A barber who recently moved to a new state is struggling to build a clientele and income, as their current marketing efforts (Instagram reels and business cards) are not generating enough leads in an area with predominantly straight hair clientele.

Existing marketing methods like social media posts and physical cards are not effectively reaching or converting the local clientele, especially since the barber's skill set may not align with the demographic's hair type.
