The beauty industry has changed dramatically in the last 10 years. The days of hoping your good reputation and referrals was enough to grow or maintain your clientele died out and successful stylists today need a real marketing strategy. It's actually never been easier to grow a clientele as a hair stylist or a business as a salon owner, yet stylists are giving up or struggling more often than they are thriving in this incredible industry. When I was first building my clientele, I realized immediately that nobody was teaching true business skills and long term strategies to stylists or salon owners. What good is a license and an entrepreneurial passion without the skills and knowledge to actually make big things happen? The Thriving Stylist podcast is a collection of interviews from super successful but not yet famous stylists, one-on-one coaching opportunities and actionable, strategic marketing techniques that you can use in your business today to see real results. I'm Britt Seva, Social Media & Marketing Strategist for Hair Stylists and I look forward to helping you to create a wealthy life as a stylist.

#051-An Interview with Angelina Caceres

#051-An Interview with Angelina Caceres

I have a treat for you today, as I’m bringing you a Thriving Stylist Spotlight with my very own cousin, Angelina Caceres! Angelina joined the industry just a couple of years before I did and she was somebody that I very much looked up to as I was building my clientele. In this episode Angelina explains (very humbly I think!) how she became a salon owner so quickly in 2007, right when the recession hit, and how she didn’t let it slow her down. You’ll hear the way she grew her business over the years and the journey to now moving into a new and improved location in a building she’s purchased. What I love about this interview is that Angelina keeps it real. Sure she’s had tons of success, but she’s also had to overcome a lot of challenges. From learning how to lead to a team, to balancing motherhood with being a stylist and owner, you’re going to hear everything that she’s learned along the way.

Today I am bringing you another amazing Thriving Stylist Spotlight, and I’m talking to my friend Callie McWhirter. I met Callie almost two years ago through my Thrivers Society program that she joined as a brand new stylist (actually she was still in cosmetology school at the time)! Callie knew that she needed some kind of guidance as far as how to build a real strong clientele right from the start, and I feel so fortunate to have been with her through her entire professional journey. From the moment I met Callie in person at my most recent retreat, I knew she was something special. Today you’re going to hear how Callie was able to find her calling, and how she grew her clientele naturally while based in a small town in Texas. I knew Callie had a story that we had to share, so I’m really excited to have her here with us to tell it!
