Your Google listing

Christa Louise Beauty shows a low overall Google Business Listing health score with room for improvement in key areas. The listing has a complete address and a valid phone number, which supports local discovery, while the description is well written and ranks highly for clarity. Current strengths include ownership control and visible contact details that help convert interest into inquiries.

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
    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.
  • 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

Christa Louise Beauty shows a below-average Google review health score of 3.9 out of 10, indicating room for improvement in customer engagement and review volume. The business has a strong star rating, placing it in the top 10% for satisfaction, and has made progress on total reviews. A key immediate focus is improving the response rate to reviews to build trust with customers.

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 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.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.

Where you show up on the map

Christa Louise Beauty shows a below-average health score for Google Maps search visibility, with a 4.0 out of 10. This indicates limited overall visibility, but there are clear gaps to improve. Top findings include strong ranking for several local beauty terms in Merivale and Strowan, such as beautician and beauty salon in Merivale (both positions 2). This suggests focus areas for growth lie in expanding borough presence and maintaining high local relevance.

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 less often than half your suburb, so on a search from nearby you sit below businesses a customer would otherwise treat as equal.

04Listings and socialMarketbase business report

Where customers find you

Christa Louise Beauty shows a below-average health score for social and directory presence, at 3.9/10. The strongest proof is the very high-rated Facebook profile, while other profiles like TikTok and Fresha are missing or weak. Immediate focus should be on leveraging the solid Facebook presence and building missing profiles to improve reach and trust among customers.

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.

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.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Recommendations on your pageYour count sits above the middle of this market, so a visitor reading the page finds enough written by other people to stop needing anything written by you.
  • 3
    Where your page link pointsYour page points customers at a booking system or directory rather than a site of your own.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Christa Louise Beauty currently has no published opening hours, so alignment with Christchurch demand patterns cannot be confirmed. Because hours are missing, the studio is effectively treated as closed during local peak search times - a clear missed opportunity. Adding accurate hours would reveal where current availability matches high-demand windows and where late or weekend openings could capture more bookings.
