01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

The overall health is low, with a score of 2.6 out of 10, signaling significant gaps in the Google Business Listing. The strongest current assets are accurate business basics already in place, including a visible listing title, claimed status, a phone number and a full address. Key opportunities focus on adding a website link, a meaningful description, and a logo to improve credibility and clarity for 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
    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.

02ReviewsMarketbase business report

Your reviews

Cut&Colour shows below-average overall health on Google reviews, with room to improve overall volume and engagement. The business already benefits from a top-10% star rating indicating strong customer satisfaction, and has started collecting reviews. Continued focus on encouraging feedback and maintaining prompt responses will help build trust and gradually lift the rating and confidence.

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
    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
    Response rateYou reply to some of your reviews but not most, so a customer scrolling your page finds long stretches where nobody answered.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Cut&Colour's opening hours align well with key demand spikes, notably Tuesday late-morning and Saturday mid-day when searches are strongest. However the salon is closed across a popular Sunday lunchtime and afternoon window, creating clear missed bookings. There are no hours open during low-demand periods, so current schedule is efficient overall but could be adjusted to capture weekend demand without increasing low-value hours.
