You can also get more information about us from our Marketing and PR Liaison MPR in Dublin. Further, We are in the process of becoming associated members of the IHF. In fact, if you are a member of The Irish Hairdressing Federation you have been sent information about our service/proposal via their members newsletter.

As you can see we are serious about our business and put a great deal of effort in ensuring we are transparent in our approach and intent. Our business model might uitilise an innovative approach but if you think about it, where would we be without innovation? Apart from that, our credentials can be verified at any time.

We are always looking to increase the number of participating salons to offer our customers the flexibility of being able to pick a salon close to them. If you would like to become a participation salon for the service just contact us and one of the team will get back to you to discuss it. The system is easy, seamless and fast. We have everything in place to sign up salons to the scheme and integrate their details within our site and systems. It costs you Nothing. Yes, you have read it right. Zero Cost to you. All you have to do to join is make contact with us.

What is in this for you?

Increase in revenue: We are bringing in new business, which, pro rata,can be converted to a recurring increase when the customer returns to the salon for other services;
Increased customer base: We are bringing in new customers that perhaps do not know the salon or have never thought about visiting it;
Free publicity: considering the scope of our publicity campaign, our associated salons benefits Tremendously when it comes to media exposure.
A link to your web site from our site OR if you do not have a website a page on our site absolutely FREE.

Why does the service work? Because it is a win-win for all concerned, i.e.:

- It benefits the customers

The set price is lower than standard price, plus it is more convenient to go to one location as opposed of make-up counter and hairdressing salon. In particular when the customer selects the location that is more convenient to her;

- It benefits existing salons

Let's be honest here. Most businesses are suffering from the effect of the economical climate. The Scheme allows hairdressing salons to attain more business without incurring costs;

- It benefits our company

Obviously! We wouldn't still be in business if we were not able to draw revenue from the service. For us though, the revenue route is via volume business. We don't actually draw much per customer. We are not greedy. It also affords us strong links with the Industry.

If you would like more information or to sign up to the scheme just call or e-mail us partners@makeupfablicious.com

How does the scheme work?

Simply it works the following way:

- You contact us to join;

- We pay you a visit to ensure the salon is suitable. If so, we add you to our list of participating salons and to our web site.

- You receive our starter pack and return the signed inter-business agreement to us. The agreement is a formality to state your company and MakeupFabLicious are neither a partnership nor a joint venture;

- From then on, we deal with the customers calling us for the combo service. For the purpose of the service, We are responsible for appointments and cancellations. Also for reminding the customers of appointments via SMS to avoid No-shows;

- We send one of our Make-up artists to your salon for appointments; She will ideally be local to your salon and be the make-up artist assigned to the salon. This facilitates the workflow and logistics.

- The customer pays the full amount at your salon and you pay us what we are due weekly; Yes. We even give you a credit line!

Simple. Fast. Efficient.

Your salon too small ?

The beautiful thing about the service is that the make-up artists are not based at the salons. They visit salons for arranged appointments only, take minimum space and work in conjunction with one of your hair personnel to deliver the service. Just remember that our make-up artists have worked in fashion shows and other venues where space is minimum.

What about Insurance ?

All of our make-up artists are insured. Your public liability is not affected by the make-up artist being there.

You already have a make-up artist there or you sell make-up. Can you join?

Having a contracted/employed make-up artist at your salon costs you money. Our scheme makes you money!

In regards to the make-up, well, if it is of high quality, having us there using it could be a very nice way to increase sales. Also, if the make-up you sell is up to our standards, perhaps it can be sold at our shop at a later stage, increasing sales and branding for your make-up products.

One of your people called us and we turned MakeupfabLicious down. We have had a change of mind. Can the salon join the scheme now?

We forgive you. lol

Seriously now, yes , of course. We understand you have to do what you think is best for your business. We accept any suitable salon and we offer all salons the chance to increase revenue. In fact, we do more than that. Participating salons draw more revenue per customer than MakeupFabLicious. Interesting, isn't it? We bring you customers AND allow you to keep most of the fee. We are not just being nice. It works for us too.
