# Brush: Agent-Direct Score B (70%)

Site: https://www.brushsalon.ca/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/brushsalon.ca
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Brush is mostly ready for agents.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.phorest.com/salon/brushsalon1 (through phorest acting for the business)
- Order directly: https://www.brushsalon.ca/pages/shipping-return (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +1 604 559 1737

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.
