01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Cabana Hair Co. shows a below-average Google Business Listing health of 3.9/10. Overall health indicates room for improvement, with some completed elements supporting visibility and credibility. The most important findings: the listing is claimed and has a full address, a live open status, and a website link, but there is no phone number and the description and photos are still developing. Customers benefit from clearer contact options and richer visuals as gaps are filled.

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
    PhoneYour listing has no phone number, so the call button a customer expects to tap is not there and the ones in a hurry ring someone else.
  • 2
    Description lengthYour description is far shorter than what most businesses here have written, which means a customer comparing listings gets a line from you and three paragraphs from the business beside you.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou have fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.

Your reviews

Cabana Hair Co. shows a below-average health score of 3.6 out of 10 on Google reviews, signalling room for improvement. The most important findings are strong client satisfaction evidenced by a top 10% star rating and a need to boost engagement by responding to reviews. Encouraging more reviews will help increase credibility and overall health.

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
    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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit behind half the businesses here, so a customer weighing three listings has slightly less reason to trust yours.

Where you show up on the map

Cabana Hair Co. shows an above-average health score of 5.9 out of 10 for Google Maps search visibility, indicating steady presence with room to improve. Top findings highlight strong local visibility in Woolston and good performance for several Woolston-based keywords, particularly hair salon and unisex hairdresser terms. A continued focus on listing and local signals can lift overall results.

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 nearly every business in your suburb, so a customer searching nearby sees you before most of your competition.

Where customers find you

Cabana Hair Co. shows a below-average health score of 3.8/10 in the Citations & Social Presence area, reflecting limited social and directory signal. The strongest current asset is an outstanding Facebook profile with very high trust, complemented by a presence in Yellow Directory. Focus should be on expanding on higher-trust platforms and improving listings where opportunities exist.

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.
  • ✓
    Yellow ProfileWe can see your Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/cabana-hair-co-579385720) found via: Google search results.

  • 1

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    An email addressCustomers can see an email address on the page, which gives the one who wants a quote in writing a route that does not depend on anyone picking up the phone.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    A cover photoYour page opens with a cover photo rather than a blank banner, so the first impression a visitor gets is your own work.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.
  • 3
    A phone numberNo phone number is published on your Facebook page, so someone who found you there and wants to ring has to go hunting elsewhere or send a message and wait.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Cabana Hair Co. has no published opening-hours data, so alignment with local demand cannot be confirmed. Without hours, no specific strong alignments can be shown. This makes all peak demand windows potential missed opportunities until hours are set. Priority actions: publish reliable opening hours and consider staffing to cover common salon peaks (weekday late afternoons and Saturday mornings) to capture more customers.
