01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

The Google Business Listing health for Salon.5.Kaiapoi sits at 2.6 of 10, indicating a low overall state. Key strengths include a claimed listing, clear phone number, and a full address. The most important concerns are missing website link and logo, which limit visibility and branding, while description and photos show room for improvement.

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
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.

Your reviews

Salon.5.Kaiapoi shows an above-average health score of 6.2 out of 10 for Google reviews, indicating overall solid performance with room to grow. The business already excels in customer engagement and satisfaction, reflected in a top-10% star rating and elite response rate. The main takeaway is maintaining high service standards while gradually expanding feedback volume.

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.
  • ✓
    Response rateYou answer virtually every review, which almost nobody in this market does, and the page reads as a business that is present.

Top two 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.

Incredible service by Robyn! Professional and friendly, she always makes me fall in love with my nails again. I work in gardening and you wouldn’t even know it by the time she’s done. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Where customers find you

Salon's health sits at 5.2 out of 10, indicating average presence with room to grow across platforms. The strongest recent result is a high-trust Facebook profile, reinforcing brand credibility among existing customers. An established Yellow Directory and a Fresha listing also support local visibility and service discovery.

Strengths

  • ✓

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Salon.5.Kaiapoi's hours partly match local demand, with 19 well-aligned peak-hour openings but 58 missed high-demand hours. Strong alignment occurs midweek and at Saturday lunchtime, and there are no low-demand open hours, so no obvious wasted hours. Key missed windows are late afternoon on Thursday, Saturday mid-afternoon and midweek late afternoons - these are worth considering for extended or adjusted opening times.
