Technology can be scary for us to wrap our heads around - it’s always changing, there are a million updates, and it’s just not worth the stress!  But what if I told you that technology, more specifically AI, can actually save us a heck of a lot of time…  As Salon Owners, we often think we’re ‘not a computer guy’ we just want to help people look and feel their best and we do that with our hands (and our scissors and brushes and all the other tools we use).

Everyone’s talking about Employee Experience - but what does it actually mean? Not too long ago, employee experience was a little-known concept - but post-pandemic, it has blown up as companies are discovering the untapped value and potential of exceptional employee experience design.

And the reason it's so important is that a great employee experience can improve recruitment, retention, engagement, and even customer service in your Salon. So, today on The Salon Owners Collective Podcast, Larissa is joined by expert HR consulting company Human Kind - who reveals the 7 principles of Employee Experience and how an exceptional employee experience design can bring value to your Salon. &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the true meaning of an employee experience and how it can bring value to your business Learn the 7 principles necessary to design a great employee experience in your Salon Get started with the 4 steps to designing an employee experience for your Salon. &nbsp; 12 Steps to a Stress-Free Christmas We know how busy the lead-up to Christmas is for Salon Owners - ordering stock, booking clients, and creating a great employee experience, which is why we’ve put together 12 steps to a stress-free Christmas!

What does culture look like in your Salon?If a client walked into your Salon today - what would they notice about your team?&nbsp;And you as their leader?&nbsp;Because trust me - they are noticing.&nbsp;They’re noticing the attitudes, behaviours and habits exhibited by your team - and it’s painting a picture of your culture.&nbsp;Why is this important?&nbsp;- because the culture in your salon is reflected in the experience you give your clients.&nbsp;So how do you make sure that the experience you’re providing and the culture you’re demonstrating reflects your values and purpose as a business?&nbsp;Well, today on the Podcast Million Dollar Salon owner and Salon Mastery Coach Sophie Anquetil shares her story - all about how she cultivated a culture in her Salon that was in line with her ultimate business vision and the experience she wanted to create for her clients - and her staff - by leading from the back.&nbsp;Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:Discover the number one thing you need to know in order to cultivate a great culture in your Salon&nbsp;Learn the 3 Secrets to Building a Confident, Self-sufficient team who don't need you.&nbsp;Find out how to attract the right the right people to who will leave and breathe your Salon culture.

One thing I’ve noticed working with Salon Owners is that a lot of them will tell me that they don’t have a mission or vision for their business.&nbsp;But it’s not that they don’t have a mission and a vision - of course they do. Because if you have a business then of course you have a why.&nbsp;&nbsp;And your why is essentially your mission and vision!&nbsp;Why you’re here, doing this thing.&nbsp;So when Salon Owners tell me that they don’t have a mission or a vision what they really mean is they don’t have a DEFINED mission and vision that they can communicate to their team.&nbsp;It’s so important to have this because your mission and vision not only create unity within your team…but also give your team members a glimpse into the future.&nbsp;And like I always say - team members leave when they can’t see a future with you.&nbsp;But how do you get your team to connect with YOUR vision? How do you make YOUR vision relevant to them?&nbsp;In this episode of The Salon Owners Collective Podcast I reveal the fundamentals of how to define and communicate your mission and vision and how to use team workshops to involve your team in setting the values that will be critical to living that mission and realising that vision.&nbsp;Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:Learn how to define your mission and vision and communicate them with your team.&nbsp;Identify your salon values and what they look like using 3 real-life scenarios&nbsp;Discover a workshop structure that will get your team involved, engaged and invested in your salon mission and vision.&nbsp;Let's chat…I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

What does it really mean to be a Salon CEO? This is a question that I personally spent the best part of 20 years working my way through when I owned my own Salon.&nbsp;And ultimately I landed on this: being a Salon CEO means taking control of both your business so that it facilitates your life and the life you’re working towards.

You want a great team culture in your Salon, right? One where everyone gets along, plays their part and achieves great things, together.&nbsp;But what exactly is team culture?Often when I ask Salon Owners this very question, they struggle to give me an answer. And I get it, culture can be an elusive topic - it’s fluffy and abstract - we know it exists but we can’t actually see it.&nbsp;And if we don’t know what team culture is - what it looks like how it manifests within our salon then how do we know if our team culture is bad?

