Retail Product Management

When a product finds itself on your shelf, Simple Salon knows it’s there thanks to our salon stock management. It also knows when it’s sold and who bought it, and when all the others are sold too, at which point, Simple Salon knows you need to order some more.

Professional Use Product Management

The handling, organisation and ordering of professional products used during your clients’ appointments can be easily managed with Simple Salon by our salon stock management tools. Track and record the usage of your professional products by scanning them through POS under Internal Use. The product quantities are updated in real time to ensure that the system will always know what professional use products need re-ordering, and when. Orders can be automatically generated at the click of a button and then emailed directly to the product supplier so you’ll never have to manually worry about your salon stock management again!

Stock Reporting

At any time you can run the Stock On Hand Report to see precisely what products you have in stock right now, as well as the retail value and wholesale value of your current stock. This is also the report you use when running stocktake. Simply walk around the shop with your tablet and update the product quantities directly from the Stock On Hand Report as you go. Stocktake has never been simpler thanks to our salon inventory management systems, you’re welcome!

Supplier Management

Forget printing orders or saving them as files and attaching them to emails. Gone are those days. Instead, just one click from the order form itself, the order will be directly emailed to the supplier. Then, when the order is delivered, simply Save & Receive the order in Simple Salon and the product quantities will be automatically updated. Salon stock management systems have never been so simple!

Stock Quantities

There are 3 product quantity figures that work hard behind the scenes so you don’t have too: Minimum Quantity, Maximum Quantity, and Quantity. With these levels set, the salon stock management system will know how many products you have and when you need to re-order. The Min Qty tells the ordering system when a product needs re-ordering; the Max Qty tells the system how many to re-order; and the Qty is how many you have right now. Therefore, all you need to do is set these numbers for each product then forget about it. The Simple Salon stock management ordering system does the rest.

Product Marketing

Simple Salon knows who buys what, making it possible for you to encourage your clients to keep coming to you for the products they love. Run a promotion on one of the brands you stock and target the clients who purchase the products in that range. By using the Clients who purchased a product marketing option, you can build a tailored list of clients who purchase that brand’s products, or even a specific product, then email or SMS those clients directly from the list. In doing so, you are encouraging your customers to buy their favourite products from you, rather than from elsewhere, making your products their go-tos.

FAQ

Do you have questions? We have the answers!

We've collected the most popular questions about our software and detailed answers so you can easily learn everything that matters.

Can I transfer my data?

Yep, you sure can. We get loads of people switching from other salon software, and we can even help you figure out how to do it (hint, it’s not hard). You can also download your data from Simple Salon at any time.

Will my staff be able to take my clients?

No. Client records, visit history and contact details live in YOUR business account, not in anyone's personal phone. Access levels let each staff member see only what they need, and your data is exportable by you, any time.

I run everything on paper. How hard is the switch?

Easier than you think. We'll help you move your paper book and client list across, and most salons are up and running within a day. There's nothing to install, so it works in the browser you already have.

Can I use my existing device?

Yes, you can. As long as your existing device isn’t a manual typewriter. Simple Salon works with any computer, tablet, or smartphone with internet connectivity. You can even use your phone’s hotspot to connect to Simple Salon in hard to reach places.

Is there anything to install?

Nothing to install. Simple Salon works in any of your normal browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Brave. Get going today, as soon as you sign up.

Is it safe?

We invest heavily in the most secure technology available. We use the same technology used for banks to keep your data YOUR data alone. For anyone who needs to know, the servers are in Australia.

Can I get training?

Sure can. We offer a range of videos to help you get started quickly and easily. And if you’d like a personal training session as well, we offer an online session (2 hours, on the phone). Get in touch for pricing, or request a time for personal training here.

Is it capped? I have a lot of operators.

Yes, your salon software pricing is capped. If you have 7 or more operators, the price you will be billed is capped at 7.

E.g. If you have 12 operators showing, on the Starter plan, your cost will be 7 x US$20 = US$140 per month (US), or 7 x A$25 = A$175 per month (Australia & NZ). The same cap applies in every region, and all prices exclude tax.

What does the included SMS mean?

Everyone loves SMS messaging, but it can be expensive. To help make SMS more affordable, you have the option of choosing one of our plans that add SMS credits to your account each month.

There are plans that include up to 300 SMS per operator. For a small extra monthly fee the SMS credits are automatically added to your account for your reminders and marketing needs.

E.g. If you have 5 operators showing, on the Pro plan that includes 200 SMS credits per operator, your cost will be 5 x A$45 = A$225 per month (Australia & NZ), or 5 x US$34 = US$170 per month (US), with 1000 SMS credits included.

Are the included SMS locked to each operator?

No, the SMS credits are added to your Simple Salon account each month and are available to be used across your business for your reminders, marketing and other SMS requirements. You can purchase additional credits if required.

Can switching to a salon booking app increase business?

Yep! Switching to an online booking app will increase your business, here’s why. We all know how tedious it can be to book appointments over the phone. From finding the number, to waiting on hold, to frantically flipping through your diary whilst the receptionist waits for you to confirm your appointment, you probably have chills just thinking about it!

But we’ve changed all that thanks to our salon booking software. Our salon software apps make it easy for your clients to book and rebook appointments at the touch of a button, so no matter where you are, or what you’re up to you can make sure you secure that much needed appointment.

Gone are the days of waiting for a callback to confirm your appointment, it’s time to get with the program and implement salon booking software for your business. Build customer loyalty with the option to book online, as well as with our salon loyalty software and you’ll have clients that keep coming back time and time again. Who doesn’t love more business, right?
