The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. To get the the next level in your business you have to have measurable benchmarks. You can't change what you don't measure. This week, I also talk about getting clear on the goals and activities that are the needle movers in your business. What is your next level in business? Don't get to comfortable...you have a next level, but how will you get there? Remember to play BIG this week and don't be afraid to rock the boat.

    **New Episode!!** The 7-Figure Salon Podcast Episode #44 It seems like everyone is online these days, and even if they are not a follower they are looking to make sure your business is legit. I'm not on social much myself, actually if it wasn't for the FB groups I'm in, and the fact that I have to have the personal page to have the business pages I wouldn't even have a page. But I do look online when I meet someone quickly to check them out and get a sense of ……maybe validation of what they have shared about themselves or their business. A business colleague made a comment to me the other day about the fact that we had just under 500 followers for each of our Strut accounts. I thought about that comment for a few minutes and then asked if they minded if I shared a few of my thoughts on that with them and this is what I said that I hope you find value from too: 1. It's not about vanity followers. It's buyers and potential clients who stalk your page that matter. 2. Don't just post to post. Post content of value that inspires. 3. Keep showing up. Consistency is KING in this game.   Now, If you'd like help with how to maximize social and drive traffic into your salon, you can visit our website the7figuresalon.com and book a free 30 minute discovery call and we'll see how we can help you with your business and lifestyle goals.

    The 7-Figure Salon Podcast Episode #42 We are halfway through the year! We all start the new year strong but by mid-year, most of us have fallen back into old habits. So I like to do a mid-year review: take some time to reset, look at the past 6 months, check in with what progress I've made, and identify what changes I need to make to finish 2021 off strong. I'm doing that this week. Let me share with you a few of the questions I ask myself mid-year to reset and finish the year strong. What were your 3 BIGGEST goals this year? Based on your goals, where have you been most consistent with the behavior needed to achieve them? What behaviors do I need to start to achieve my goals by the end of the year? What behaviors do I need to stop? As I always say it's easier to correct sooner rather than later...we still have half a year left to reach our 2021 goals and finish the year strong.

Easily to work with...everyone on best behavior as we have a common acquaintance. #2 They tell their friends - Actually my favorite - the trust is already built. People buy from those they know, like and trust. #3 You have Social Proof – They may not believe our advertising but potential clients will believe when someone like them, got the result they want from our salon. #4 Networking - This goes back to the age old vantage that your net worth is directly correlated to your network. Who do you know... #5 Ask for Referral - I've found this a little harder asking who you know that may need our service in the salon business...but I do casually mention “if you know someone” Hater's can't hate on results - haters happen...but when you have so much social proof you leave them speechless.   Question for you to ponder this week------ Where could you be leaving money on the table???     If you love our new format (we now host our episodes on YouTube) and our show, please leave us a review.
