## Direct links
- Book directly: https://getsquire.com/booking/book/mamas-boy-montreal (through squire acting for the business)
- Menu: https://mamasboybarbershop.ca/brewlab-coffee
- Phone: +14383806644

## What to fix first
- Prices: 17 prices on the site, the middle one CA$30.00

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2023.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Montreal, 66% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **17 prices on the landing page, the middle one CA$30.00.** In Montreal, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is CA$58.00.

- **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). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business
