As business owners, we often face challenges that our family and friends don’t get. It’s like trying to explain quantum physics to a rock. They’re not even really sure what it is you DO for a living… And trying to vent to your team about these challenges? Let’s just say, that’s like trying to put out a fire with gasoline.

The Real Reason Your Business Isn’t Growing

January 02, 2023 08:00 - 50 minutes - 69 MB

I get tons of DMs everyday from beauty business owners reaching out to me for help.

What Does It Actually Look Like To Stop Trading YOUR Time for Money? Just Ask Momentum Mastermind Coach Victoria Parrish

December 07, 2022 08:00 - 51 minutes - 70.9 MB

Does this sound familiar?  You’re trying to build out a team BUT: Your business revenue is totally dependent on YOU generating sales from your clients so you’re still in the treatment room the majority of the week taking clients.

December 02, 2022 08:00 - 21 minutes - 38.6 MB

The same skills that made you successful as a solo artist do NOT translate to success in building out a team. It’s a whole different ball game building out a team of revenue producing machines who help you grow your business and where you are no longer trading your time for money.

Today we are talking about the unconventional way she became a salon owner and...

Today I’m talking with Nikki Ferris of Dollhaus Beauty Co who - prior to working with me - had never heard of such a thing as hiring a business coach.

Why I Can’t Stand Commission-Based Pay For Your Team

November 14, 2022 15:00 - 21 minutes - 28.8 MB

Every time I speak on this topic, it ruffles some feathers… Because hiring employees and offering commission-based pay is the “norm” in our industry - and it really SHOULDN’T BE (in my opinion). So I will continue to shout from the rooftops that commission-based pay is bad for beauty businesses AND their team members because the way MOST businesses in our industry structure their pay doesn’t provide consistency and stability for the team member NOR the business trying to build that team ...

November 07, 2022 07:00 - 36 minutes - 49.8 MB

Do you really need an accountant? This is the perfect time of year to start interviewing and finding an accountant to help you learn the financial ins and outs of running a business and to help you understand what you need to know as far as taxes. It can absolutely seem overwhelming to face your finances, especially when it's not exactly booming - but I can assure you if you commit to learning just the basics of business finance - you will feel so much more empowered and confident in how...

I (LOVINGLY) want to call you out on your BS (belief system) that's robbing you of growth! Just because you don't know how to do something - doesn't mean you don't do it! It means you have got to prioritize learning how to do it!

I Have A TROLL!!

October 17, 2022 07:00 - 17 minutes - 23.9 MB

I have a TROLL!! 🤣🥳 And no, it's not the cute kind that sings catchy songs!  I was told I'm a "trend chasing moron" and look "hideous with a low IQ" on a Reel that I posted. I know that receiving these types of comments - or any negative comment for that matter - is a FEAR for many business owners and likely why they hesitate with putting themselves out there when it comes to marketing their business online.  If you guys are afraid of putting yourself out there because of stuff like ...

You Are NOT a Victim to Where Your Time is Spent!

October 10, 2022 07:00 - 22 minutes - 31 MB

You are NOT a victim to where your time is spent! As an employee - sure, it can be argued that if you work more, you make more - likely when you're paid hourly and get overtime when you work past your standard hours of work. This thinking as a CEO is WHY your business is not growing, why you're stressed and overworked or overwhelmed or just flat out OVER IT! You are the Master Chess Player of your business and it's your role to strategically manage the resources of the business (i.e. t...

Here’s How You Know If You Can Really Afford to Hire a Team Member

October 03, 2022 07:00 - 34 minutes - 47.5 MB

Ah, I love data. I really do! I know it can be very draining and dull and boring, but I promise you - my fellow anxiety sufferers - the data is really what's going to help you make decisions in your business that aren't based on emotion, but actual informed decisions based on data. Know Your Numbers. Does the business need more sales? Does it need less expenses? Maybe a combination of the two? How do we create more profitability so you can pay yourself? Do you want to add on a team member?...

The #1 Way to Not Fail at Running A Business

“How do I not fail at running a business?” That's the question I was recently asked. And we're gonna talk about…what even is FAILURE? How do you avoid it at all cost? I know this is going to sound really cliche - but failure is not an option. I don't want you to even give yourself failure as an option. “Failure” is typically a meaning that you give to an unknown set of circumstances where you would walk away from your business… But starting today, I want you to redefine what failure me...

Why “Appointment Available” Posts Indicate a Growth Problem

September 19, 2022 07:00 - 13 minutes - 18.2 MB

I ruffled some feathers and created a JUICY debate in a recent Instagram post! The post was in response to a question I was asked about "How do I advertise that I have appointments available without looking desperate?". My answer - you don't. And I explained why you don't and what to focus on instead, which was super valuable for the 90% of my audience who is not fully booked.

Today, we're going to be answering a question I got on Instagram which is:  “How do I advertise that I have appointments available?

August 29, 2022 07:00 - 26 minutes - 36.3 MB

Today I’m answering this question I received in an Instagram DM:  “How do you single-handedly run a business? There is no time to grab a sip of water, let alone get up and give each client the proper hello and see you later I would desire. Or getting back to potential and current clients during the day. I feel like my entire focus goes into when I'm in the chair, and there's no time for anything else.” You are not a victim of your time… You are the CEO, the business owner, the boss - a...

Why you don’t have to be on social media

August 15, 2022 07:00 - 20 minutes - 29.5 MB

I recently had a conversation with one of my mastermind members who has so much DEMAND for her and her team that she needs to hire several more team members to keep up with the demand. We were discussing her goals and she said a big focus of her’s was “I need to start making reels for the business” and I asked why. Her answer:  “Because I need to market the business.”  She ALREADY has more demand than she can handle for her AND her team. But it’s not wise to ever stop marketing your bu...

August 08, 2022 07:00 - 20 minutes - 37 MB

Lately we’ve had several members inside The Lashpreneur Society asking about this topic and I thought - if I'm seeing this come up with this level of frequency with our members - chances are, a good percentage of you are thinking the same thing.  And that is about a recession.

Mental Health and Business Ownership - It’s OK to Not Be OK (Part 1)

July 18, 2022 07:00 - 44 minutes - 40.9 MB

It is often too easy to look at business owners or influencers in our industry - especially those that have a platform and a lot of followers - and think they’ve got it all “figured out”. Like they’re just living the highlife. I want to assure you that this is NOT always the case - in fact it rarely, if EVER is.  I’ve gone through the experience of having my mental health tank, as I’m sure many of you listening have. I still go through big ups and downs, they’re just not as scary for me an...

My Secret Weapon For A Better Customer Experience

July 11, 2022 07:00 - 16 minutes - 30.8 MB

I recently attended an event for one of my biz buddies, Britt Seva - a stellar business coach for hairstylists, called Thrivers Live. One thing that really resonated with me that one of the speakers spoke about was having EMPATHY in how you handle the clients in your business.  When a client gets unhappy - It’s usually caused by two factors - either they don't like the results, OR they didn’t  like the experience. Depending on their comfort level of communicating with the business on their...
