The biggest mistake you can make as a Salon Owner is to assume your team knows how to sell.  After all, they are trained to do hair or beauty, right? Not how to be a salesperson and actually they often don’t want to be a salesperson. So even when you have clients coming through the door, and you have a full team of stylists, you aren’t seeing the growth you had hoped for… and as the Salon Owner,  you end up with the most sales, consistently rebooking clients, and keeping the business afloat. But if all the pressure to make the most relies on you, the owner, what happens when you want to get free from clients for one moment to work ON their business?! You end up losing more than it’s worth and you’re stuck on the floor 60 hours a week, busier than ever.  This doesn’t have to be the case. You can move off the floor, work less hours with clients, and STILL see growth in your business!  I want to introduce you to my amazing Salon Mastery & Momentum Success Coach, Amy Osmer. Amy has years of experience working in Salons, managing large teams, and working behind the scenes of large format salon groups within the Hair & Beauty industry.  Amy is an expert in helping owners increase their Salon’s Sales and leading their teams to succeed so that they can stop the “60-hours-on-the-floor”, weekly grind. In this episode, Amy and I are going to share our top 3 strategies for getting your team to make more, without you having to work more and add more to your plate…in fact, after this episode, you will be able to see how to work LESS in your business, and still see your sales skyrocket! After implementing these strategies, our Salon Mastery & Momentum Program Owners have grown their weekly sales, while reducing their weekly hours on the floor….we just celebrated end-of-year awards with some having 66% growth in 12 months.   Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover how to get your team to make more without adding more to your plate Learn the secret to increasing sales and stopping the weekly 60 hours on the floor grind Get a sneak peek at our Salon Mastery-approved sales strategies  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.

I often compare Salon ownership to an ongoing game of Tetris.  You’re always trying to move the pieces around: your team, your sales, and your clients, to make them fit perfectly together and win the game of mastering a successful business.  The challenge of this is that the pieces are always moving and are unpredictable (humans!!) and while the more experience you have in running a Salon, the more ‘in control’ things feel, there is still lots of uncertainty, you often wonder what will happen next…what move will you have to make….  It’s not often I get to introduce a guest on my podcast for the 5th time…but Stevie is an exception! I am so excited to have Stevie English back on my podcast to share his secret to building an incredible team culture, a growing clientele, and most importantly the secret to looking after YOU as the CEO so you feel in control of your business even when shit hits the fan!  Stevie with 15 years of industry knowledge, chats on how to keep your team happy and your business thriving without having to sacrifice your life & freedom.

Want to know how 18 Salon Owners grew their income by $100k a year? I’ll give you one clue, it ends with ditching the hustle culture! Yes, I know it well.  As a Salon Owner, there’s an immense amount of pressure to ensure the business is profitable and is bringing money in through the door. You want to provide a completely personalized experience for every single client that visits your salon…..

You’re grinding 24/7 to bring money in the door, but you’re not seeing the results… Do you know why? The reason is that…. “doing more” doesn’t actually make you any more successful, or profitable… instead, it can do the exact opposite!  It means you end up burned out, overwhelmed, and stuck inside your business.  So, instead of doing ALL the things, you actually only need to focus on 4 things in order to make more.  That’s right, I said it. There are only 4 things you need to focus on right now, to grow your Salon by $100k a YEAR.   I’m going to share with you what those 4 strategies are, so you can implement them within your Salon and grow your business income by $100k in the next year.  It’s possible, TRUST ME, I currently have 18 members inside my Salon Mastery Coaching Program that have hit the 100k Growth Club since joining the program… all by doing these 4 things.  So if you are interested in hearing about the strategies I teach these Salon Owners inside Salon Mastery, then keep listening….

Do you ever get the feeling that you haven’t quite yet reached your full potential as Salon CEO? Things are ticking along, your Salon is growing, your team is happy, and business is “as expected,” yet you have this fire inside of you to keep going, to keep dreaming big. Everyone has their own unique idea of what success looks like... for many owners, that could be purchasing another Salon, growing a large team, being able to take a holiday and your team thrive without you there… So while everything is going 'fine' in your day-to-day life, there's this gnawing feeling at the back of your mind that you could, would, should be achieving more.  But what stops you from achieving that?

At peak times, your Senior stylists or therapists are booked up weeks in advance, and as a result, you have to turn away clients as you simply can’t fit them in…and that’s money walking out the door!   Hiring another Senior stylist to take the pressure off the rest of your team would be ideal……  but it feels near impossible right now!

What does freedom mean to you? Is it being able to spend time away from your Salon, and with your family? Being able to come and go as you please without feeling guilty? To not have any financial stress about whether the Salon is making ends meet?  For me, freedom is a choice. It’s a choice to be able to create your dream life, to choose when you work, who you work with and what your family time is like. It can also be freedom of your mind, to be able to switch off from your business when you need to.  But the question remains: how do you create freedom when so much of the business relies on you?  In this episode, you’ll discover what freedom truly looks like for you, and I’ll share my secret to creating freedom as a Salon CEO…without feeling like everything will turn to sh*t without you there.

