01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Studio Hair shows solid basic information on Google, with a claimed listing, phone number and a live website link. However the health score is 4.5/10, indicating room for improvement. The most important findings are that the listing is claimed and open status is accurate, while the description is sparse and the logo is missing.

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
    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.
  • 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
    Photos on the listingYou have fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.

Your reviews

Studio Hair shows an above-average health score of 7.1/10, indicating solid overall performance in Google reviews. The top findings are strong engagement with reviews and steady growth in total reviews, while the rating score is improving but still below the midpoint.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Star ratingYour rating sits below what half the businesses here carry, which gives a customer choosing between three of you a reason to pick one of the others.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.

Where customers find you

Studio Hair has a below-average health score for citations and social presence, with room to strengthen profiles and listings. The most impactful findings are a strong Facebook presence and active Fresha and Yellow Directory listings, while Instagram and TikTok presence are weak, and LinkedIn is underutilised.

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.
  • ✓
    Yellow ProfileWe can see your Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/studio-hair-579400399) found via: Google search results.
  • ✓
    Fresha ProfileWe can see your Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/studio-hair-portman-street-christchurch-MxEeQJ) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    Neighbourly ProfileWe could not find an active Neighbourly Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

Strengths

  • ✓
    A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Studio Hair's opening hours largely match local demand, with strong alignment around mid-morning to early afternoon on Tuesdays (11am-1pm) and Saturday late mornings (11am-12pm). However, the salon is closed during several high-demand weekend slots-Saturday 1-2pm and Sunday midday-3pm-representing missed commercial opportunity. There are no low-demand open hours, so extending weekend coverage could be the most efficient way to capture extra bookings.
