    “Frick… I’m exhausted”

    When you first open your Salon, you’re excited! Excited to be your own boss, have your own space, your own team… and make your own money! But the excitement wears off and 3 years down the track you feel completely exhausted. You begin to feel like a glorified stylist that also has the stress paying people. 

    I felt like this too. And it was hard because you feel emotionally drained, you’re working 60 hours a week and you're not growing!

    But the difference between a $1 Million Salon and a $500K Salon is…. they have skill… 

    The skills to know when to Step Up, Out and Off the Floor!

    In today’s episode of the Salon Owners Collective Podcast, Salon Mastery Boardroom coach, Joel, is sharing how you can become unstuck in your Salon…

    The One Thing That Will Increase Your Cash Flow in January

    December is often your busiest month… every single client you have ever served comes to your Salon right before Christmas!

    Which is great, but it means January and February are very quiet! And it can be quite stressful. You’re on a high, just had your best December and then you kick off the New Year very gappy and struggling to get clients booked in. But what if there was something that you could do to boost your Salon’s cash flow by $20 - 30k in January and February? Something that is easy to implement, you could kick it off in December when you’re talking to your 5-star clients and it’s not going to feel like a massive project that you’re starting at the end of the year… I’m talking about memberships! This is something that I implemented into my Salon (I actually did it because we wanted to renovate!) and I loved it… So it was fitting that I bring Shortcuts co-founder Jo, back on the Salon Owners Collective Podcast as she was the one that actually told me about this strategy all those years ago!

    Here is The One Thing That Will Increase Your Cash Flow in January 

    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn how to boost your cash flow in January
    2. Understand how memberships work
    3. Know the steps so you can get started now!

    Turning Followers Into Lifelong Clients…

    Only 6% of your followers will see your Instagram post! 

    Crazy, right? We put so much time and effort into taking the perfect picture and writing the perfect caption… and then almost none of our followers get to see it! And what’s even crazier… it takes 6 months of emails or DMs before a client even books their first appointment with you.

    Marketing seems like a lot of work to have to wait 6 months for one new client!


    But what if there’s something you could do to make your social media marketing more effective? The best part, once you’ve set it up… it does all the work of ‘warming up’ followers to become clients so that you don’t have too!


    I’m talking about automating EVERYTHING; comments, DMs, REPLIES to DMs! Automations change the way you do your marketing. I’ve loved and used automatons for years… in fact, you may have received an automated message from me before… 


    If you want to grow your Salon and attract new clients, automations is the way to go!


    I am very excited to be sharing with you this chat that I had with Georgia, a Marketing superstar and owner of SalonBot about all things automations.


    This is the Turning Followers Into Lifelong Clients… 


    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn what is an automation
    2. Understand how to use automations to attract new clients
    3. Know how to successfully implement automations into your marketing

    Salon Owners Need Holidays Too!

    I can’t go on holiday… what if someone is sick? Or a client complains? And what will my team do if a pipe bursts?! 

    The thought of leaving your team can be super stressful and that’s before you’ve even booked any flights! But sometimes, a holiday away from your team is actually the best thing you can do for your business… 

    You come back feeling refreshed, with new fresh ideas on how you’re going to elevate your Salon (I mean… it’s hard to completely shut off and not think about your business!). And your team has a new sense of confidence that they can keep everything running smoothly without you. 

    But it takes some time to get to a place where you trust your team enough to leave them for a week (or maybe 6!) and that they feel prepared and ready to know what to do to manage daily operations.  

    Salon Mastery Boardroom Coach, Joel and I are sharing the 5 steps to prepare your team for your holiday! 

    Here is Salon Owners Need Holidays Too!

    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn the MEDAL framework
    2. Understand how to prepare your team for your holiday
    3. Know how to give your team the tools to succeed

    3 Steps to a Marketing Mindset
    She had $70K in her everyday account but still tried to barter!  Everyone may be talking about the economic crisis, but not everyone is affected by the economic crisis. Your clients can afford to come to the Salon and pay full price for their service… and buy a product or two before they leave.  And if they're not, it’s because you’re not marketing your value! Have you stopped buying fresh flowers for reception? Moved from shelves full with products to only a handful for clients to buy? Are you complaining with your client about how expensive everything is right now? All of these changes (although they may seem small) are eating away at your value. Instead of communicating that you’re a Salon that people can come to relax and feel pampered… you’re telling people that you’re struggling too.  For clients to prioritise and value you and your Salon, you need to move to a Marketing Mindset… I am very excited to be sharing with you this chat that I had with Milly, a Salon Owner who’s marketing mindset took her $15K Salon to $60K, 6 months after she bought it!