The Hair & Beauty industry is forever evolving.  Between a new generation of stylists and lifestyle changes, social media taking over our lives & clients demanding more from a client experience, Salon Owners are left wondering what’s next. It can feel like you’re a soldier going into battle, putting out fire after fire with your team, Then when you get home from the salon, instead of switching off, you have to spend your limited spare time looking for new team members, creating short, entertaining videos to keep your brand relevant, and brainstorming ways to provide a seamless client experience,  It’s no wonder that Salon Owners end up burned out and overwhelmed! It’s a battlefield out there. How can you navigate your ever-changing team, clientele, and social media landscape?  If there is anyone who knows how to tackle and navigate this generation of stylists and clients, it’s Eric Taylor.

As a Salon Owner, it can be so easy to get sucked into what I call “shiny object syndrome”, especially when you first open your business…press pause on that team retreat for now!  You’re ready to hit the ground running, and do all the things you have always wanted to when stuck behind the chair working for someone else. You feel like a kid in a candy store, right?!! But in my perspective, this can be a big mistake.  Less is always more, especially when you’re first starting out in Salon Ownership. It’s important to build strong foundations in your salon business so that you don’t have to backtrack and backfill once you have grown.  One core ingredient of a successful business that you need to get clear on at the start, is your culture. The thing that makes the wheels go round. I know building a strong team culture can feel tricky for a lot of owners. Like, you worry that if your culture isn't strong enough... your team might not stay around, you might not be able to hire new team members and it will affect the overall feel and reputation of your Salon.  Like, you know that everyone wants to work for someone that has a great reputation!  I know you might be asking, “okay but what does an amazing culture look like?”  So, I want to introduce you to Tara Hainsworth - the owner of the successful Salon, Hainsworth & Company. Tara has nailed the secret recipe to team culture and what successfully grew her team from 2 to 20.  Tara is going to share her strategies around how to build an amazing team culture so that your team won’t leave… and how to be flexible in your business. It’s time to do less, but do it better and establish the core of your business before you can grow… Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: How to build an amazing team culture Learn Tara’s secret for how to get your team to stick around and love working for you Discover the first thing to implement when you open your Salon 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.

Is this you? Your current team doesn’t want to work Saturdays or late nights, and they aren’t hitting their targets, yet come to you asking for a pay rise… OMG are they serious?! And when you try to hire someone new, it’s crickets! It seems like nobody wants to work these days…is this familiar? So to make up for it, you have to pull the weight for your team… you’re putting in all the hours, saying yes to all the clients…you have a large team, and yet, your Salon still isn’t growing… It always feels like 2 steps forward, 3 steps back. You’re going round and round an ongoing loop with your team and your business hitting a plateau, and you feel like this is never going to end.  You find yourself asking, what is all of this for? You’re the highest earner, the one who is left mopping the floors at the end of the day… But this isn’t what you imagined Salon Ownership being, right? No! This isn’t what Salon Ownership should look like… and believe me, I’ve been on that side of running a business, and it’s exhausting and you are left feeling unfulfilled and burned out. I want to share with you one of my favourite team management strategies, which I taught my owners within our Salon Mastery Program during my 2-day Intensive. It’s all about the 3 step secret in how to get your team to want to work Saturdays and late nights!  It’s time for you to ditch this way of working, and move into your role of Salon CEO, and to do this you need a growing team that is bringing in amazing clients and revenue for your Salon.  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover how to get your team to LOVE working late nights and Saturdays Learn my secrets to getting your team to hit their targets How to move off the floor, without everything falling apart.  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.

Is your Salon Manager really helping the business move forward, or are they instead hindering the future success of the Salon? As the Salon Owner, you already have too many tabs open.  You’re thinking about a million different things and you have a to-do list that is never-ending. Your role is to lead your business and ensure that it continues to grow, which is why you need a right-hand man, or what we, in this industry, call a Salon Manager.  When hiring a salon manager, the goal is to find someone to manage the hustle of daily operations in the Salon, and help carry the weight of leading the team, so that you can step away from working IN the business, and instead work more ON the business.  But this isn’t always as picture-perfect as it seems…can you relate? Whilst you’d hoped that hiring a Salon Manager was going to be the answer to all your problems, it’s actually ended up being an even bigger headache… The jobs aren’t getting done, you’re doing more than ever, and you can’t actually trust them to look after the Salon when you aren’t there. So what is going to give? I want to introduce Greta Veint, one of our Salon Mastery Success Coaches here at Salon Owners Collective. After leading 17 Salons as a Salon Manager, (and being a total Rockstar working for me during my Salon days), Greta knows what it takes to harness an effective management role within a successful salon, and build a productive working relationship between the Salon CEO & Manager.  She is the powerhouse behind our Motivating Managers program within Salon Mastery and has all the tips and tricks to help you go from frustration with your management team, to motivate managers to be confident and successful in their role... so that you can step away and the salon can continue to flourish.

