Pro Beauty is a beauty salon in New York offering hair, nails, skin and other treatments. Salon search is local and immediate - 'nail salon near me', 'hair salon' plus the neighbourhood, a specific treatment - and clients choose from the map on photos, ratings and whether the listing shows the service they want. In New York the competition is measured in blocks, not miles. The salon had a full book of regulars and no Google Business Profile, so it was invisible to the new clients who search.
We created the profile and built it to show the salon's full range. Keyword research for the profile identified the treatment searches with real volume - haircuts and colour, manicure and pedicure, gel nails, facials, waxing, lashes and brows - and the neighbourhood terms clients add to them. Competitor analysis reviewed the salons appearing in the map results: categories, review counts, photo quality and how completely they listed services.
Categories were set with beauty salon as primary and the specific treatment categories - hair salon, nail salon, facial spa - as secondaries so the profile can appear for each type of search. Every service was created and described with keywords and prices, and the business description was written around the search terms, the salon's specialties and the booking process. Photos were added and optimized: the salon interior, stations, products and, most importantly, finished work - nails, colour, styles - because clients book what they can see.
A review campaign invited regular clients to share their experience, every review was checked and answered warmly, and four keyword-based posts showcased treatments, seasonal offers and the team. Positions for the target searches were monitored after launch and services adjusted to what was generating views and calls.
Pro Beauty gained a complete, visual Google listing covering every treatment it offers, competing for the salon searches in its neighbourhood with photos, reviews and a full service menu.
Salon profiles compete on freshness. A listing whose last photo is a year old loses to one that posted a new colour transformation this week, so alongside the initial build we set up a routine the salon could sustain: one photo of finished work per visit day, a post every week featuring a treatment or an offer, and a review request sent after every appointment with a direct link. The salon's team was shown how to do each from a phone in under a minute. The profile's four launch posts were written to that template so the staff had examples to follow rather than a blank page.
Salons and nail studios across Metro Vancouver compete in exactly these listings. North SEO's GBP Optimisation builds a salon profile around its work and its full treatment list, and GBP Management keeps photos, posts and reviews flowing so the listing stays booked.
