Inside One83 Mane’s Success with Meevo’s Salon Business Management Software

At One83 Mane Studio & Luxury Salon in New Jersey, excellence isn’t just a goal—it’s a daily practice. But running a high-performing salon takes more than talent and ambition. It takes the right salon business management software to stay efficient, connected, and growth-focused.

That’s where Meevo comes in.

“We’ve been with Meevo since the beginning,” says Owner Kathie Maconi. “It wasn’t too complicated. As hairdressers, we’re not focused on tech—we’re focused on hair. So it needs to be user-friendly. And Meevo is.”

Built For Beauty Pros, Not Tech Bros

From the moment you walk in the door, it’s clear One83 Mane runs a tight, guest-focused operation. For Kathie and her team, that means using salon business management software that doesn’t get in the way—it simply works.

“The biggest surprise about Meevo is how easy it is to maneuver. It’s pretty, it’s colorful, and it’s user-friendly,” she adds.

That ease of use isn’t just for owners—it extends to the front desk, stylists, and even new hires.
“It’s very easy to train employees,” Manager & Stylist Wendy explains.
“There are role-specific training videos, whether someone’s at the front desk, a manager, or a service provider. It’s customizable to what they need.”

Goals Aren’t Just Set. They’re Tracked So They Can Be Met.

One83 Mane doesn’t leave growth to chance. The team thrives on setting and surpassing performance goals, and Meevo’s reporting tools help them stay accountable.

“Every day is a new goal. Every year is a new goal,” Kathie says. “Meevo has great reports for checking to see if we’ve made our goals.”

With features like easy-to-read reporting and Meevo’s Goals Dashboard, the entire team can visualize performance in real time.

“You can customize goals per employee,” Wendy adds. “Service, retail, rebooking, utilization—whatever you want to drive, it’s right there.”

And for a results-driven team, visibility is everything.

“I share the reports with everyone,” Wendy says. “They can see how they’re doing compared to the week prior—or compared to each other. That alone has driven everybody financially to upsell and increase that number.”

Smart Centers and Goal Dashboards That Keep the Whole Team Aligned

The Smart Center is one of the most frequently used features of Meevo’s salon business management software at One83 Mane. Stylists check performance tiles on their phones, the front desk monitors appointment flow, and management can instantly view staff productivity, cancellations, and rebooking metrics, all without digging through menus.

“It tells us everything we need to know to keep our day going,” Kathie says. “The staff appreciates being able to see everything on their phones—appointments, totals, goals—right at their fingertips.”

“The tiles are great, especially at the end of the day,” Wendy adds. “It’s really easy to see where we were in our totals for the week.”

Online Booking That Clients Love

In a digital-first world, client expectations have shifted. And One83 Mane has kept pace.

“People just want to book online. They don’t want to call anymore,” Kathie says. “Online Booking is a very big success here.”

Guests aren’t just using it—they’re raving about it.

“Our clients really enjoy Meevo,” Wendy adds. “Especially the online booking.”

Payments That Never Slow Down

At checkout, One83 Mane uses MeevoPay, Meevo’s built-in payment processing solution, to provide clients with a seamless, modern experience and the staff with peace of mind.

“MeevoPay makes our job at the register a lot easier,” Kathie says. “The processing is very quick, and the customers love it.”

What really impresses the team is the reliability.

“With our previous processor, if the internet went down, we were down,” Kathie explains. “But with MeevoPay, we can just use our phones. It keeps us running.”

And clients love the speed. “They especially love Apple Pay and Tap to Pay,” Wendy says. “The terminals are fast, modern, and sleek. And they take up less counter space, which is great.”

Marketing, Reviews & Communication, All in One Place

Meevo’s salon business management software gives One83 Mane the tools to stay engaged with clients while saving hours on admin.

“We use a lot of different integrations, specifically with reviews,” Wendy says. “Meevo’s AI will auto-generate a response to Google reviews, and you can even customize the greeting, the message—even the closing sentence.”

The team also relies on two-way texting through Meevo’s Textel integration to streamline communication.
“Clients know they can text us, and we can text them,” she says. “We’ve really expanded how much we use that.”

And when it comes to promotions, packages have become a strategic driver.

“It’s really easy to create packages,” Wendy explains. “Whether it’s services, retail, or both, Meevo walks you through it. We offered spring packages for Mother’s Day, and our clients were able to purchase them online and gift them. It helped increase visits and rebookings.”

A Partner That Grows With You

For a high-performing salon like One83 Mane, Meevo is more than just software; it’s a business partner built for the long haul.

“Meevo is the easy choice to make your business grow,” Kathie says. “It’s your best option to run your business.”

Wendy agrees: “I think Meevo is an excellent asset for daily use. It helps owners hit their goals. It helps employees grow. And it’s exciting to see new features coming out all the time.”