What do you want your Salon to be known for?  Why should a client choose your Salon over the one down the road?   These are the questions you need to ask yourself if you want to stand out from the rest and ensure clients choose YOU and always return… After all, we all BASICALLY offer the same thing, right?!   Thinking back to my early Salon days, I remember sometimes feeling like I had to do all the things and serve all the clients to ensure they had nothing short of the best experience.,After all, I had 7 salons within walking distance, so I felt like I needed to take what I could get…those clients were valuable, right! I would spend my days putting out fires, taking on extra clients, and doing the absolute most to ensure everyone in the room was happy.   But then I realised, this isn’t sustainable. It was exhausting, overwhelming, and funnily enough, didn’t bring more clients through the door… Janine Jarman aka the Queen of Perms, is the founder of Curl Cult, a product that has changed the technology and science behind perms.

Have you ever felt like: You’re working yourself to the bone: You’re busier than ever with clients, plus managing an ever-evolving team...  You’re hardly present with your family as work has taken over your brain space… but what makes it worse is you’re not growing.   But still, you end up saying YES all the time:  Like when a team member needs our help with something, we jump at the chance… because we don’t want to let them down Or when a regular client wants to book with you when you’re ‘meant’ to be working ON the business (not in it)... you give in because you feel bad…    Or maybe you’re guilty of having shiny object syndrome…. Are you nodding your head right now? I know I’ve been guilty of this too… But this is a HUGE mistake.    Because in reality, these are often the things that will halt forward momentum in our business.  As a result, you take 2 steps forward, 2 back. Your business is at a constant plateau, and you get super frustrated because you’re BUSY doing ALL the things- so you start to wonder-- ‘why am I not growing?’ You get overwhelmed and burnt out… which leads to halting progress even more.    Agh! It’s a vicious cycle. In this episode, I will take you through my secret formula to increasing sales by working less (for smart salon CEOs).    If you’re overworking 30+ hours on the Salon floor, and want to create what I like to call ‘CEO discipline’, and have the time to move the needle in your business, then keep listening… Plus don’t forget to grab yourself a copy of the “4 Steps to Becoming a Smart Salon CEO”  strategy.

Does self-doubt stop you from increasing your salon’s prices? You know deep down you need to put your prices up, but the thought of asking your clients to spend more just feels so daunting.  &nbsp; What if they push back? What if they leave and never come back because they can’t afford your services? How will you equip the team to handle these objections… when you feel nervous about it yourself? Honestly, if this is you, then know that you aren’t alone. I know this is a huge challenge for so many owners.  &nbsp; But in reality, this holds Salon Owners back from success…and reaching their full potential. Instead of feeling confident about your experience and your Salon’s prices, you instead have this overwhelming urge to compare yourself to other Salons, to discount your services, to apologise before anything has even gone wrong, all due to the fact that you’re worried that if you don’t, that client will go elsewhere.   &nbsp; This is why I want to introduce Ruby Lee, a wealth &amp; expense business coach helping business owners shift their mindset to “I can” &amp; “I will” instead of being a roadblock to their own success.  Ruby will share her strategies for getting comfortable with your numbers and profitability, so you can back yourself in moments when you may be doubting yourself or feeling insecure (because let’s face it, we all have these moments!) and continue to grow your million-dollar Salon. &nbsp; Discover the REAL reason why so many salon owners feel too scared to raise their prices, and how to combat this in your salon, once and for all. Uncover your true worth and potential as a business owner, so that you can feel confident with your decisions, and truly grow your profit to its full potential… &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the real reason why so many Salon Owners don’t raise their prices How to overcome the fear of putting up your prices in your Salon Learn how uncover your true worth &amp; potential as a business owner 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.

You begin to wonder: is this all too good to be true? If you have experienced this, then you are not alone!  Imposter Syndrome affects 70% of humans, including myself! I faced many Imposter Syndrome moments in my career towards owning a million-dollar business and Salon. Sometimes feeling unsure how to overcome this feeling of doubt in my ability to succeed. You may be feeling the same way…  In this episode, I want to introduce the expert in all things self-doubt, confidence, and Imposter Syndrome, Alison Shamir.  Alison has experienced the highs and lows of running a business and has been on a quest to help women all over the world acknowledge what Imposter Syndrome is and provide the secret to overcoming the fear and anxiety that is only natural when success comes your way.  This is something that even today, I am still learning to conquer!  Let’s unpack the 3 beliefs surrounding Imposter Syndrome and everyday tools you can use to overcome imposter syndrome in moments during your career.  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Unpack the 3 beliefs surrounding Imposter Syndrome 2.

It feels like you’re stuck extinguishing little fires all day long! And when you do find the space to work on these things, you feel the “mum guilt” creep up…and planning the next big thing gets replaced with the football final for your child’s team.  It’s always either: “am I a good enough mother?” or “am I a good enough business owner?”, and you’re left wondering if you’ll ever be able to be successful in both.

I’m pretty sure it’s every Salon owner’s worst nightmare… everyone leaving you, and you’re the one left to pick up the pieces. &nbsp; Honestly, even with a team of 30, I still worried about this at times So instead I focused on building a salon team culture that was so good, so irreplaceable, that my stylists would never want to leave. &nbsp; Like, that’s the goal, right?

