The regular loyal customer visits a salon every 6
weeks. This corresponds to approximately 8 visits a year. First time customers,
hardly ever get more than a haircut. And, only one out of ten first time
customer buys a beauty product on the first visit. Extraordinary service
coagulates customer professional relationship.
The fourth visit for about 6 months after the
first visit, customers spend an average of $50 on services and about $10 on
beauty products. Salon industry statistics show that a satisfied customer
refers 3 new customers. Therefore, one customer can lead to many new customers.
In contrast, if the customer is dissatisfied, they will tell as many as 10
people about their dissatisfaction. The economic value of losing a customer
should not be seen to lose an average ticket, but the possibilities to losing
more than 100 possible referrals.
