Google Review QR Code for Barbershops
A great barbershop becomes a community hub - guys find a barber they trust and keep coming back for years. Google reviews help new customers discover your shop and feel confident in their first visit. A QR code makes it easy for your loyal clients to spread the word.
Best Places to Display Your QR Code
Strategic placement is key. Here are the most effective locations for barbershops:
1Mirrors at each barber station
Clients can scan right after you show them the finished cut. They are holding their phone to check it out anyway.
2Waiting area
Guys waiting for their turn have time to pull out phones and scan. Place a sign with QR code where they sit.
3Cash register / payment area
QR code stand at the register lets clients scan while paying.
4Business cards
Add QR code to business cards. Great for referrals - clients can share your card with the review link.