Do you find yourself saying YES to things that you would rather be saying NO to?  I used to be guilty of this myself. That’s right, I’m a recovering YES-aholic! Like, it’s a fact… As salon owners and creative entrepreneurs (and women in particular), we try to do it all. &nbsp; In fact, we overdo it more than we’d care to admit. Often without even realising, we spend so much of our energy trying to please everyone, saying yes to everything that comes our way, and constantly putting ourselves last to ensure our teams, our partners, and our family are happy.  But what does this leave us with? &nbsp; Not the feeling of success and fulfillment that we’d hoped for, but actually the feeling of burnout and exhaustion. And what good can come from you feeling like this?  So it’s time we ditch this endless cycle we’ve managed to get ourselves stuck in,  and create a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle, so we can continue to reach success in our salons.  &nbsp; That’s why I want to introduce Sonya Stattmann - a business and leadership coach and host of the podcast “Women in the Business Arena”.  Sonya is going to share her tried-and-tested strategies for how to stop the monster of comparison and avoid burnout and overwhelm. &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Learn how to start saying no to things that you don’t want to do Discover how to overcome burnout and overwhelm with 3 simple strategies How to conserve your energy in different parts of your life to focus on the things that matter  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.

Do you find it tricky to keep up with social media?  You know you have to do it, but you often don’t have the time, nor the energy to really put effort into it and prioritise it.  &nbsp; As a result, you can end up posting the bare minimum just to keep things ‘ticking along’. Hair transformation photo after hair transformation photo, before and afters of your team’s latest blonde transformation… you know the one!  After all, it’s just taking one more thing off your busy to-do list. And honestly, kudos to you for getting it done when you can.  &nbsp; But the problem with doing this all the time is that: You end up posting the same thing as everyone else. Every Salon does a full head of highlights, and every Salon has great before and afters. So what sets you apart?  And you might think it’s the great work you do, and that’s definitely part of it, but there’s more to social media than posting about how good your clients look!  &nbsp; Social Media in today’s climate is so overpopulated, so you need to find a simple way to set your salon apart from the rest.  Hint: it’s more simple than you think.  &nbsp; In this episode of the podcast, I want to introduce you to Braeley Davies, Marketing Manager and social media guru here at Salon Owners Collective.  Braeley has joined me on the podcast to share with you the  3 game-changing strategies that every salon owner should be using when posting on social media if you want to set yourself apart online AND most importantly, grow your client base through social media.  &nbsp; Keep listening to hear the incredible marketing strategies that Braeley has up her sleeve…. &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover how to set your Salon apart from other Salons on social media Learn marketing strategies that actually help your business grow How to create a marketing plan and stay consistent with posting Want to know the 10 Best Salon Strategies for Sales and Marketing?  CLICK HERE to grab a copy of my guide   Instagram Checklist: CLICK HERE to grab 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.

The Hair &amp; Beauty Industry has had an undeniably huge shake up! Salons that were once thriving and growing are having to adjust considerably to suit the new industry climate…  the ‘lifestyle effect’ is at large and nobody wants to work late nights or Saturdays. &nbsp; Your team is more demanding than ever and you’re worried that if you don’t meet their demands, they’ll leave. But then if you do give in, you’ll end up back on the floor 50+ hours a week… and you’ll be left feeling resentful! Sure, they can have the lifestyle they want, but does yours have to suffer?! It’s a total double-edged sword!   &nbsp; This is why I want to introduce to you, my two friends, James Carlisle &amp; Lynden James, owners of Vivo Hair &amp; Skin Clinic.  If there is anyone who is making it work against all odds…and for the most part completely unscathed, it’s these two.  &nbsp; With over 90 salons nationwide, they have their finger on the pulse and are implementing the big-rock strategies Salon Owners need to tackle this new ‘norm’ in our industry.  Even post-pandemic &amp; pre-recession James &amp; Lynden are reaching success, on a mission to reach 100 Salon’s by the end of the year.  &nbsp; Let’s hear what the boys from Vivo have to say about the industry and team in particular… &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the latest industry trends Learn expert advice around training apprentices and how to get them to stay with your Salon How to implement the “Lifestyle Effect” within your Salon without sacrificing your business growth.  Rockstar Team Guide: CLICK HERE to get 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.

