01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Lyttel Beauty shows an average overall health with room for improvement on the Google Business Listing. Key strengths include a claimed listing with full contact details, an open-for-business status, and a complete street address, which help customers reach and visit. The absence of a website link and a brief description limit discoverability and engagement.

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
    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.
11 checks on your Google listing. You're seeing 6 of them.

Your reviews

Lyttel Beauty shows a low overall health score on Google reviews, indicating room for improvement in customer engagement and volume. The top strength is a high star rating placing it in the top 10% of local peers, reflecting strong satisfaction among customers. Key opportunities include boosting review volume, improving response rate to reviews, and continuing to nurture high service standards.

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

Lyttel Beauty shows above-average health in Maps Search with a 6.9/10 overall health score. The strongest result is borough-specific visibility in Lyttelton, where rankings sit in the top 10% and remain solid with room to refine. The business benefits from leading keywords for its services and location.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Maps visibility in your own suburbNo business in your suburb turns up in local Maps searches more often than you do - for a customer searching nearby, you are among the first names on the screen.

Top opportunity

  • 1
    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

Lyttel Beauty shows low overall health in citations and social presence, with a 1.7 out of 10. The strongest asset is an outstanding Facebook profile with very high trust, supported by a listing in the Yellow Directory. Opportunities include adding a TikTok and LinkedIn presence, improving the Fresha profile, and aligning Instagram with business details to raise 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.
  • ✓
    White Pages ListingWe can see your White Pages Listing listing (https://whitepages.co.nz/lyttel-beauty-lyttelton) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page through search alone, with no link from your own website and nothing on your Google listing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    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.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    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
    A page address you choseYour page address is one Facebook generated rather than one you chose - your business name with a long number bolted on, or just the number.
  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Lyttel Beauty's published hours match several high-demand windows midweek, notably Wednesday 2-4pm and Thursday 3-4pm. However, the salon is closed for many other popular times, particularly on Saturday early afternoon and late-morning Tuesday and Thursday. No open hours fall in low-demand periods. Adjusting a few opening slots to cover missed peak windows could increase bookings without adding wasteful hours.
