01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Style Plus shows a very low overall health score for its Google Business Listing, with clear gaps in claimed status, website link, description, photos and logo. The strongest current assets are the open-for-business status, a listing title, a phone number, a full address and a main image, which provide basic accessibility and localisation.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    PhoneYour listing carries a phone number, so the call button is live for anyone who finds you on a phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Style Plus shows a below-average health score of 3.8 out of 10, indicating room for improvement in Google review performance. The strongest current finding is a top-10% star rating, reflecting high customer satisfaction. A key gap is lack of response to reviews, which can affect customer trust and engagement.

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 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.
  • 3
    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.

Where you show up on the map

Style Plus shows a strong overall health in Google Maps search with an 8.2 out of 10. The business ranks highly in borough searches, especially for key keywords like hair salon in hoon hay and unisex hairdresser in hoon hay, which support steady local visibility. The main opportunity is to improve aggregate map search results further.

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

Style Plus shows very low presence health (0.2/10) in the SUMMARY CONTEXT, indicating limited visibility on third-party platforms. The strongest current positives are established listings on Fresha, including a fully updated Fresha profile and a Fresha directory presence, plus a Yellow Directory listing that boosts local visibility. Key opportunities focus on activating Instagram and Facebook, and adding TikTok, a NoSecretSalon listing, and LinkedIn presence to broaden reach.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Yellow ProfileWe can see your Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/style-plus-579477299) found via: Google search results.
  • ✓

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    A cover photoYour page opens with a cover photo rather than a blank banner, so the first impression a visitor gets is your own work.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageNo recommendations sit on your page, so a stranger who came to see whether anyone else has used you leaves with only your own posts to go on.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Style Plus shows partial alignment between published hours and local hair-salon demand. The salon is open during several strong Saturday and Tuesday midday peaks, which matches customer search patterns. However it misses a cluster of Monday lunchtime hours and Sunday mid-afternoon demand when closed. There are no clear low-demand open hours, so any hour changes should focus on adding Monday lunchtime or Sunday afternoon trading where commercially viable.

    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.