It’s time to ditch the old way of working in the Salon… And no, I’m not talking about perms and chunky highlights… &nbsp; I’m talking about ditching the grind of working LOOOONG tedious hours in the Salon.  I’m talking about saying goodbye to the 'hustle mindset’ that can creep up when running a business… &nbsp; If you are constantly feeling unfulfilled even when you reach success, or like you constantly have to work harder and do more to be successful, then listen up… This is something I see all the time with Salon Owners (and have experienced myself!). As creative entrepreneurs, we are high achievers, always wanting something more in our business and our lives.  &nbsp; But unfortunately, this will get you a one way ticket to burnout. If you’re constantly looking for ‘what’s next’ without taking time out to stop, breathe, and turn around to see what you’ve accomplished, then you’re never going to feel satisfied or fulfilled.  So it’s time to say bye-bye to hustle culture and HELLO to working smarter (not harder). I want you to move on from always feeling overwhelmed, overworked and stressed, feeling like what you do is never enough. Because I’ll let you in on something…it is! &nbsp; That’s why I wanted to bring someone in who has firsthand helped women all over the world overcome burnout, Brooke Taylor.  In this episode, hear Brooke’s strategies for how to build a healthy relationship with your career, how to overcome CEO-addictions and what it takes to avoid shiny objects when reaching success.  &nbsp; Keep listening to hear Brooke’s incredible success story and her incredible advice now… &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Learn how to heal the “success wound” you probably didn’t even know you had.  Discover how to put an end to a toxic cycle with your career Learn how to feel fulfilled within your role, and the strategies you can implement to say goodbye to the hustle culture.  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.

Have you ever wondered if there was an easier way to ensure clients always come back to the Salon? It can be super frustrating, right? You stress the importance of rebooking to your team, but they fail to do so!  &nbsp; It feels like client relationships are made and efforts are made, but for what? To never see the client again? As an owner, it’s so tiring when you’re not only managing the operations of the Salon and ensuring the business is profitable, but you feel like you have to constantly be on your team’s back about rebooking! You want to be able to trust them to manage all of the clients in the Salon so that they are happy and will come back through your doors instead of the Salon down the road. &nbsp; Did I hit the nail on the head?

Or taking on an educator or trainer role with a product company… Whatever it may be, taking the next step in your journey isn’t always as easy as it sounds, right? When presented with a new opportunity, you may feel hesitant about change, alone, and totally out of your depth to take the next step (hello, imposter syndrome!).  &nbsp; The fear starts to take over, and you start to question yourself, “Am I good enough for this?” “Can I even achieve this?”(I still have this exact conversation with myself all. the. time!).  Fear is something that can be self-sabotaging for CEOs, and you'd be surprised how often our beliefs limit our potential. In this episode, I want to shift your mindset around fear and entrepreneurship, to show you that it is totally normal to not have your sh*t together at all times, and to give you some strategies to harness this type of fear for good.  &nbsp; This is why I want to introduce you to the inspiring, Lindsey Schwartz.  Lindsey is the founder of Powerhouse Women Co - a community built all-around helping kickass business women succeed and go through entrepreneurship together (which is totally up my alley!).  &nbsp; Lindsey is an inspiration to all female business owners and I know you will love what she has to share about the most common limiting beliefs when it comes to pursuing our big ideas, and how to overcome them.

The dream is always to work less and earn more… right? However, there is 1 key to achieving this ‘dream lifestyle’ that so many Owners make the crucial mistake of missing.  &nbsp; Are you guilty of this… I see so many Salon Owners who strive for more, but have no idea of where they’re at currently! &nbsp;  If you don’t know, in-depth, the ingoings and outgoings of your business, then you run the risk of setting yourself up for failure! Of living day to day and never understanding why you aren’t growing… even when you have more clients on your books and a thriving team! Not only this, but you then end up paying yourself last, which results in feeling underpaid and underappreciated for the effort, time, and energy they put into your business.  &nbsp; This becomes a vicious cycle, you become stuck and struggle to move out of this feeling of overwhelm and stress that comes with running your business. The CEO dream that you thought you would be living from the success of your Salon gets further and further away, until it seems unachievable altogether, right? What is the purpose of being a business owner, if you can’t live the lifestyle you so wish for (and deserve!)? &nbsp; This is why I want to introduce you to Erinn Bridgman. Erinn is a business and money coach based in Indianapolis in the US. Her mission is to help women not only understand their numbers and how to have a better relationship with money but how to build their wealthy women's empire…which is absolutely essential in growing a successful Salon business.  In this episode, Erinn is going to share with you her tips all about improving your mindset towards money as the owner of your business and how to feel confident in making financial decisions that better you as a person, employer, and Salon Owner… Keep listening to hear all the incredible strategies up Erinn’s sleeve….   &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Understand how to have a better relationship with money as a Salon CEO  Learn tips on how to know your worth and more importantly, pay yourself what you are worth.  Discover how to feel confident in your financial decisions.  &nbsp; 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.

