Open chair
“A 2:30 just cancelled. $5 off a cut if you can make it before 4.”
For NYC barbershop owners
Fill the
empty chair.
Saturday is booked solid. Tuesday at 2 is not. When a chair opens, Promosify helps you invite the clients who already sit in it, with a QR poster by the mirror and a flash deal sent in about a minute.
1Saturday morningEvery chair is full. Nobody needs a discount to come in.
2The Tuesday gapA cancellation, a slow walk-in hour, and a chair sitting empty.
3Your flash dealOne email to your regulars fills that chair before the hour is gone.
Why a list beats a post
Your regulars already know the shop. Reach them on purpose.
A post hopes the algorithm shows it to someone nearby. An email list goes to the people who asked to hear about an open chair.
Repeat customers spend 67% more than new customers.
of small businesses say more than half their revenue comes from repeat customers.
of brands use email to reach their loyalty members, more than any other channel.
customers say a loyalty program makes them spend more.
A Tuesday in the shop
The open chair, filled before the hour is gone.
Saturday’s rush is gone. Two chairs are open and the walk-ins haven’t started.
The QR poster by the mirror picks up a signup while a client waits for a beard trim.
A 2:30 cancelled. You open Promosify and send: “$5 off a cut if you can get here before 4. Show this ticket.”
A regular walks in, shows the ticket, and takes the open chair.
The deal ends on its own. You check claims and redemptions and decide whether to run it again next Tuesday.

The NYC barbershop playbook
Six flash deals you can send this week.
Slow Tuesday fade
“Tuesdays from 1 to 4, $5 off fades. Show this ticket at the chair.”
Beard add-on
“Add a beard trim to any cut for $5, weekdays after 2 PM.”
Rainy day cut
“It’s pouring. $5 off any adult cut until 5 if you show this ticket.”
Bring a friend
“Bring someone who’s never been in. Their first cut is $10 off.”
Weekday lineup
“Lineups $5 off before noon, Monday through Thursday.”
Keep every offer clear about the price, the hours, and how many chairs you can actually take. A ticket is not a booked appointment. You choose the details.
How it works
Three steps. About five minutes.
Hang a QR poster
Print a branded poster for the mirror, the front desk, or the window. Clients scan it and join your list in seconds. No app to download.
Send a deal when a chair opens
Pick a quick-start idea or write your own, choose when it ends, and email it to the people who asked to hear from you.
See who actually sat down
Clients show a ticket at the chair and your staff confirms it, so you count real redemptions instead of guessing who saw a post.
Questions
What barbershop owners ask us.
Do my clients need to download an app?
No. They scan the QR code with their phone camera, enter their email, and confirm it. That’s it.
I’m cutting hair, not writing marketing. How long does this take?
Setup takes about five minutes, and a flash deal takes about one. You can start from a ready-made barbershop idea and change the price and the hours.
Does the deal book the appointment?
No. The ticket is a reason to come in. You still confirm the chair the way you do now. Say so in the offer if a booking is required.
Will I annoy my regulars?
Only people who sign up hear from you, and every email has a one-click unsubscribe. You decide how often to send.
What does it cost?
The Free plan includes up to 200 subscribers and 60 email deals a month. Paid plans grow your list to 5,000 subscribers and add text messages (coming soon).
Your next full chair starts with one QR poster.
Create your account, print your QR poster, and send your first flash deal the next time a chair opens up.
