On this episode of the Growing with Purpose podcast, host Paul Spiegelman speaks with Chelle Neff, CEO and founder of Urban Betty, an award-winning salon and spa with three locations in the Austin, TX area.   Chelle grew up without a lot of opportunity; her parents had her when they were very young, and didn't have a lot to support her financially. But one opportunity Chelle did have, and took on wholeheartedly, was a cosmetology program offered through her high school. Seeing as this program was a fraction of the price of a standard cosmetology school, Chelle saw this as her chance at a path forward. Straight out of high school, Chelle began working at a Supercuts, and then moved up to higher end salons.   But during her time working for other salons, Chelle noticed a business pattern that she didn't like. In most salons, stylists rent a chair with which to receive clients, but that rental comes with unexplained service fees. Not to mention an overall lack of transparency and connection with the owner of any given salon, and Chelle knew that the typical salon culture (or lack thereof) was something she wanted to change.    Tune into this episode to hear Paul and Chelle discuss Chelle's rocky road to a successful business model, her passion for elevating the industry to be seen as a respectable career, and how she hopes to improve as a leader.    Show Notes: 4:53 - Being the change in the industry 10:51 - Building a sense of community 18:00 - “I want to elevate our industry” 22:45 - Growing pains 33:16 - “Please ask for help”

In this episode of Built to Stay we interview Chelle Neff. After working as a hairstylist, Chelle started her own salon, Urban Betty, that paid on commissions. Fast forward a decade and there are now 2 locations with 50 employees. Chelle is now working with her husband to build up Weird Homes Tours, an event that takes you inside the most creative homes around the country.

Sometimes we have to let go to get to that next level. Our life, business, relationships, and health will all reflect the power, or lack thereof, felt within. Often, the mind will attempt to sabotage. Until we step into the power that’s been there all along. Replace panic with action. Fear with love. Grief with hope. Our healing doesn’t take place when we hide. We create our vision through stepping into our power, belief in ourselves, and opening our hearts to allow others in to help, guide, support and love. And then we give back. And the circle of life begins again. In our first episode, I talk about mindset, transformation and attraction with Chelle Neff, Founder of Urban Betty Salon. Chelle Neff has been a leader in the U.S. salon industry since founding Urban Betty in 2005 and has more than 20 years of experience creating innovative practices in the salon and beauty worlds. Neff has successfully grown Urban Betty’s revenue year after year and today has a space that houses more than 60 employees. So successful was the first location that she opened the second Urban Betty Salon in 2019. You will learn: * How to step into your power * What it means to have a vision * How your mind will attempt to sabotage success * What to do when you hit rock bottom * How one entrepreneur went from - $8,000 to + $2.4M * What happens when you decide to make it happen * How to fuel your personal health and relationships * The truth behind grief, pain and fertility Some of the questions I asked: * What does it mean to own your power? * What would your advice be to someone that may be hitting their rock bottom, yet deep down knows that there is something more? * As a motivated, driven female entrepreneur, what would you say keeps you grounded in your relationship to be able to do it all? * Is there a place in your life right now where you feel disempowered in your life or thought pattern? * How have you overcome the pain and the fear through each step to get to where you're at now?

Let’s face it, whether you own 1, 2 or 10 Salons- balancing your time and attention between all your different roles can be TOUGH. There are staff members to manage, on floor operations to oversee, and all the behind the scenes jobs like accounts, paperwork, marketing, sales management and other business activities that non-business owners don’t even think about… the list just goes on and on! It can feel never-ending. You want to grow and expand your business, but there’s just so much to do!  In this episode of the Podcast, I’m chatting with Chelle Neff, who has grown her Salon Urban Betty in Austin, Texas, from being a 6 chair, booth rental salon, to now having 2 locations with 58 employees.  Chelle’s journey has not been easy. The opening of her second Salon started off as a 2 week job, but ended up taking almost a year. Chelle wants to pass what she’s learnt from this rollercoaster experience on to other Salon & Spa Owners like yourself.  In the episode, Chelle and I chat about the different dynamics between a smaller and larger Salon,  and her top tips on how to make sure you’re ‘showing up’ in all the places.  Chelle dives into topics ranging from team politics to budgeting and the simple ways that she stays connected with each member of her large team. We discuss things like,  how to know when it’s time to open another Salon, and how to remain present within your growing business. In this episode, you’ll learn about: The rollercoaster of growing your business Handling team dynamics Differences between larger and smaller salons Budgeting realness How to balance time and effort When is the right time to open a second salon   Recommended Links HERE (https://salonownerscollective.com/podcast/make-work-whatever-takes/) to listen to my other Podcasts with Chelle CLICK HERE (https://www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown_on_vulnerability/transcript?language=en) to watch Brené Brown's Ted Talk about leaning into the uncomfortable CLICK HERE (https://www.amazon.com/Little-Voice-Mastery-Between-Extraordinary/dp/1590792157) to check out Blair Singer's Book Little Voice Mastery CLICK HERE (https://www.instagram.com/urbanbettysalon/) to see Urban Betty on Instagram CLICK HERE (https://urbanbetty.com/) to see Urban Betty's Website

Weird is as much a part of Austin as bats, queso and breakfast tacos. The homes of Austin are no different. David J. and Chelle Neff have been exploring and documenting this obscurism in detail and collecting the bizarre to share it with the world. After having already written a book on the subject and creating a homes tour now in five cities and growing, David turns his attention to the exploding medium of podcasting.Produced by Statesman Media, this human interest podcast delves into the homes that carry their unique status as a badge of honor and, more importantly, explores the people that make these houses into homes. It’s the stories, interests, creativity and passion of these guests that truly engages the audience.  

So, you’re ready to own the role of “salon owner.” In fact, you might be in the process of fully stepping up as a CEO, and the thoughts of additional salon locations are looking lucrative. If this describes you, you’re going to love listening to my conversation with today’s guest, Chelle Neff, the owner of Urban Betty Salon in Austin, Texas. Since the last time Chelle was on the podcast (a little over a year ago), she’s fully transitioned off the floor and from behind the chair, and into the true role of salon owner. Now with her days focused primarily on marketing, cultivating successful salon management practices, and the greater vision of where she wants to take her business, she’s grown to the point of now working to open Urban Betty's second location. Listen in as we talk about the steps she took to make those transitions possible and the mindset shifts that came with it.
