A Beauty Service Provider spends big bucks to make their establishment an “oasis” of personal care – making operational efficiency and cost-cutting huge priorities.  However, with no current effective solution to manage everything under one umbrella, they’re struggling to do so.  The standard point-of-service model has failed, up until now, to cross over into the Beauty Service industry.

Beauty Service Providers have no way to interact with their staff and clients over a holistic platform, and are struggling operationally as a result.  Marketing-centric solutions, like Constant Contact, are usually very expensive and fail to integrate with salon and spa management software.  Owners are faced with a tough choice: either use multiple software services to manage my business, use just one that’s not full-service, or do everything by hand.  And nobody has time for that.

And we don't want to discriminate.  Beauty Service Providers are far from the only industry affected by inadequate operational management.  From hotels to clothing stores, consumer services of all types are receiving negative feedback from their on-the-move customers looking to get things done quickly.

Meet Virtual iTouch: the new business management platform dedicated to connecting beauty service providers, their employees and their customers — all in one connected, integrated platform.

Imagine a network of 1,000,000 beauty service providers employing 5,000,000 employees servicing 50,000,000 clients — all on the same virtual network, all leveraging the same infrastructure and apps to facilitate business interactions and engagement - underpinned by a state of the art marketing and advertising engine.

That’s Virtual iTouch.

Virtual iTouch is one of the first enterprise business solutions to run natively for iOS.

The Virtual iTouch platform provides beauty service providers with a cloud-based infrastructure to communicate with staff, clients, and vendors in a way that fully manages their businesses.

To prove our worth, we’re targeting beauty service providers to start. But the potential applications of the Virtual iTouch platform extend far beyond the Beauty Service industry, into every service-based industry you can name.

Over Beauty Service Providers are already utilizing the Virtual iTouch solution to connect providers, employees and their guests like never before. Who's next?

Not Just For Salon and Spas

Beauty Business Services - All Supported

Here’s how we help…

Just on time, Virtual iTouch is here to simplify the complexity and costliness that beauty service providers - and other consumer service businesses - are facing. 

In this amazing age of technology, why waste valuable labor costs?  Instead of having an employee spend countless hours doing mundane “back of the office” duties, Virtual iTouch has moved them to the cloud to allow for simplified processes and shared services.

Virtual iTouch is a 100% fully native iOS solution. Whether you're a business owner, an employee or a customer, with Virtual iTouch, connecting with your business is as simple as the swipe of an iPhone or iPad screen. 

Breathe easy, save money, and get back to pampering those customers.

We’re a point-of-service solution in essence, but so much more in reality.  In our salon and spa vertical, for example, all new clients get a free 30-day trial for the following management solutions:

    

Virtual iTouch Salon and Spa Management iPad App

Mobile Employee App (Android, iOS)

Mobile Client App (Android, iOS)

Self-service Kiosk App (iOS)

Digital Google TV Advertising App (Android)

The components embedded within these services are seemingly endless.  Here are a handful of the most impressive, many of which are supported by patents:


It’s cloud-based and ready to roll socially.  The app has direct integration to Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram – and a marketing engine that pushes out socially different opportunities based off data that’s relevant to specific clients.


Owners get full control over their business – access to full analytics, staff scheduling, payroll, and much more.  It’s also equipped with a fully mobile payment solution that requires no storage, no printer, and no credit card machine.


Google and Apple ads already integrated, but we also stream our own ads.  Using data acquired from the CRM features, clients can tailor ads to specific customers in a variety of manners (Google TV is one).


We provide an integrated campaign management component that allows businesses to create, offer and discount campaigns for their customers. 


The app supports both walk-ins and scheduled activity.  Customers can access videos of their favorite stylists and make appointments with them, or add themselves to a walk-in queue.

It’s been a long road, but Virtual iTouch has now arrived.  Though we have a ways to go to live out our full vision, we’ve made some serious strides so far:

We’re available for download.  Our fully functional solution has been on the Apple App Store for over a year now, making us one of the first enterprise business solutions to run natively on Apple.  

And, customers are taking advantage.  In just six short months(with minimal marketing),  We currently have over 300 beauty service providers leveraging our professional edition and over 3000  clients using our mobile client, and the numbers are growing exponentially. 

Even outsiders are taking interest.  We’ve also had approximately 2000 downloads outside of our beauty industry network - these are just enthusiastic users who have gotten excited about our vision.

All-star partners.  We’ve formed a partnership with Apple for payment solutions, and with Google for access to their Google TV feature. We’ve also teamed up with Merchant Warehouse, a $200M merchant processing company, and with POSportal, a global hardware procurement company that allows our clients to both purchase and lease hardware to run our software. 

Power of intellectual property.  We have a total of 3 patents pending on our software.

Going forward, we’ll look to improve upon the software’s functionality even more and move our model into new industries.  Want more information?  Don’t forget to request access to the business plan portion of our Fundable profile!