    This is the 3 Steps to a Marketing Mindset 

    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn why value is important
    2. Understand how to communicate your value to clients
    3. Know how to adopt a Marketing Mindset

    How She Increased Monthly Revenue by $75K

    Do you stay awake at night thinking about cash? 

    I know I have definitely had many sleepless nights thinking about how I’m going to be able to pay the team, how am I going to pay the bills… how am I going to pay MY bills at home? It can be a non-stop conversation that goes on in our heads! But, I have the answer to solving all of your money problems… and it’s not redesigning another package or offering a discount…  In fact, the answer is something that a lot of other industries do already… including the gym and Netflix! Memberships are the secret to moving your Salon forward, helping you to plan (and see) your Salon’s future growth. Memberships will also help you rebook and retain 5-Star Clients™!

    Million Dollar Mindset: 5 Lessons You Need to Know

    I used to worry that people would judge me for being successful…

    But over time, I learnt that it’s ok if people judge because money makes the world go around. I’m a big believer that profit is a choice. There are many decisions we make as a business owner that will ultimately impact whether or not we are profitable. And having a Million Dollar Mindset makes all the difference.  And to grow your Salon… you NEED to have a Million Dollar Mindset. In the Salon Mastery Program, I like to say DTFW or Do The Fricken Work. Which basically means if you want to be profitable, you need to actually do the work! No more ‘but Larissa, I’ve never been good at maths”... 

    If you’re want to make a $1 Million (and pay yourself too #CEOLife) there are 5 lessons you need to learn. 

    I’m sharing the 4 steps that will help you DTFW and become profitable in your Salon! It will be a game changer for not only your business, but your life. This is:  Million Dollar Mindset: 5 Lessons You Need to Know

    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn why profit is a choice

    When to Expand or Sell Your Salon

    When is the right time to just jump and expand your Salon?

    Your team is booked and busy, clients are coming in and things are starting to feel a little cramped. Do you expand into a larger space, or even open a second location! But what if you stop growing and suddenly you’re stuck paying rent you can’t afford…  Or what happens if, out of the blue, someone offers to buy your Salon!   Do you take the first offer you receive? Try and negotiate? Or shop around and see if anyone else is interested in buying your Salon?    Both decisions are equally big and life changing! And sometimes, they’re decisions that you spend weeks, months or even years going back and forth on what to do… that you end up never making a decision at all!  I’ve talked to a few Salon Owners recently who are making these life changing decisions right now!   I knew the perfect person to talk to about expanding and selling your Salon, is Hady, founder and former CEO of Forme Spa… she grew her Salon to 9 locations before selling.  This is When to Expand or Sell Your Salon…

    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn what it takes to expand or sell your Salon
    2. Understand when it’s time to make a change in your business
    3. Know how to make that life changing decision

    What Your Accountant Isn’t Telling You..
    How many times do you talk to your accountant? Just during tax time, right? And then maybe once or twice more throughout the year when you’re making a big business decision. But, you should be talking to your accountant every quarter at the very least… if you want to fast track your Salon’s growth! I’m going to say it again, your number will always tell you what to do and what leavers you can pull to grow.  If you’re not looking at your numbers on a regular basis, how are you going to know if you can afford to give your stylist a pay rise? Do you need to increase your prices? Should you be changing your products? What SHOULD you do next to move the needle in your business?  These are decisions that shouldn’t be limited to once or twice a year… you should be reviewing and evaluating all the time! I’m excited to share this conversation I had with the wonderful Jolene and Kristi from the Summa Collective about looking at the numbers to grow your Salon.  Here is What Your Accountant Isn’t Telling You..    

    Here is why you should listen to the full episode:

    1. Learn why you need to know your numbers
    2. Understand how to use the numbers to grow
    3. Know how often to meet with your accountant
