01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Boxx hair space shows a low overall Google Business Listing health, but has essential listing basics in place. The most important findings are that the business is claimed and the phone number and full address are present, providing solid contact and location signals. However, gaps include a missing website link, a weak description, few photos, and no logo.

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
    Description lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Boxx hair space shows very low health on Google Business Reviews, indicating minimal customer engagement and a lack of established ratings. The most important findings are the absence of responses to reviews and the near absence of reviews, suggesting reputational risk for potential clients. Addressing these areas could stabilise perception while building trust.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together put you at the bottom of this market - either the rating is low, or there are too few reviews behind it for anyone to trust it.
  • 2
    Star ratingYou have no star rating yet, so a customer scanning results sees an empty space where every other business shows a number.
  • 3
    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.

03Map positionsMarketbase business report

Where you show up on the map

Boxx hair space shows overall health of 7.0 out of 10, which is above average and indicates solid visibility in Google Maps. The strongest sign is borough-specific performance, where the business ranks in the top 10% and holds several top positions for key services. The main opportunity is to improve the aggregate Maps search score to broaden reach beyond the suburb.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Maps visibility in your own suburbNo business in your suburb turns up in local Maps searches more often than you do - for a customer searching nearby, you are among the first names on the screen.

Top opportunity

  • 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.

Where customers find you

Boxx hair space shows an average health score of 5.2/10, meaning there is room for improvement in its social presence and directory listings. The most notable findings are a very strong Facebook presence and a solid Fresha listing, which can help attract local clients and showcase services. Opportunities lie mainly in adding TikTok and refining Yellow Directory profiles.

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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page through search alone, with no link from your own website and nothing on your Google listing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    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.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    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
    Recommendations on your pageYou hold fewer recommendations than the middle of this market.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro runs to a line, shorter than most pages here, so it names the business without settling whether you do the particular job the reader came about or cover the suburb they live in.
  • 3
    People following your pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Boxx hair space's opening hours match many local search peaks but also miss several midday opportunities. The salon is open during strong Saturday and Tuesday mid-day demand, aligning with popular customer windows, and records no low-demand open hours. However it is closed across multiple Monday midday slots and Sunday 3pm when local searches are high, suggesting selective hour adjustments could capture extra bookings.