Isn’t it frustrating when you’re looking to hire someone new, but your recruitment ad gets 0 applications? Every time you put an ad out, you think to yourself that ‘this time will be different and you will finally get your dream team member applying to work for you… but in reality, the results are disappointing and totally uninspiring.  &nbsp; This makes you feel like if nobody is showing any interest in your ad, then they most definitely are not lining up at the door to work for you. It can take a huge emotional toll on you as the Salon Owner.  I totally know how this feels, and let’s be real, it sucks…But in saying this, it is possible to find your dream Salon team in this climate, all it takes is the right strategies and mindset to know what you are looking for and what to expect.  &nbsp; I went live in my Profitable &amp; Successful Salon Owners Facebook Group all-around this topic, as well as introducing our brand new guide “3 Reasons Your Recruitment Ads Don’t Work”. This podcast episode is a sneak peek into this live event as it was so valuable for Salon Owners that joined me, so I knew I had to share it with you. &nbsp; One Salon Owner, Shantelle, received 15 responses to her ad within one week! And has already trialed her favorite applicant … all from using our Rockstar Team Hub strategies Another Salon Owner, Erika, who used our done-for-you ads templates received 4 applications over just a couple of days. And finally, Kelly, another owner, just hired a new senior stylist using the templates! &nbsp; If you too want results, then keep listening to hear all about how to make killer team-attraction ads for your Salon… Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Get an insight into my Facebook Group and a step-by-step look into my guide.  Discover how to attract your dream team to work for you with killer ads.  Understand why your ads aren’t attracting any applicants.  3 Reasons Your Recruitment Ads Don’t Work - Guide CLICK HERE to get your hands on it (it’ll take you to messenger) Rockstar Team Hub CLICK HERE to get access to the Hub 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 if I told you that in order to scale your Salon business Growth, you need to nail these three things:  An effective marketing strategy, understanding your clients, and growing a team. &nbsp; I see so many Salon Owners start to grow exponentially, but then all of a sudden hit a plateau. They can’t seem to move the needle in their business or have the momentum to keep this growth sustainable, especially with team challenges, family time and life outside of the Salon walls… It can feel totally overwhelming, like you are in a business rut!   &nbsp; However, I believe that with an effective and consistent marketing strategy, and an  understanding of what makes your clients tick, you can truly master the art of attracting and retaining clients in your Salon.  I know this is never as easy as it sounds. But if you can nail your client-attraction strategy, understand what makes your clients return (or not), and how to keep new clients coming in your doors without you stepping foot into your Salon doors…your Salon growth will be unstoppable.  &nbsp; This is something I knew I had to get my friend (and highly respected marketing whizz) Danny Tran on the podcast to speak about. Danny knows the latest and greatest about all things business, marketing, and attracting clients to your business.  Danny is the founder and CEO of High Stroke Media, which specialises in creating marketing and brand strategies for makeup artists all over the world (so, right up our alley!). His advice is tailored to the beauty and hair industry, so I know you will take away some amazing tips to use in the Salon, tomorrow! &nbsp; So without further ado, let’s meet Danny.  &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the marketing secrets of the Hair &amp; Beauty Industry Uncover the real reason your clientele isn’t growing Leave this episode with actionable brand strategies and tips to take into the Salon.  Instagram Checklist  CLICK HERE to get your own copy (I’ll send it you in messenger)  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 probably know the saying of throwing spaghetti at a wall and hoping it will stick. Well, are you guilty of doing the same with your marketing strategy? In a crowded industry, failing to create a marketing strategy and a strong Salon brand could be the thing that is holding your business back from growing into a million-dollar Salon.  &nbsp; You know you need to do it, but the actual doing part isn’t as easy as it looks, right? After all, you are busy enough putting out fires within your team, dealing with clients, your own family, and global pandemics, where do you have the time to create a marketing strategy? This is something I hear all the time from Salon Owners, and did you know… &nbsp; Throwing offers and promotions across your Social Media channels without considering whether it’ll resonate with your ideal client and what outcome you want to achieve will only create a marketing message that seems inconsistent and confused…it is not going to give you the results you want…so hold fire on “posting” that 20% “off” offer for now!  What you need is this one secret strategy that will teach you how to grow your business by attracting the right clients to your Salon…. &nbsp; That’s why I want to introduce you to Taylor Rae. Taylor is a one-of-a-kind business coach living in Melbourne, who specialises in strategies ranging from client attraction to manifestation. Taylor works with women all over the world to implement marketing strategies that they need to propel their businesses forward and truly build the salon of their dreams.

Have you ever had someone tell you that you’ll never achieve something? That being a hairstylist will only take you so far? That there is no way that owning a salon will give you a life of freedom or profit?  I did, over and over again when I owned my Salon, and boy was I determined to prove them wrong!  &nbsp; In our industry, everyone's journey to success looks different. Whether you begin your hairdressing apprenticeship at age 16 or age 30, whether you work in a small town or are a globally recognised stylist... Everyone has their own goals and ambitions and your journey is no less successful than the Salon Owner you see on Instagram, winning awards and flying across the world.  &nbsp; Success is actually how you define it. And I believe that reaching success comes down to a clear plan for where you want to go, a roadmap of how to get there, and having the support behind you to achieve it…oh, and don’t forget to have a little fun along the way! (Did someone say ‘wine’?!). &nbsp; So today, I want you to meet the globally recognised and ever-inspiring Patrick Cameron, whom I greatly admire for his dedication to this industry.  Patrick was born and raised in a small town right here in New Zealand, and after 34 years in the industry, is killing it in the UK as a world-leading long hair specialist. &nbsp; He’s also a successful educational speaker with a  training school for hairstylists and has worked with global Salon brands around the world, I know you will find Patrick’s story motivating, I know I certainly do! So, sit back, listen and enjoy! &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Hear Patrick’s inspiring story of his 34 year-long career in the Salon industry Discover how taking risks in your career can pay off Learn Patrick’s expert advice for the Hair &amp; Beauty industry.   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.

