A One-of-a-Kind Barber Shop’s Secret to a Strong Online Reputation

Jay’s BarberShop has managed to build the kind of reputation any business owner would envy, and to learn a little more about that reputation and this one-of-a-kind business, we sat down with the owner, Jay himself.

The first thing we wanted to know was what makes Jay’s BarberShop unique compared to the many other barber shops in Maine. Jay told us:

“There is no one other barber shop around that offers that atmosphere we provide. We are the only traditional barbershop within 25 miles. We have an eccentric barbershop, and we also have every type of instrument, including guitars, a ukulele, a piano and a drum set. It really is a unique place where everyone gets to learn how to play music and can come to get a haircut. We strive to create a place where you want to hang out, not where you want to work.”

When we asked what the secret is to such a solid online reputation at Jay’s BarberShop, Jay pointed to the great customer service they provide each and every day, and said:

“You don’t have to convince anyone of anything.”

Making the World a Better Place by Building Confidence

We also wanted to know what their mission is at Jay’s BarberShop and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Jay had to say:

“From the root of the service, we make people feel better about who they are and how they feel. We build confidence for people about to go to an interview or a wedding. The music aspect is important, and we encourage people that they can learn music no matter what stage of life they are in.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Jay’s BarberShop has grown through billboards and the visibility that comes from being located on a main road; however, according to Jay, more of their business comes from word of mouth.

It’s clear that Jay knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s his expert advice for the many other business owners out there:

“Take the chance, and take a gamble on yourself. Don’t wait; just do it and get started.”
