Welcome to Active Salon - Salon Management Software

Active Salon is a salon management system that has been designed to increase your profit. The software contains a number of facilities which will dramatically improve all aspects of your business, quickly and effectively. Below are some of the powerful features Active Salon software provides leading beauty, nail, hair and tanning salons.

Active Salon management software contains impressive reports and mailing lists that you can use at any time to communicate with your customers. The mailing list manager takes the pain out of communication. You can send letters, emails or even SMS messages quickly and easily*. It helps you keep communication between your salon and clients more personal and helps sustain the relationship. The SMS feature can be used to inform clients of current promotional offers in your salon plus available time slots to maximise potential appointments sales. Reduce missed appointments and potential profit loss by using the SMS feature to remind customers of their appointments. The conformation system allows you to reply to their response, making it possible for you to reschedule clients who are not able to attend their original appointments. The SMS feature is easy to use and cost effective for your salon. By using the Mailing List facility you can target specific clients with relevant promotions, offers or information, for example: clients with a birthday in the next month could be sent a card with a gift voucher enclosed. Clients that have spent x amount in the salon could be sent a voucher, free gift or extra loyalty point or by finding out which clients buy a certain product regularly these clients could be then targeted and introduced to a new complementary product.

Active Salon management software not only holds a superior amount of data on your clients spending habits, routines, likes and dislikes but also the functionality of your business. By using this information which Active Salon software stores effectively you can build relationships with your clients, encourage higher spending, increase referrals, win back lost customers and develop the salon to achieve your goals.

Active Salon management software includes very flexible promotions and discount functions, which enable you to design effective promotions. Promotions help to increase your sales and Active Salon software makes it easy to create different promotions and implement them. The promotions can be used all the time or can be set to just certain times of the day or week. The promotions can even be put on individual sessions, products and clients. The promotions features can help generate sales for different services, a new product range, stylist or at quieter times of the week. If you promote your salon using discount websites such as Groupon, you can use Active Salon management software to record which new clients were gained by the promotion and add the deal to their account.
Vouchers are a great gift idea for your clients to use, they can also be given as rewards to your clients for referring a friend or a special thank you. vouchers are easily sold and redeemed with Active Salon software, there is the option of giving each voucher a unique code which is then stored in the database. The system stores when it was sold, how much the voucher is worth and if it’s been redeemed. You can also decide if the whole amount of the voucher is not used, if the client looses the money or can reuse the remaining amount another time.


Active Salon lets you easily set up courses for all types of sessions for stylist, beauty, power plates or tanning equipment. Having courses allows your customers to bulk buy a particular treatment or sessions, paying for it up front, usually at a slightly discounted price then use them within a certain time period. Encouraging clients to bulk buy treatments gives a cash injection to your business, your staff are kept busy and can provide more opportunities to up sell additional treatments and products. Each time a client has a session, their course or package is automatically adjusted by the appropriate number of credits, units or minutes.

There's no need for you to manually calculate the number of sessions remaining on each of your clients courses. It's all done for you. Active Salon management software is unique in that it can maintain any number of course types simultaneously for each client
Active Salon software allows you to implement a Loyalty Point Scheme easily. The loyalty card helps you reward your clients and you can decide how much each point worth. Earning points will encourage existing clients to spend more and encourage new clients to join.

If you want to stay ahead of your competitors, you need to make your salon work at 100%.

Your customers are crucial to your business. Active Salon's client database is second to none. In addition to the basic information such as name, address, date of birth. Active Salon management software allows you to store three telephone numbers and an email address. Unlike other systems, Active Salon software allows you to type as much information in the notes field as you require - you are not limited to two lines. In addition, there is a second 'urgent notes' field which pops up each time the customer comes into your shop to warn you of important information.

Active Salon software allows you to store a full colour digital photograph of each client. This prevents other clients trying to use courses that do not belong to them. There is also the option to add a membership card and number to the clients account. A swipe of the membership card and the client record will appear on screen or used in the appointment book to start booking an appointment for the client. As part of helping to keep your salon within the governing law, Active Salon management software gives you the option of setting up suitability questions to be answered by each new client. These questions can be added to treatments, for example, before a hair colouring treatment, a patch test has to be carried out before the actual appointment. With tick box answers, the questions are quick and easy to answer. Active Salon software will warn staff the client hasn’t had a patch test. The questions can be set up unique to your salon and treatments. A disclaimer form can also be printed out, signed and then scanned back onto the computer to be attached to the clients file.

Active Salon management software captures detailed information about your customers, including their full contact details, spending habits and favourite products and treatments. This information can then be used to help increase your profits through customer relationship management (CRM). Run several reports to find out more information on your clients, staff performance or generate marketing campaigns to build client relationships.

Run reports to see which products, stylist or promotions are most popular. The reports will show you which promotions are working and generating a profit but also those which aren’t. Active Salon management software gives you the option of creating daily, weekly, monthly and yearly targets. Setting targets provides a structure for your staff to assess their performance and clarifies what is expected as a team. The targets will help motivate your staff to sell more to reach the targets.

Active Salon software is protected by an advanced password and privilege system to ensure that your business data is kept safe. You can set up for each individual staff member how much they can use and see of Active Salon without disrupting the running of the salon. In addition, the system contains a full audit trail and transaction journal, which records all aspects of your business.
Active Salon management software continually monitors stock levels. When your stock falls below a preset threshold, it can automatically add these to your order. Once you have finished your stock reordering, it can be sent to your suppliers via email or you can print out and post the order – saving you time and reducing errors. Adding stock into the Active Salon system is simple. If you are taking delivery of an order produced through Active Salon, select the order and confirm the levels are correct. The system then uploads the delivery to current stock levels. This process is simple and saves so much time compared to manually adjusting the figures. If you receive the wrong amount, Active Salon software will adjust the level and also show it outstanding until the stock comes in.
