  • Computerizing your salon : why ?

  • Whether you're computerized or not yet, the question to ask is: « why would I use a computerized tool ».
    It is true that most of the programs can be used as a cash register tool (cashing, invoices, closing of the cash desk), but it would be a shame to not go further than that and to use other available features. And let's be clear, using computer software in a salon save time and add rigor in many aspects.
    INFORMATICS = GAIN IN TIME + EFFICIENCY + PERFORMANCE + RIGOR
    Some of the key functions seem to me very useful. Here the main ones:
    • The stock management function : enables to better prepare the orders and the inventories. Good orders and information ready to be used for your accountant.
    • The schedule management function: workforce, leaves, sickness, appointment calendar, etc. Clarity for everybody.
    • Informatics is equipped with a clock which enables many applications : monitoring of colleagues schedule, distribution of work study according to the days and the time slots. Very useful to optimize the workforce management according to the peaks and the calm periods.
    • The commercial file: well informed, it will enable to know better your clients and to help deciding the best commercial strategy to adopt and the potential marketing actions basing on factual observations and not on vague feelings. Because making non targeted marketing operations is off topic nowadays: the clients are so solicited that they « zap » you if the offer proposed is not adapted to them. Knowing well your clients thanks to a commercial file thus enables to earn money.
    • Analysis of the performances of the salon and of your colleagues: thanks to easy and clear dashboards, it is possible to pilot the teams with a prodigious efficiency. For those specialized in analysis, you can have access to many data and you can analyze them even further.
    • Marketing modules: those enable to make your own marketing operations like sending of mail shots or messages or even the printing of offers to be used for a another visit directly with the receipts given to the clients. Targeted offers and the possibility to act in a record time.
    • Treatment of the employees' information: all the information which is essential for the accountant to establish the pay stubs is available. The data are ready to be used and just have to be send again by email to the accountant. Gain in time, efficiency, money.

    In short, adopting a computer program means multiplying the chances to work efficiently while saving time. It is then recommended to discover and to know how to use the available functions because this will definitely reinforce the strength of the company.
