01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Beauty by Design shows a below-average health score for its Google Business Listing, with room to improve key elements. Current strengths include a claimed listing, an open-for-business status, and a complete address plus a listed phone number. The main opportunities focus on adding a website link and more photos to better engage local customers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.
  • 3
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.

02ReviewsMarketbase business report

Your reviews

Beauty by Design shows low overall health on Google reviews (2.2/10) but has a strong star rating in the top 10% and is collecting more reviews. The key findings: a high customer satisfaction signal from existing ratings, and a lack of reviewer engagement. Next, opportunities include continuing to raise the rating, starting to respond to reviews, and growing total review volume.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Star ratingYour rating is among the highest in this market and it does its own selling - a customer sees it before they read anything else.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits well below what buyers here are used to seeing, which means a customer comparing options side by side reads you as the less proven choice.

Where you show up on the map

Beauty by Design has a below-average health score of 3.9 out of 10 for Google Maps search visibility, indicating there is room to raise presence. The strongest current signals show rankings for several focused terms in Spreydon, such as beauty salon and eyelash salon in Spreydon, and nail salon in Spreydon, suggesting potential to build on local relevance in the suburb.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across fewer of the surrounding suburbs than half the businesses here, so someone two suburbs over searching for your service is shown your competitors and never sees your name.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches more often than the middle of your suburb, so a customer searching nearby is likely to see you in the first handful.

04Listings and socialMarketbase business report

Where customers find you

Beauty by Design shows a below-average health score for Citations and Social Presence, with room to improve local listings and social profiles. The strongest current asset is a very high-trust Facebook profile and a Yellow Directory listing that boosts local visibility. Key opportunities focus on increasing presence on Instagram, TikTok, Neighbourly, Yellow, and GrabOne to broaden reach.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page, and the trail between you and it is unambiguous - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Yellow ProfileWe could not find an active Yellow Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.
  • 3
    Fresha ProfileWe could not find an active Fresha Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    A phone numberA phone number shows on your page, so the person who found you on Facebook before they found your website can ring straight from it.
  • ✓
    What your page says about youFew intros in this market run as full as yours, and it sits close to the limit that length has stopped being a lever.
  • ✓
    A street addressA street address sits in your page details, so someone deciding between you and a business two suburbs over can see which of you is closer.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post reaches people who already know you rather than anyone still deciding.
  • 2
    A page address you choseYour page address is one Facebook generated rather than one you chose - your business name with a long number bolted on, or just the number.
  • 3
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Beauty by Design is open for 28 hours weekly but only covers 28 peak-aligned hours while missing 49 high-demand hours, giving a low temporal health score (2.8/10). Strong alignment exists around Wednesday 3pm, Thursday 4-5pm, and Saturday 1-2pm. Missed opportunities include Tuesday 10am-1pm and Thursday 6pm; extending those slots could capture unmet local demand.
