DOUGLAS, GA – A new hair styling establishment, Scissorhands Salon & Boutique, is opening in downtown Douglas. Owner and local artist Shanda Griffin is hosting a pre-open event and art exhibit to launch her new salon.

The pre-open event and art exhibit will be held at the salon on Saturday, March 31, 2012, 5:00 – 9:00pm. There will be live music, complimentary refreshments, featured art from local artists across South Georgia, and an opportunity to win free services and products from the salon. Attendance is not required to win; register online for opportunity to win without attending. There is no cover or entrance charge for this event.

The event is expected to have a large turnout and Griffin hopes it will be a great opportunity for her to celebrate her grand opening with everyone and to meet other community members with an appreciation of art, fashion, and hair.

"I want everyone to come by for the celebration, and I want everyone to have a chance to check out my salon before it opens," says Griffin, “we have a lot of great jewelry and fashion finds in our boutique and I want everyone to get a chance to enjoy it all!”

Scissorhands Salon & Boutique will be a full service hair care and styling salon with additional services including manicures, nail art, make-up, waxing, and more. They will offer a large variety of unique jewelry and gifts, all available at www.ScissorhandsBeauty.com.

The salon is located at 229 North Madison Avenue in Douglas, next to Video Warehouse and across from the Brian Street Gym, and will open after the final inspection, expected within two weeks. They will announce the opening on their Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/scissorhands.salonandboutique.

For more information on the salon, to schedule appointments after April 1, 2012, or to inquire about currently open positions in the salon, please call (912) 327 - 8254.

Scissorhands Salon & Boutique will be managed by Griffin and her mother Lavonda Adkins. Griffin, who is also the creative mind behind the accessory line Catastrophique (www.catastrophique.org) will serve as lead stylist. Adkins, with previous business management experience, will oversee operations as general manager of the salon.

The salon is being marketed by Brandon J. Carver, long-time friend of Griffin, and owner of iAdministrative Internet Marketing, and website editor for the salon.

Why Should My Small Business Publish a Blog?

Publishing a blog is a great way to market your small business on the internet. Millions of people search for information daily on the internet, researching products, services, even looking for the latest in style and in fashion. By simply sharing information about your products and services, you can be providing the content that internet users find to make decisions.

You can feed parts of your blog into your website, offering fresh content that changes periodically when you do a new blog. You can set up your blog to only post certain articles to certain areas, making for a free or inexpensive content management system. Plus, a little fresh content here and there on your website can really keep it from feeling stagnant, giving internet users a reason to come back, check out your website, and recommend it to a friend.

By adding social elements to your blog posts, you are making your content easier to be shared and recommended from one internet user to the next. Social buttons like the Facebook Like Button and the Twitter Tweet Button are today's word of mouth advertising - with one click, all of their friends will see your information!

In addition to social recommendations, all blog posts can be subscribed to by internet users' own feed readers. If a reader thinks you post useful or interesting information, they may subscribe to your blog so they can receive all of your posts without even visiting your site! Users also have the ability to receive your blog posts in their email inbox to read at their own convenience.

As if the reasons above are not good enough, consider this: every blog entry you make creates a new page of relevant content linking to your website. The more links pointing back to your website, the higher your page ranking will be in search engines. Additionally, blog posts themselves are likely to perform really well in search engines.

If you do not currently have a blog and are interested in getting one up and running, call iAdministrative Internet Marketing & Website Development today at 239-601-3985. We can help you get started and even work with you to generate fresh content that is relevant to your small business website to help increase search engine rankings and internet visibility. Blog management is a part of our internet marketing management, but we will be glad to quote you a price for blog management only.
