📌 SaaS Business Idea - Help Local Barbers and Hair Salons be Discovered and Earn More

Help local hair salons boost their visibility and attract more clients with a smart discovery platform and making the booking and payment system easier than ever...

Hi, I’m Leo,

Welcome to this latest issue of SoloCodeVenture.

Today we’ll focus on building a local SaaS that helps barbers and hair salons be discovered easily, earn more and make the overall process just easier.

Before we start, if you haven’t already:

What is it about? 

Today we’re building a location and service-based discovery and booking platform for barber shops and hair salons. Customers can search by proximity, filter by services or stylist experience along with booking in real time, payment and other services all within the app.

Problem & Solution 🔍️ 

Problem to solve

Independent barbers and small salons lack both marketing budget and technical resources to build their own booking websites. And if they do, they’re often not that great + each one has a different service/sign-up process inconvenient for customers. And on the customer side: finding the right option nearby can be a hassle and often (me included) people prefer to book appointments without making calls or visiting multiple sites.

Solution to build

We can then build a two.sided directory, scheduling and payment system strictly optimized for local barbers where businesses can list their services, availability and pricing. Customers on the other side can search, book and pay in a single interface they know and trust.
