Your Google listing

Dennis Studio Beauty Hair has a very low Google Business Profile health score of 1.2 out of 10, indicating many missing elements. The listing already shows a title, phone number, full address, and a main image, but crucial gaps remain that limit visibility and customer actions.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    PhoneYour listing carries a phone number, so the call button is live for anyone who finds you on a phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Dennis Studio Beauty Hair shows a low overall health score for Google reviews, indicating room for improvement in engagement and volume. The business has achieved a top-10% star rating, reflecting high customer satisfaction, and has started collecting more reviews, but has not yet started replying to any reviews. Focus on consistent responses and increasing total reviews to lift trust and ranking.

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
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Where you show up on the map

Dennis Studio Beauty Hair shows a below-average health score of 3.9 out of 10 for Google Maps search, indicating limited overall visibility. Two key findings stand out: the business already ranks in several relevant maps queries, and suburb-specific performance is at or above the median. This suggests steady local presence with room to grow beyond the middle tier.

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 the middle of your suburb, so a customer searching nearby is likely to see you in the first handful.

Where customers find you

Dennis Studio Beauty Hair's overall health on citations and social presence is low, with a 2.6 out of 10. The most important takeaways: the business already has active Fresha profiles and listings that help visibility, but social profiles on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok have only moderate trust scores and require attention to improve discoverability.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Fresha ProfileWe can see your Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/dennis-studio-beauty-hair-riccarton-road-christchurch-YKvayY) found via: Google search results.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Dennis Studio Beauty Hair shows partial alignment between opening hours and local demand. The salon is open for key mid-day peaks-especially Wednesday and Saturday mid-days-but remains closed during several high-demand mid-week lunch and afternoon hours on Tuesday. There are no low-demand open hours, so inefficiency from unnecessary openings is not evident. Adjusting a few Tuesday hours could capture missed bookings.

    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.
