This guide will help you understand the benefits and potential drawbacks of each program, allowing you to make an informed decision that aligns with your business goals and budget.
Pros and Cons of HEDS vs. PBPS
HEDS (Hair Extension Discount Subscription)
Pros:
Fixed Discounts: Subscribers lock in a set discount rate per extension ($5, $10, or $15), providing predictable savings.
Complimentary Gifts: Each subscription tier offers valuable complimentary gifts like the Dream Weave Extension Kit and significant store credits or free bookings for courses, enhancing the overall value.
Structured Plans: The clear structure of 6-month and 1-year plans makes it easy to choose based on usage needs and budget.
Ideal for Predictable Usage: Perfect for those with consistent, high-volume extension needs, allowing for better budgeting and planning.
Immediate Benefits: Subscribers receive immediate benefits and discounts without needing to accumulate purchases.
Cons:
Commitment: Locked into a subscription for 6 months or a year, which may not be suitable for those whose usage varies.
Limited Flexibility: Subscribers cannot adjust their plan mid-term if their needs change.
Potential Underutilization: If a subscriber's usage decreases, they may not fully utilize the benefits, leading to potential underutilizing the nominated subscription.
Exclusive to B2B: Only available to B2B salons and stylists with a registered ABN, limiting accessibility to individual or non-registered buyers.
PBPS (Progressive Bulk Pricing System)
Pros:
Flexible Spending: No large upfront payment; discounts are based on cumulative spending over a quarter, providing flexibility.
Scalable Discounts: As spending increases, so do the discounts, encouraging more purchases and rewarding loyalty.
Cash Flow Management: Allows for smaller, more manageable purchases, which can help with cash flow and inventory management.
Customizable Tiers: Pricing tiers can be adjusted based on market conditions and business needs, offering more personalized savings.
Ease of Use: Automatic tracking and tier adjustment streamline the process, reducing administrative burden.
Cons:
Uncertain Discounts: Discounts are not locked in and depend on quarterly spending, leading to less predictability.
Initial Spend Requirement: New accounts start at the Platinum tier, but achieving higher discounts requires consistent spending.
Potential for Lower Savings: Without consistent high spending, businesses may not reach the higher discount tiers, resulting in lower overall savings compared to HEDS.
Exclusive to B2B: Only available to B2B salons and stylists with a registered ABN, limiting accessibility to individual or non-registered buyers.