Too many Salon Owners I know aren’t paying themselves. Yeah. You read that right.&nbsp;Some of them have even convinced themselves that they’re not “in it” for the money - they’re in for the love of the craft - but you and I both know you can’t run a business like that, right?The word PROFIT has a bit of a bad rep these days - often associated with want and greed but you need profit to run a successful business - it's not negotiable.&nbsp;Salon owners who aren’t prioritising profit are inevitably condemning themselves to live week to week - paying themselves with the leftovers...

Salon Owners have many tasks &amp; responsibilities that rely on them to ensure their Salon runs smoothly.  Between hiring and managing their team, putting out fires and team dramas, paying bills, managing stock, knowing their clientele, and sales &amp; marketing…the list goes on and on.    They are masters of juggling a million different hats on a good day!  But I believe that the ONE purpose which sits at the root of everything Salon Owners do is spending their time focusing on Income Generating Activities - or what I call IGAs.    Every time a client walks into the Salon, there is an additional income-generating opportunity and all it takes is a small investment of the owner's time.  Keep listening to discover the 3 most important IGAs that will not only drive new clients to the Salon but will ensure the current clients continue to spend more on each visit.  Think of it as your lottery ticket to running a successful, growing Salon.

When you own a business, it often feels like nobody else understands what it's like. Our friends might wonder why we don't just get a ‘normal’ job and avoid all the hard work and staff drama.  Dealing with inconsistent employees, staff dramas, client complaints, and misbehaving teams can make us question ourselves, right? We might think it's hard to find good people, and we can easily start blaming ourselves… what are we doing wrong? However, it's a mistake to believe that having a great team and running a successful business will mean that dramas and horror stories don't happen.  They're simply part of the territory when employing humans. But what you can do, is put simple strategies into place that will help you deal with team dramas when they come up, and minimise them going forward.  So… I wanted to change things up a bit for this episode and share some of my own Salon drama stories.  As someone who regularly coaches Salon Owners like you, offering support, advice, and proven strategies to improve their businesses, I've walked a mile in your shoes.  And let me tell you, those shoes have some stories—some hilarious, some horrifying. Horror stories like these can happen to everyone at some point… But what I will share are my solutions to minimise the horror stories!

How can you easily fill the gaps that your team have…? In this episode, we are going to dive into two types of ‘client offers’ that are proven to fill up White-Space &amp; book out your team during quiet times OR dips in appointments to continue to grow sales, without discounting Client promotional offers and packages are the answer.

Want to know the reason you spend ALL of your waking hours getting caught up in the day-to-day running of your business?  The REAL reason you’re working 60+ hour weeks but never ticking anything off your to-do list?

As the Salon Owner, you often feel like if you aren’t ‘there’ in Salon 24/7 running things, then you’re going to lose the connection with your clients, and your team won’t do it as well as you can… And so you allow your business to be centred around you, to ‘need’ you 24/7.  Stop right there!

What are the exact steps you would take to achieve your goal? When it comes to achieving your goals as Salon CEO, you probably find yourself falling into one of these two categories: You have ideas, but can’t seem to string the pieces together in a logical manner OR You don’t have a clue as to where to start with achieving your goal.

Is your Salon on your mind 24/7? You find it hard to switch off - you’re constantly stressing over everything that needs to be fixed and trying to do it all at once. But what is worse is that you think you are fixing things, but the problem isn’t going away and as a result, you are burned out.  You know it’s possible to not feel like this because you see other Salon Owners living the life you have always wanted, but the reality is that you don’t know exactly what you need to be working on to get you there! So instead, you need something that is going to help you identify what phase of business you’re in, and what to work on to get the results you want.  This is the second part of my Masterclass Series where you will identify what stage &amp; phase your Salon is in, this is important because it will highlight what you should be working on, given what stage of business you’re in… and tell you what you can say no to… Let’s jump in… Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Identify what stage &amp; phase you’re at in order to know what you should be working on Narrow focus to work on the right things at right time, not all at once!

