## Do barbers in Ireland need a website?

In 2026, yes. Instagram is great for brand-building but bad for booking conversion — and Google can't read it. A website with online booking turns Google searches into appointments. It's the missing piece for most Irish barbers.

## Should I use Booksy, Square or a custom booking system?

If you already use Booksy or Square successfully, we embed their booking widget. If you're starting fresh and want zero per-booking fees, we build a custom system on Stripe — slightly more upfront, much cheaper over three years.

## Can I sell gift cards through my barber website?

Yes. Stripe-powered digital gift cards are part of the Growth tier. Christmas and Father's Day typically generate €3,000–€8,000 of extra revenue for a single-chair shop.

## How do I rank my barber shop on Google?

Google Business Profile + LocalBusiness/HairSalon schema + consistent NAP + recent reviews. We set up the first three; you action review requests. Most barbers hit Map Pack for their town within 6–10 weeks.

## How long does a barber website take to build?

3–4 weeks. We need your service list, pricing, photos and Instagram handle. Everything else is on us.

## FAQ

### How much does an AI integration project cost in Ireland?

Digital Bridge prices AI work in bands: an AI feasibility assessment from €5,000 (grant-eligible), a baseline production build from €15,000, multi-system agent workflows at €25,000–€60,000, and enterprise programmes from €40,000 to €100,000+. Small-business website builds start at €499. Every engagement is fixed-price against a signed scope.

### How long does a production AI build take?

A feasibility assessment runs three to five weeks. A baseline production build typically runs eight to twelve weeks from signed scope to go-live, including a seven-day shadow-mode pilot before the system takes live traffic. Multi-system programmes are sequenced into phases so value lands before the full programme completes.

### Can Irish grant funding cover this work?

Often, yes. Enterprise Ireland's Digital Discovery Grant funds up to 80% of an eligible feasibility assessment, and Digital Process Innovation funds up to 50% of eligible implementation costs. Local Enterprise Office schemes cover smaller digital projects. Eligibility is decided by the funder, never by us.

### Who owns the code and the prompts?

You do. Every engagement transfers full source-code and prompt ownership on final payment. Systems run on EU-hosted infrastructure with provider training disabled and a signed data processing agreement. There is no vendor lock-in and no proprietary runtime you have to keep paying us for.
