3 Ways to Resession Proof Your Salon |

A beauty professional needs to understand that there are 3 ways to increase and recession proof his salon business. And it's really as easy as pie. Almost all of them confide in each other and have developed what I like to call the herd mentality, which means that most of them do exactly what all the other stylists do and all of them are getting the same dismal results. But if you'll expose your mind I'll give to you the best way to do what others don't. Continual growth with your business is critical. That you should understand. And it can only happen these three ways: 1. Get more clients - almost 95% of all businesses focus on only this one point– and that is one of the most unfortunate mistakes that a business can make. Everyone wants more clients … and that's all that they go after. But if you have got clients now or at least customers that come in to you now, those are the ones that will help you the most to earn more money and build your business. 2. Get your clients to buy more -when you treat your clients with respect and talk to them intelligently you can suggest to them that the reason you use a particular shampoo is because of the healthful qualities of the product and what the positive effects it has for your clients. Then they don't think that you're selling them but teaching them why this product is better than brand X. 3. Get your clients to buy more often -Now the other area of need is instructing them that after 4 to 5 weeks their hair needs to be cut to maintain a healthy look and feel and that way you're helping them, and scheduling them more often for a trim Don't be afraid to pull out your planner. Be proactive; with your pen in hand ask them which date would work best for them (suggesting dates that you have open) and wait for them to respond.