For many Salon Owners, running a Salon is like having a baby that constantly needs feeding and nurturing.  But how great would it be to have a solution to keeping your business alive, without it being centred all around YOU?! Without YOU being the one that has to ‘nurse it’, ‘watch it’ and ‘be there’ 24/7. Something that you knew could (sustainably) allow you to go from working 40 hours a week on the floor to actually spending more time with your family. Like, genuinely have time for the things you love outside your business..  But what happens is that Salon Owners, especially women, feel this guilt and pull towards ‘doing it all’ and ‘juggling it all.’ It’s a vicious cycle, that I know all too well.  So, instead, I want to show you how you can continue to grow your business, WITHOUT being the one that is constantly doing it all…because it’s not sustainable.  I want to introduce you to Carrie Flynn, owner of Virtual Simplicity, a marketing growth company, with a focus on not just marketing strategies, but actually scaling your business without the overwhelm.  Because let’s be honest, you don’t need to add anything more to your plate!

In every Salon, even your best-performing team member can go rogue from time to time.  As a result, keeping your team motivated and their sales up feels like a full-time job! You wish that: Every team member was hitting their target consistently  Every team member was motivated by the KPIs you set Every team member cared about the salon’s growth as much as you do But sometimes, when they’re hanging out in the back room, chatting, or on their phone, it feels like a losing battle… In my experience, building a high-performing salon team is like building a high-performing sports team… they need regular coaching in order to consistently perform.  But the problem is, you don’t know where to start with this! Right?! Where will you find the time, and how will you know what to say, or do, in order to coach them to perform at a consistently high level? In this episode, I want to share with you the Salon Mastery 3-step strategy for successfully coaching your team to reach their sales targets.  This gold-nugget strategy is a snippet from our Salon Mastery Coaching Call, with myself, and my amazing success coach,  Amy.  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the real reason your team aren’t hitting their targets every week How to ensure your team stays motivated to reach their KPIs and goals Build a winning team culture inside of your Salon that your team want to be apart of Salon Business Plan  CLICK HERE to grab a copy of our Business Plan &amp; Masterclass Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

When you have a team member resign, you’re often left blindsided, wondering how you didn’t see it coming… You may feel totally overwhelmed, asking yourself a million questions and trying to figure out what went wrong. Was it your fault? You have this dream of building an amazing team of ROCKSTARS, who believe in your Salon’s Mission and are on the journey with you. …all working towards the same collective goal. And this prospect is exciting because, for the longest time, you dreamt of being the one calling the shots! So finally, it’s your turn to lead and inspire a team of humans to reach their dreams too!  But this isn’t always as easy as it seems, right? Because then someone leaves, and you’re left having to pick up the pieces and go through the hiring process again, which can be totally exhausting and frustrating… You just wish you had a system in place so that when someone does resign, you’re not left scrambling to fill the hole in your business, and potentially hiring the wrong fit. In this episode, I want to share with you the 5 warning signs that your team members are going to leave. As well as how to prepare yourself and your business for the inevitable, so you can hire the right people to work for you, and avoid having a ball and chain around your ankles to your business.  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Learn the 5 warning signs that your team members are going to leave The secret to knowing when is the right time to hire a new team member Discover how to prepare yourself for the inevitable of your team leaving through proven leadership strategies &amp; frameworks.  4-Simple Steps to Create a Salon Business Plan  CLICK HERE to save your spot for the masterclass event Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

