01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Skyhawk Beauty's Google Business Listing shows a below-average health score with solid basic details. The listing has a claimed status, a visible phone number and full address, and an open-for-business indicator. A strong description and photo count exist, but the main opportunity lies in adding a website link to improve customer access.

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 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.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

Your reviews

Skyhawk Beauty shows below-average overall Google review health (4.1/10) but exhibits a strong rating and improving visibility. The business has secured a top-10% star rating and is gathering more reviews, yet has not responded to any reviews. The main takeaway is to start engaging with customers publicly while continuing the solid rating attainment.

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 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.
  • 2
    Review countYour review count sits under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.
  • 3
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit ahead of half the field here, so a customer has enough to go on and no reason to hesitate.

04Listings and socialMarketbase business report

Where customers find you

Skyhawk Beauty shows an average health of 5.4/10 for social presence and directories, indicating room for improvement. The strongest asset is a very high-trust Facebook profile, supporting credibility. A notable opportunity is strengthening TikTok and GrabOne presence to reach broader, possibly younger, customers. Existing Fresha and Yellow Directory listings also help local discoverability.

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.
  • ✓
    Fresha ProfileWe can see your Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/skyhawk-beauty-christchurch-29-denise-crescent-hornby-6z1u6mxf) found via: Google search results.

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.

Your hours against demand

Skyhawk Beauty's opening hours largely match local demand, with 45 well-aligned peak hours out of 46 weekly hours and no low-demand open hours. Strong alignment includes weekday afternoons and a Saturday early afternoon. Missed opportunities appear mostly on Saturday afternoons and Monday/Sunday mid-days when searches are still high. Consider modestly extending Saturday into mid-afternoon and opening Monday 2pm or Sunday 1pm to capture more bookings.