Have you ever had a client threaten legal action against you and your Salon? As a Salon Owner, I’m sure you have had had a moment (if not, a few) where you have had to deal with a situation that has gone wrong, like a really bad colouring mistake, and in return had to deal with an unhappy (and frustrated!) client.  &nbsp; Something has gone wrong in the Salon; the service didn’t meet the expectations of the client and you are left to clean up the mess that has been left behind. Sometimes this may mean dealing with further legal action….Eeek!!  Unfortunately, that is just what happens when we work in a service-based, client-based industry, or is it?  &nbsp; Things are going to go wrong, humans are going to make mistakes, but it’s how we overcome these moments where things have gone terribly wrong, and have things in place to prevent them from ever happening again in the future. I want you to always be prepared for the worst-case scenario, the “what ifs”, because it may be the thing that saves your Salon. We need to keep ourselves and our Salons protected from anything that may happen in the future.  &nbsp; So, this is why I want to introduce you to Reonna Green, a hairstylist turned Lawyer living in the United States - how inspiring is that? Reonna is the founder of “She Trademarks” - an attorney that specialises in the beauty and hair world, I take my hat off to her for this!  Because Reonna is so specialised in our industry (there seriously aren’t many hairstylists/ attorneys!) then I know you will soak up everything she has to say on how to protect your Salon when things really turn to sh*t.  &nbsp; So keep listening to this episode and hear what she has to say…. &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover the fine print that you need to have in your Salon contract Learn about the ways you can protect yourself when things go wrong in your Salon Discover why it is important to have a consultation contract in place and how it can be the thing that saves your Salon.  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.

Do you always feel like you have a never-ending to-do list?  Like nothing seems to get checked off, and as soon as that alarm goes off in the morning, you feel like you are already behind before your day has even begun? &nbsp; Then, when your day does begin and you start ticking the things off that you want to get done, someone needs your help with a consultation, a client, or to run and pick the kids up from school, and then your list of priorities gets totally reshuffled.  You often find yourself lying awake at night, going through ALL the things you didn’t get done, instead of focusing on the wins of the day. You’re left feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and always behind with your business. &nbsp; This is a feeling I know ALL too well. It is why I started becoming a Salon Business Coach, because I see it far too often. As a Salon Owner, you end up wearing too many hats and not having enough time to do ‘all the things’…in your business, with your team, with your family and god forbid you have ANY time leftover for you! So, that is why I want to introduce you to the ever-so-lovely, Mridu Parikh. &nbsp; Mridu is the founder of Life is Organised, a company that helps female business owners know exactly what they need to do to become more organised. Mridu is also a business coach, as well as a mum to her two babies!  She has almost the exact same career journey as mine, so I knew that what she had to say about helping business owners with balancing overwhelm and stress, with all your demands and distractions (with your team at work and your team at home), would be a valuable listen for you! &nbsp; I know the advice that Mridu has on this topic will leave you with strategies to make your business and life more productive… so keep listening to hear what she has to say!  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover Mridu’s expert planning tips in the Salon Learn how to avoid overwhelm and stress in your business with this one strategy.

You need a strong Salon team in order to grow and be successful.  &nbsp; But having a team of stylists is only the beginning. You actually need more than just a strong team; you need a team of humans whose actions speak louder than words, who will support you when someone goes on maternity leave, who will cover for the team when others can’t make it in, and who will be able to manage the walls of the Salon, without you having to be there.  &nbsp; Because, as a successful Salon Owner, you want to be spending time away from your Salon, and to do this, feel confident that you can walk away when you need to and have an incredible team who will step up and have your back always...  Now we all know that this isn’t as easy as it sounds, right? &nbsp; Sometimes it feels like you can’t catch a break with your team! You are constantly putting out fire after fire, and you are exhausted by the emotional rollercoaster that is managing humans. Well, I get you, and you are not alone.  For this week’s episode of the Podcast, I want to help you navigate through team explosions. Do you know the ones that make you feel vulnerable and unappreciated? The ones that could lead you to your business-breaking point? &nbsp; I want to share with you my fool-proof, tried, and tested strategies that will prevent these team explosions from happening in the first place. These are strategies that I used when I owned my Salon and that kept things running like a well-oiled machine, even when I wasn’t working in the Salon.

Do you worry that at any given moment, your team may leave and you will struggle to replace them? Like, every time you try to find a new team member or put out an ad, it never seems to work. It feels like no one wants to work for you!  &nbsp; You worry that you will never find any new team members, and since it feels like everyone is looking right now… your chances decrease even more! You feel like everyone else has all the team, and there is none left for you!  &nbsp; It has you constantly on tenterhooks; like you are being held hostage in your own Salon. ... and it’s frustrating because you feel like it’s out of your hands.  Somebody leaves and you have no one to move the clients to, so you get stuck doing them and going back on the floor.  &nbsp; You feel like you are in a constant revolving door, with every 2 steps forward comes 2 steps back.  Well did you know, you could actually be making some crucial mistakes when it comes to hiring.. mistakes I see SO many Salons making. &nbsp; So, grab your copy below, press play, and let’s dive into the episode…  &nbsp; Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: The real reason your job ad is not attracting the right stylists to apply.

