best marketing tricks. Your business can use social proof by showcasing customer reviews and results – and shouting about the SkinBase awards.

Why is Social Proof Important? 

Social proof shows trust in your service – and it is critical for any service-based business. It is a great way to attract new clients and add credibility to your brand. It is easy to use it in your marketing strategy. This will help to reassure potential clients they will be in safe hands.

Types of Social Proof 

At SkinBase we have a range of effective social proof already available. Our competition before and afters are a brilliant way to showcase how your treatments work. It is a good idea to get as many testimonials and reviews from your existing clients, so new clients will see you as a trustworthy choice. Ask your best loyal customers to write a review which you can use to attract new clients. Industry awards and accreditations also help your marketing.

Use Reviews on Your Site & Socials

You can use these reviews on your website, in salon and on your socials. Choose an appropriate review to post linked to the relevant treatment to build trust in your skills. Tagging customers is also effective. By celebrating them in your posts, they feel valued and you get to show off your expertise.

Benefits of Social Proof in Salon Marketing

Social proof gives your salon an edge against your competitors. It shows increased credibility and helps you to create a strong online presence. This means a better reputation. It is easy cost-effective marketing and helps with customer retention. It also helps to build loyalty.

Transformation of the Year 

SkinBase already has the best type of social proof in place with our ‘Transformation of the Year’ competition.  When you partner with SkinBase we provide a range of marketing. These demonstrate the value of treatments through the ‘Transformation of the Year’ competition. You can even make your own annual book of transformations to keep in your salon to help boost your business.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
