Tune in to hear Claire (@clairemonroehairco) tell you why social media is not as important as email in growing and managing your business!⁠

⁠

Key Takeaways

Claire has worked in a suite, a small town, a salon, and a big city!
Right before COVID, Claire became independent, renting at a studio, and then COVID-19 caused her to go to a suite!
Suite owners have to do cleaning, hair, bookings, marketing, etc...it can be very overwhelming!
Using email enabled Claire to manage her clientele and stay connected, more so than Instagram.
Instagram is not going to get you the engagement that emails will.
Suite vs. salon stylists should consider reducing their administrative work by focusing less on social media and more on connecting with customers.
Create an email system to stay connected. Start with a welcome email with location, directions, getting to know you, and other things to know.
Make sure your pricing is correct; it will likely differ from a salon.
Schedule a day to handle your business, laundry, marketing, and admin time per week...you are a business owner now; you have to work on your business and not just in your business.
The extra day gives you wiggle room to handle clients if you cancel on clients at the last minute.
Take time for yourself, enjoy your life, and feel confident in working with systems in place to help you manage your business; email is a must-have!

🔅 Stop undercharging your clients! You are losing lots of money! 65% of hairdressers in the UK are self-employed, hence the rise of salon suites!
