01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Lush Nail Lab shows a healthy Google Business Listing with a score of 7.7 out of 10. The listing has a clear website link, a claimed status, an active phone number and open/closed indicator, which supports accessible customer contact. The main opportunity is to add more high-quality photos to strengthen local presence.

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
    Photos on the listingThere are more pictures on most listings around you than on yours, so a customer flicking between them gets a fuller look at the businesses either side of you.
  • 2
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader more than most listings here do, so a customer choosing between three of you gets more of your case than of theirs.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set covers less of this market than half the field, so there are jobs being searched for near you that your listing is not eligible to appear in.

Your reviews

Lush Nail Lab shows a below-average health score of 4.0 out of 10 on Google Business reviews, indicating room for improvement in local reputation. The most notable finding is a top-10% star rating, reflecting high customer satisfaction, paired with progress in review activity and listing size. Ongoing focus on engagement and volume is needed to move toward the midpoint.

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 rateYou have replied to a small share of your reviews, so most customers reading your page still see feedback about you with no voice from you anywhere on it.
  • 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

Lush Nail Lab shows a moderate overall health on Google Maps with steady visibility. The strongest opportunities lie in reinforcing top ranking keywords such as nail salon in hillmorton and in spreydon, and expanding suburb-focused presence to lift the borough score toward the local midpoint.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than the middle of the field, so customers searching from outside your own patch are finding you.

Where customers find you

Lush Nail Lab shows overall health of 4.7 out of 10. This indicates moderate presence with room to improve, especially in platforms beyond Facebook and Fresha. The most important findings are the very high trust score on Facebook and opportunities to expand on TikTok and GrabOne to broaden reach.

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 can see the Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/lit-lush-beauty-christchurch-18-swift-street-e9v3jqbm) found via: Google search results, but nothing on it tells us it is yours - no matching phone number, no matching address, and the name does not line up.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Lush Nail Lab's opening hours largely align with local demand: 59 peak hours open and no low-demand open hours. Strong alignment occurs midweek and late afternoons, notably Tuesday 10-11am and Wednesday 3pm, plus Thursday 4-5pm. However, Saturday midday and early afternoon are closed during notable demand spikes. Adjusting weekend availability for a few hours could capture more walk-ins and booked appointments.

    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.
