Persuading a stranger that your business is safe to buy from. Topics include the trust signals a small rental website needs, how to ask for and collect customer reviews, and the reassurance patients look for before booking with a clinic they have never visited.
Most practices leave prices off and ask people to ring. That decision is made for good reasons and it costs more enquiries than it saves.
Hair length, thickness and what the last salon did all change the price. A single figure is either a promise you break or a number that scares people off.
Buyers filter, then read, then enquire, in that order. What a sales listings site needs to survive that sequence, and why the fields people filter on are a much shorter list than the fields they read.
Hiding prices does not stop people judging the price. It stops the ones who could afford you from finding out. When to publish, when not to, and five ways to show a number without a price list.