Every Salon Owner dreams of having an amazing team culture: A culture where everyone gets along Where people have clear sales targets And are motivated to smash them So the culture is positive… even without you there. But all it takes is one bad apple on your team to ruin the whole apple cart… right?! You know the one. They’re sitting out the back of the Salon, twiddling their thumbs when there are clients that need serving, they’re not hitting their targets, and it feels like an uphill battle trying to get them to do anything….  It’s causing the salon environment to flip upside down, things can become toxic, and not only are they not performing, but this starts to affect the rest of the team’s performance. Like, all we want is a team that is smashing targets, for clients to receive a 10/10 service, and to feel confident that everyone is motivated and happy. Having a culture like this reminds you why you love this industry so much. I call this building culture of #winning in your salon. But actually, what’s important to remember is that a winning culture is not something that just ‘happens’ one day, and then ‘that’s it’… …instead, your Salon's culture is forever changing and evolving. So the focus needs to be on keeping it positive, 95% of the time, each and every day. To do this, you need systems in your business that are ‘human’ proof so that your team is set up for success, regardless of the individuals within it. So what are those systems? How can you make this happen in YOUR salon? In this episode, you will find out exactly how to build a positive, motivating Salon culture that works even when you aren’t in Salon 24/7. Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Define three different types of employee and discover how to best communicate with them in terms of their skills, culture &amp; sales.  How to recognise the right employee at the interview stage of your hiring process How to say “no” to those employees that aren’t the right fit.  4-Simple Steps to Create a Salon Business Plan  CLICK HERE to save your spot for the masterclass event Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

Having a Salon team is like a catch-22. Your team isn’t hitting their targets…but they want to earn more and work less.  Your team is amazing 90% of the time, but 10% of the time shite completely hits the fan and it feels like no one is getting along!  Your team says they want to move up the ladder…but they leave before they finish their apprenticeship! Does this make them the enemy?  Many salon owners fall victim to this from time to time, believing it’s all the team’s fault. It’s easier to blame THEM for not performing ‘well enough, but it’s actually OUR responsibility as the Salon CEO to lead them towards success.  It’s your job to lead your team and empower them to meet targets and hit career goals. I believe this starts with good communication and building a strong relationship with your team.  In this episode, I share a sneak peek into my 2-Day Salon Mastery Intensive Workshop, and reveal… The secret to team communication that you have been missing!  The real reason this new generation doesn’t understand you  How to become a confident leader… with the tools to lead a new generation in 2023 and beyond Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: The secret to team communication that you have been missing!  The real reason this new generation doesn’t understand you  How to become a confident leader… with the tools to lead a new generation in 2023 and beyond 4-Simple Steps to Create a Salon Business Plan  CLICK HERE to save your spot for the masterclass event Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

Answer this.  Is your Salon profitable? Too often, I hear Salon Owners answer this question with a ‘no’.   Either you are paying your team first and not paying yourself enough,  or WORSE not paying yourself at all…OR you are paying yourself a good wage, but your business isn’t profitable.  And this becomes stressful, right? Because you’re living week to week, always worrying about the business bringing in money. But this isn’t sustainable! If you simply wait for the profit to come, it never will.= So this is a mistake I don’t want you to make.  Because if you don’t prioritise your profit, there will never be enough left over, so you’ll always be chasing money… You need to make intentional decisions that will make your business profitable…you have to put yourself and your business first.  That’s why I’m going to share with you 3 game-changing steps to manage your Salon’s profit.

That awkward conversation…  You know the one, where the ONE team member, who hasn’t been hitting their sales targets, comes up to you and asks for a pay rise.  It can feel like a child throwing a tantrum in a candy store, you’ll give them the sweets just to keep them quiet because let’s face it, it’s easier and less “work” in the short term. But this actually becomes a vicious cycle that I don’t want you getting into. Instead, what you need is a system that recognizes success, celebrates and rewards those that are smashing their targets, and gives you confidence about when to give a payrise and when not to. This is a system that we, at Salon Owners Collective, call “Do I Get a Payrise” (DIGAPR), a step-by-step progression plan for all of your employees that is exclusive to the Salon Mastery Coaching Program… where your team can see a clear career roadmap, and the next steps they need to take in order to earn a pay rise(without bugging you about it when they don’t actually deserve it!).  I can’t wait to share it with you, let’s get into it!  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Get an insight into my Salon Mastery Coaching Program Learn our Do I Get a Payrise step-by-step progression plan How to avoid team tantrums &amp; awkward conversations… 9 Part Plan CLICK HERE to get access to the 9-part plan to Salon success Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

You don’t often get a second chance to make a first impression, especially in the Salon Industry.  In today’s online-dominated world, 95% of people who visit your website are new clients.  Yes, that’s right! NEW clients. Potential new clients will stalk your Salon’s website and socials, forming an expectation of what they will get if they come to your Salon…will you live up to their expectations? So how do you turn all that online activity into actual paying clients that LOVE what they see online and offline, and come back again and again?  I want to introduce you to the CEO of MYA &amp; former Salon Owner, Kati Whitledge.  Kati is an expert with social media &amp; marketing Salons online.

