01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Cheeky Browns Hairdressing shows some listing basics in place but overall health is low at 2.1 out of 10. The listing highlights a claimed status, clear contact number, and full address, yet lacks a website link, a meaningful description, and a logo. Photos are growing, but more images remain needed to improve visibility.

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
    LogoYour listing has no logo, so in a list of local results yours is the one with a blank space where every competitor has a mark.

Your reviews

Cheeky Browns Hairdressing shows a healthy Google review performance with a 4.5/10 health score. The strongest opportunities are improving the review response rate and maintaining momentum in total reviews and rating confidence; responses to reviews can build trust, while growth in reviews supports credibility. The business should continue engagement while nudging toward higher ratings.

Where customers find you

Cheeky Browns Hairdressing shows low overall health in Citations & Social Presence with a score of 2.0/10, indicating limited social and directory visibility. The strongest asset is an outstanding Facebook profile with very high trust, while other platforms lack presence. Key opportunities include establishing active profiles on Instagram and TikTok, NoSecretSalon, LinkedIn, and a LinkedIn Company page to build local visibility and trust.

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.
  • ✓
    Yellow ProfileWe can see your Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/cheeky-browns-hairdressing-579431917) found via: Google search results.

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

Cheeky Browns' hours align well with midweek and weekend midday demand: open during Tuesday 11am-12pm and Saturday 11am-1pm, matching strong search activity. However, the salon is closed through Monday 11am-2pm and Sunday 3pm, which are locally busy. No low-demand open hours were flagged, so adjusting a few closed Monday and Sunday midday slots could increase bookings without adding off-peak waste.

    Hours aligned with demandYour hours cover some of the busy stretches but fewer than half the businesses here, which means someone ringing round on a Saturday morning reaches your competitors and your voicemail.
