How to bring in salons

Everything you need to pitch Studioloop confidently — the offer, the right targets, and answers to the questions you'll actually get.

The offer in one sentence

"Sign up through my link and you get 20% off your first month. After that it's $59–$129/month and you get a full booking system, automated reminders, loyalty, a gift card shop, and a phone AI that takes calls when you're busy with clients."

The 20% discount is real and automatic — your referral link applies it at checkout, no code needed (though the code works too).

Who to go after

Best-fit salons share most of these:

  • Still booking by phone or a paper diary — there's a clear pain to solve
  • 1 to 4 locations — solo owner or a small group; they move fast and feel the problem personally
  • Have a Google Business listing or Instagram with real clients — not a ghost account
  • Mentioned no-shows, being too busy to answer calls, or wanting more repeat clients — any of these is a buying signal

The biggest commission tier is 3+ locations ($90 signing + 30%/mo), but 1-location salons on the Team plan are the sweet spot for volume — faster decision, same recurring commission rate.

Objections you'll run into

"We already use Vagaro / Fresha / Square."

Those tools are fine for basic scheduling, but they don't have an AI phone receptionist, built-in loyalty tiers, or a gift card shop that works without a separate app. Compare them head-to-head at studioloop.app/compare. The migration is free — we move their services, team, and hours from their website.

"We don't have time to set it up."

That's exactly what the done-for-you setup covers. You build their salon from their existing website — services, staff, hours — before they even log in. They just review, approve, and go live. It takes you under an hour; it takes them about 10 minutes.

"Does it actually work? We've been burned before."

Fair. The honest answer is: try it free for 30 days, no card required. If it doesn't work for them after a real try, they walk away with nothing owed. And because you're the one building the first setup, they go live on day one instead of stalling on a blank screen.

"What does it cost after the trial?"

Solo owner: $59/month. A salon with staff on the Team plan: $129 for one location, and it caps at $399 for four or more. Annual billing saves about two months' cost. First month is 20% off with your link.

Close faster with a done-for-you setup

When a salon says yes, come back here, hit Provision, and build their entire account from their website. They land in a working system on day one — no "I'll get to it" limbo.
