More than 25 beauty professionals under one roof and a steady stream of reels. Their current Meta ad puts five monthly specials in one ad and sends people to the home page, so nobody lands on the service they came for.
Split the menu into three lead services, each with its own ads and its own booking link. Reuse the lash-lift and Hydrafacial reels they already have, and run a separate ring for clients who drive in from the mid-island.
What we lead with
The services with the best ticket size and photos, and the ones rivals nearby do not sell.
