Bookings, month one
The salon website brings together hair and beauty services, salon imagery and booking links. The image shows the delivered website, not an advertising report.
In April 2026, month one, two campaigns brought 104 messaging conversations from A$643.66 in ad spend, and the salon tracked 44 bookings. These are one client's historical figures, not a promise for yours. Conversations and bookings are different measures.
I'm based in Rockhampton, so I know the Rocky market first-hand. No Brisbane shopfront guesswork.
No long agency onboarding. I set up your campaign and make changes myself, so there's no relay race.
One call to the person actually doing the work. No account managers, no relay race.
Ads, socials and website pulling in the same direction, so no lead slips between three providers.
HOW WE COMPARE
The same work, three ways to get it. Here is how working with one local person stacks up against an agency and going it alone.
