[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] When I owned my Salon, I made it a practice to visit other Salons. I was fortunate because as an Educator in this Industry, I travelled around the Country. I would use that time to schedule appointments at local Salons for massage, facial or pedicure services. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text] The idea was to learn new […]

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Whether you call your service a waterless pedicure, a dry pedicure or a soak-less pedicure, the biggest challenge we have is being able to convince our clients…it’ll be okay. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text] Pedicures inherently, include the process of soaking our feet. This is what has been the norm, and this is what our clients want.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] I think it is safe to say, we have all learned some valuable lessons over the past year and a half. Some may have been personally, some may have been professionally. Regardless of what arena or how that lesson came about and how they changed you, isn’t really important. It’s what we do with

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] When I first went into Business for myself, it was in Office Supplies. I had all these grandiose ideas to grow my Business and make a good future for myself and whomever may end up being in my life. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text] I worked hard and believed at that time, where I was is where

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] We are now 6-months into 2021. Much of 2020 is put behind us. We have somewhat retrieved back to a routine. Some are still doing the same and many have opted to make some major changes in their lives.   [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text] It’s evident by the conversations on social media, we are ready and

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] We so often allow ourselves to get upset over what other people do to us. Whether it be the client who arrived late for their appointment or the sales clerk who was just nasty to us. We let other people affect our moods, our being, our aura. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text] It happens so easily we

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I was speaking with one of my Mfg’s the other day, talking about many things in relation to Business and how Covid has affected our supply chains, our pricing…our clients.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text]As we were talking I realized how the Covid card continues to play a hand in our everyday lives.  I would like to say the

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Most of you know, Centre For Beauty is a small Business. We don’t have sales people on the road. Never had. My Business has grown through EBM (Education based Marketing).     [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text] It is certainly a slow way to grow a Business. However, I will say, the age of social media has

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] We had some friends over on Memorial Day. A much needed (on my part) visit. As 2021 keeps rolling, my traveling is on steroids. Maybe I’m making up for the loss of 2020 or maybe I’m just feeling revived and excited to get back on the road. In any case, there is not much

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] As I get back into the swing of things and present more “in house” classes, I’m reminded of myself many many years ago. Sponging off anyone with knowledge that I can (I still do), trying to duplicate their speaking intelligence and wondering if I will ever come across as knowledgeable and professional.