Have you recently gone through a breakup?–and no, I’m not talking about a romantic breakup, I’m talking about a TEAM breakup! I actually think a team breakup can be ten times more painful than an actual breakup...AND it’s even worse when they start dating the Salon down the road.  &nbsp; You’re left feeling confused, stressed, and yet again having to solve the problem of why your team isn’t sticking around. Not only that, but you have to spend the time that you were GOING to spend working on growing your business, finding someone to fill the role.  It’s a vicious cycle, and unfortunately one I see all too often. &nbsp; In our industry, this seems to be the most common, neverending problem all Salon Owners face, so you aren’t alone! Why aren’t my team sticking around? Why have I spent so much time training them, only for them to leave 6 months later? Am I not paying them enough?  BUT, what if we shifted our way of thinking?  &nbsp; In this episode of the Podcast, I want you to meet Sheryl Lee-Woodhouse. I have known Sheryl for years and with her extensive background in relationship management and Salon recruitment, you know she is going to give incredible knowledge on what you could be missing when it comes to your team. So, listen to the episode to hear her take on what is happening in the industry and what needs to change.

This is the moment you have been dreaming about since you began your journey as a young Salon apprentice. You’re now ready to take the next big step in your career and begin your journey as the owner of a Salon.  &nbsp; This is something that I believe is the natural stepping stone in your career when you have been in this industry for years and have learned all the hands-on skills you want to. Now, you are after something more, to pursue a different passion, which may be owning a business.  I was itching to dig my feet into something more and owning a business seemed like the perfect fit!  &nbsp; Whilst this is something that I’m sure you have considered at some point in your Salon journey, a lot of the time, people jump into it too quickly without considering all of the ups and downs of what actually owning their own Salon business may look like.  Sometimes, it takes someone else that has been in your shoes before, to let you know exactly what you are getting yourself into.  &nbsp; So, this week I knew I wanted to bring in my dear friend (and someone who I used to coach!), Louise May, to talk about what opening your Salon may look like for you. Louise is not only a Salon mentor, successful business owner, and Magazine editor of Hair Biz Australia, but she is also an incredible mother and wife to her family. Learning from someone that has not only taken the same leap as you but has been successful in doing so, will be so valuable for you listening!

Have you ever had a client walk into your Salon doors and then never return?  &nbsp; Their stylist is left feeling confused and slightly upset. A million thoughts are racing through your head. Did they not enjoy the end result of the colour, cut or style? Was it too expensive? What got missed?  In our industry, we have all had this happen before (I know I have!). It’s just something that you have to accept when running a client-based business…or is it? I want to show you a way to avoid this from happening that has nothing to do with the hair itself.  &nbsp; Just imagine you’re a client who has had the busiest day, work’s been hectic–or perhaps it’s been a tough day with your kids–and you come flying into your hair appointment at a new salon (that you almost forgot about). The hairdresser, who doesn’t know you, your hair, or what you like having done comes over, swings the chair around to the mirror, and starts working away.  At the end of the appointment, you leave the Salon, and whilst you may actually like what the hairdresser has done, you think to yourself that you won’t be returning any time soon.  &nbsp; Do you know why that may be? &nbsp; I know I say this often, but as Salon Owners our job is always more than just hair.  It’s so easy to get caught up in getting your clients in and out of the Salon looking good, but what about actually feeling good?  &nbsp; This is something that I knew I had to get the lovely Natalie Varrasso to talk about in this episode. Natalie was practically born into the industry and has been a Hairstylist/ Salon Owner for 30 years. Natalie is not only the author of the must-read book “Love Your Hair: Discover your Best Hairstyle”, but is known in Australia for her unmatched customer service and incredible consultation settings.  &nbsp; So, let’s dive into the episode and hear all the secrets from Natalie on how to truly provide a 10/10 client experience in our Salons, that will ensure we have clients coming back through our doors each and every time!  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: How to get clients coming back every time without dropping your prices The one thing you are missing with your Salon consultations The real reason you are losing clients to the Salon down the road.

Do you ever look at someone that is successful, someone that is winning at life, and want your life to be the same? We’ve all been there. It’s part of being a human. But I also believe it’s part of our biggest downfall to success and growth.  &nbsp; Why? Because everyone’s story is different and everyone’s journey to success is different. Whether it is the salon down the road, or a Salon you follow on social media, everyone has gone on their own journey to get to where they are.  When I owned my own Salon, I would always admire other Salon owners and compare what their business looked like on the outside to my own. They looked like they had a perfect team, great clients, and even better, a perfect work/life balance.  &nbsp; I want to help you on your journey. I want to share my experience with you, not so that you can compare your journey to mine, but so you learn real-life strategies that actually work and that helped me grow my million-dollar Salon. These are things you can implement in your Salon, so you can become the successful Salon owner you have always dreamed of.
