As a hairstylist, increasing your income isn't always about adding more, it's about deepening the way you communicate, consult, and recommend. In this episode, we explore the mindset shifts and soft skills that make all the difference. You'll learn how to remove the ick from sales by shifting your focus from pushing to partnering. From understanding the stories you tell yourself about selling, to crafting recommendations that actually help your clients feel seen and supported, this conversation goes deep into what it truly means to build trust behind the chair. We'll talk about how retail becomes a tool for transformation, how to simplify your systems, and how the care you give can create a lasting foundation, not just for your client relationships, but for your career. If you've ever struggled with selling retail, felt weird bringing up products, or want to serve better and earn more, this episode is for you.   Download our FREE full proof profit maker HERE: https://small-kiwi-98108.myflodesk.com/nlle1d1php We would love to hear from you, drop a review & we will add you into our next giveaway: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/successful-stylist-academy/id1584273127 Key Take-aways: 1.

Is the way you're perceiving love or acceptance healthy? 4. There are reactive and proactive listeners. Reactive leaders wait until a problem explodes to address it. 5. Never complain about a team member behind their back. 6. As a leader, pull anyone aside to hash out issues and listen. 7. You can't hold team members accountable for what you yourself are not practicing. 8. Proactive leaders set clear standards up front, have it in clear writing, and reinforce them. 9. Proactive leaders address small issues before they become big. 10. Leading by example isn't only about the task, it also needs to be communicated. 11. Explaining why creates purpose behind the task. 12. A script example is: “I'm restocking the backbar because I noticed we're running low, when we stay ahead of this we don't run out in the middle of a service.” 13. “Hey (name) I've noticed a pattern where (address a specific issue), I want to check in with what's going on.” Then pause. 14. Be short and sweet, and direct and kind. 15. Create a framework that surrounds the issue not the person. 16. When you create clear systems and you create consistency, it becomes a ripple effect.

Creating a culture of salon leadership brings up future leaders, making your business more sustainable. 4. Be firm but kind 5. Another reason someone doesn't take responsibility is because they assume someone else will take care of it. 6. When addressing, keep it short and simple, and pull them away privately. 7. When someone owns a task, they're more likely to do it. 8. Create a sanitation list and introduce it at a meeting. 9. Another reason something isn't done is because someone doesn't feel accountable. 10. Try a nomination box to bring team morale together, give a gift card to the most nominated employee. 11.

Focus on clarity over assumption 14. Have policies like this written in a team handbook or policy guide. 15. Address issues 1:1 and not in a group.

Pay off high interest debt first: credit cards can hold an interest rate up to 25% causing the average person to pay 2.5x more than the original purchase. 2. The suggested amount is to pay 15-25% of your income monthly to pay off that debt. 3. Avalanche Method: is a debt repayment strategy where you focus on paying off debts with the highest interest rates first to save the most money on interest over time. 4.

Set aside 10-15% of your income to your savings once you've paid of your remaining debts. The goal is to build 3-6 months of your monthly average spending to hold in your savings. 9. The next step is to open a high-yield savings account, which compounds over time at a higher interest rate allowing you to accumulate more income as the account grows. 10. Compounding means you're growing income from interest continues to grow as the money grows. The more frequently your interest is compounded, the quicker your money grows. 11.

Broadly writ, we're all in the business of data work in some form, right? It's almost like we're all swimming around in a big data lake, and our peers are swimming around it, too, and so are our business partners. There might be some HiPPOs and some SLOTHs splashing around in the shallow end, and the contours of the lake keep changing. Is lifeguarding…or writing SQL…or prompt engineering to get AI to write SQL…or identifying business problems a job or a skill? Does it matter? Aren't we all just trying to get to the Insights Water Slide? Katie Bauer, Head of Data at Gloss Genius and thought-provoker at Wrong But Useful, joined Michael, Julie, and Val for a much less metaphorically tortured exploration of the ever-shifting landscape in which the modern data professional operates. Or swims. Or sinks? For complete show notes, including links to items mentioned in this episode and a transcript of the show, visit the show page.

Danielle Cohen-Shohet, CEO & Founder of GlossGenius, knows first-hand that running a small business in the beauty and wellness space can be extremely challenging. Business owners often find themselves deeply involved in their day-to-day operations, leaving little time to focus on their business's future growth. To solve this problem, Danielle bootstrapped and built GlossGenius from the ground up. GlossGenius is a software payment company for small businesses in the beauty and wellness industry. GlossGenius handles everything from appointments to marketing, so business owners can concentrate on what matters most. As a highly mission-driven company, Danielle is creating the hands-on impact she has always dreamed of by focusing on customer success. As Danielle states, our customer success is our success.
