Premier Software

Around 35,000 beauty professionals descended upon Londons Excel Exhibition last weekend (24-25th of February) as this years Professional Beauty event took off, and once again the Premier Software stand proved as popular as ever.

Premier Software clients got treated to a free expert training session from our dedicated training team, while potential clients were shown how our software can help them bring their business up to date. Visitors were impressed by the new features, from online booking for clients to a free, cloud based scheduling system for smaller businesses in the form of Salonlite.

We even got people to join in with our ‘fish face’ competition, where visitors to our stand reproduced our now-infamous advert in a bid to win either free training or a free software package (winners still to be announced!).

Some users may have experienced issues when trying to access salonlite.com on Saturday, 12th of January, for a period of between 30 minutes to an hour.

We take these matters very seriously, and we have spoken with the company who manage the hosting for Salonlite in order to ensure that this matter does not occur again.

Please accept our apologies if you were affected.

Our American visitors will have an important decision to make over the next few days; should they display 12 hour or 24 hour time?

Due to the continued, explosive growth of our free online salon and spa scheduling software Salonlite internationally, we’ve discovered that some Salonlite users over the other side of the Atlantic have a preference for a standard 12 hour clock rather than 24 hour, as well as some slight differences in wording and date formatting.

To make things as easy as possible, we’ve listened to your requests and made a few changes.

We’re always looking for new ways to improve our software, and we’ve often found that the key to knowing what to build into the system next comes from the people using it, as Salonlite users have found via the social support page where they’ve been able to raise requests.

We’ve kept a close eye on requests, and are pleased to announce new features to Salonlite, which you’ll see listed below

Text messages are a great way to automatically remind clients of their pending treatment, adding a little extra customer service while ensuring that you don’t miss out on a valuable appointment.

If you’re using Premier software, setting up automatic SMS reminders is simple; in this post, we’ll be showing you how to set up Salonlite.
