WE ASKED INDUSTRY LEADERS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT TECHNOLOGICAL AND INDUSTRY TRENDS THEY SEE ON THE HORIZON AND HOW THEY THINK THESE CHANGES AND INNOVATIONS WILL SHAPE OUR WAY OF DOING BUSINESS IN THE FUTURE.

Technology in the Salon Industry with James Rowe, Rogers Software

The industry as we see it is floating between a SaaS (Software as a Service) environment and a local access to data when the internet is down. SuperSalon is the solution for this.  Our new product, the Data Analytics Tool (DAT) is due out this summer. It’s a mobility app designed for the on-the-go business owner, with graphs and goal measurements.

Loyalty, Email/SMS marketing integrated with online booking and GeoFencing round out the trends we are seeing. Our simply powerful data helps owners acquire more business and increase sales with the guests they already serve.”
