Writing a listing that gets enquiries

Renters decide in seconds. What to photograph, what to write and what to leave out so the right people get in touch.

Photos do most of the work

The first thing a renter sees is your cover photo. Shoot in daylight, clear the counters, and take the picture from the doorway so people can see the whole space.

Add a close-up of the chair or treatment bed, the workstation, and anything shared like a basin or waiting area. Three or four honest photos beat ten dark ones.

Describe the salon, not just the space

Renters are choosing who they will work alongside. Say what kind of salon you are, who your clients are, and what a normal day feels like. Calm and appointment-only reads very differently from busy and walk-in.

Cover the practical questions

A short list of the basics saves you answering the same message over and over.

  • Opening hours, and whether renters can work outside them
  • What equipment and products are provided
  • Parking and public transport nearby
  • Which treatments suit the space

Reply quickly

People looking for a chair or room often need one soon. Enquiries land in your FindMy.beauty inbox and by email, so a quick reply is the easiest way to stand out from the other salons they have messaged.