The path to Salon success is not a straight one.  Take it from me. Business is not a one-size fits all approach. Nobody gives you a handbook on how to grow your Salon overnight.  This means Salon Owners often end up winging it on their journey to success…throwing sh*t at the wall and seeing what sticks. But when it comes to having confidence that the things you spend time on will work…and not wasting time implementing things that don’t move the business forward… WINGING it can be a mistake. Who’s guilty?  I know I have been from time to time! But if you keep doing this, it could be detrimental to your success… Because you’ve reached a point where you’re desperately trying to grow, to increase sales, attract new team members, increase new client rates, and grow profit…  But you’ve flatlined… or worse… maybe even dipped down. You’re working longer hours than ever but not seeing any results. So instead, what you need is a proven plan to guide you in the right direction. To plan what your next move will be so you can grow your business successfully… without all the road bumps.  So, in this episode, I share a sneak peek into my 9-part proven plan that every Salon Owner needs to nail in order to run a high-functioning, profitable and successful salon. There is so much to share so let’s press play and uncover strategies you didn’t know you were missing….

It’s time to ditch the old way of how you lead your Salon team to succeed. Ok, let me explain… Too often, I see Salon Owners who constantly feel like they have to chase their team members up. Ugh, it’s exhausting, right?! You try to flag your team members down during a busy day in the Salon, doing what I call ‘hallway management’, simply because there’s no other time to check in!  I get it…leading and managing a growing team is sometimes tough.  Constantly trying to keep up with them, juggling team drama, bad behavior, underperformance, or worst of all… resignations.  But what if I told you that the key to finally feeling in control and ahead of your team, is to shift your mindset… not chase them in the hallway. In this episode, I will share with you the proven strategies behind building a successful team of superstars (ones that actually want to work for you and LOVE what they do).  This is actually an inside sneak-peak into a recent Salon Mastery Coaching Call I had with a few owners on exactly this topic.  Not only does this give you a taste of what it's like inside of Salon Mastery but we solve a few teams challenges when it comes to keeping your team motivated, so your business can continue to grow into a million-dollar Salon.  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Get an inside sneak-peak into a recent Salon Mastery Coaching Call Go from hallway management of your Salon to being in front of them Proven step-by-step strategies to get your team to love what they do (and stick around) 9 Part Business Assessment CLICK HERE to get your hands on it (I'll dm you a copy) Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.

There is a fine line between having great technical skills and being a great business owner. You start out as a stylist or therapist, you’re passionate about what you do, and you’re good at what you do. It’s enough to make you decide to open your own Salon.  But technical skill can only take you so far.  Because when you’re so good at serving clients, it often means clients only want you, which leaves you overbooked and overwhelmed. You can’t do it all by yourself - so you grow a team. But growth brings so many lessons as a Salon CEO…and there is only so much you can prepare yourself for. Business is a whole new game.  This is why I believe in the power of learning from someone who is 2 steps ahead of you, who has been there, done that.  I want to introduce you to Mary Harcourt. Mary has decades of experience in the industry and knows what it takes to run a thriving and growing business. Mary is a former hairstylist, turned lash guru, who is now running her own manufacturing company for lighting systems for spa and lash Salons.  Mary and I sit down in this episode to share with you the strategies around navigating the ever-changing landscape of going from an operator (hairstylist or therapist) to owning your own business and becoming a true salon CEO. We discuss team, marketing, CEO burnout, and everything else in between! &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the secret to becoming a successful Salon CEO  Learn my strategy for transitioning from a hairstylist to owning a business How to navigate the world of business ownership  Inner Salon CEO Snapshot: CLICK HERE to get your hands on it Let's chat… I'd like to chat with you a bit more about your business and how I may be able to help you.
