Case study · Private barbershop

A Montréal barbershop with the codes of a private club.

  • Montréal
  • Webflow website and brand identity
  • 2024 to today

Selling a membership

No à la carte appointments: a monthly membership, in three tiers, that orchestrates care, comfort and access. You get in by application or on invitation. The space itself is a finalist at the SBID Awards 2026.

Not haircuts. An unusual offer has to be understood before it is bought. But a private club that explains itself too much becomes a salon like any other.

Turn the standing of the space into membership applications. So the website had to do both at once: convey the exclusivity of the space, and naturally lead the right visitor to apply.

A 100% custom menu

Not a template menu: a navigation designed and animated for the club, from the opening to the last link. Every JSW website has a signature detail; for Gallantier, it’s this one.

The website, piece by piece

  1. Brand identity and design

    • Creation of the club’s brand identity and toolkit
    • The space’s universe translated on screen: black, cream and gold
    • Premium animations, with the club’s photo and video staged
  2. Webflow development, ongoing

    • Webflow, and custom code where the tool falls short
    • Complete mobile version, nothing sacrificed
    • A website that has evolved continuously since 2024
  3. Marketing strategy and journey

    • Private club positioning: membership by application or invitation
    • User flow and workflow: application, private visit, every request counted
    • Careful SEO: Google traffic tripled in a year

The results

What the website brings in for Gallantier

×3

Three times more people find the club on Google, in one year.

1st half2nd half

From the first to the second half, Google traffic tripled, with no advertising budget at all. Every visit won is a possible application, without paying to attract it.

  • 16.1%

    One person in six clicks when Gallantier appears on Google. The result makes people want to come in before the first visit.

  • ≈ $3,000

    As many Google ads as Gallantier doesn’t have to pay for. That’s what this traffic would cost, at the real auction prices in Montréal.

“Just Simple Web has done it again! Thanks to effective communication and a professionally built website, Simon delivered a quality product that reflects our business model and our vision. Thank you for going above and beyond, once again!”
