Dive In! 3 Keys 2 Stay Strong in Business



EYE On GREEN MAGAZINE – CEO & Publisher answers some tough questions.
How to Hang-Tuff when the road gets Ruff.  Three abilities needed to stay solid in Business.

I have received so many questions on Salons Going Green… http://www.linkedin.com/pub/terry6106-ruvo/28/424/b88 Topics range from: What goods should I carry, to What type of staff should I hire.  All of which are excellent questions. To go further with giving my group on linkedIn a heads-up  on the industry, I always feel giving people knowledge and information is the best way to make a beauty to business connection. Thus, it is the best way to get people to change the industry for the better.   First, ask yourself these Top 3 questions:   Do you have Drive, Dedication and Determination to revise and change your current business plans?  These questions are most important for anyone that is in business, and wants to stay in business tomorrow.  If you’ve obtained one of the Big D’s,  then you are on the right track.   If  not, then please, don’t run in the race of business change. Change, is what it is all about. Exhausting and exhilarating…business is always changing.
Drive is the force that gets you out of bed in the morning. Drive is the “Fire in your Belly.”  Dedication and Determination are much harder to sustain….especially if you are going through rough times to get “your piece of the pie.” or how about “shearing off a bit from the top.” Yes, I am talking about money.  Money  being an ultimate compelling factor. But money should never be the only factor. With dedication you will make major sacrifices and by keeping yourself and others motivated you  will get   through the rough road ahead…just keep your eye on the “Big Picture” till the end.   I like keeping my EYE ON BEAUTY, as many know.  I am dedicated  to beauty, the business, consulting salons go green. 

That leads me to my next objective to consider for the Salon Going Green Business or any business of your dreams. To stay above the game – dive below.

Loyalty has been a problem forever. Clients change salons all the time, and so do their stylists. 
#1 motivator – get your staff involved in some decision making. Ask them for their input and feedback.  Surprisingly, this idea will keep your crew with you.  Giving your staff credit for your success is more important than pay rate…people like to know that YOU care about their view (s). This gives confidence, respect and inspires them. It is a Quick Easy Fix!

Customer Loyalty - why should a customer stay loyal when your competition is giving 50% off on new clients? Or half price massages…?  Idea: Why not let the customer choose their next service at 50% off.  Give the customer choices….don’t make the rules, bend and customize packages per client needs.  If you are a full-service salon, there is a range of options that you can give your clients.  The goal is to keep your return customers, while getting new clients in the door!

Buying the Right Products and what to do if you buy the wrong ones!
First, when buying products (organics, green) don’t buy products that customers can purchase at the local drug store…don’t even carry the same products as other competing salons.  It stands to reason, if you are the only source carrying organics, then you are the only source that  your customers buy from.  DO NOT Buy the MLM routine…these companies make money from you by insisting that purchasing a minimal amount of product per month.  There are very small returns, with MLM if any...  Go with low start up packages, no sign-up fees, no monthly fees.  Go with an Organic Product…if it is not Organic…don’t buy it.  I recommend going with skincare that is unisex.  I am building a sales force with BlackBox cosmetics.  Anyone that is on my team will have lifetime visibility, consulting on the brand, advice and knowledge on building their own business.  It is easy to win the race if you have support from great leadership.  The kicker for me is…. helping others with their dream…especially, if it is green. See the BlackBox cosmetic packages here.  BlackBox 4 Men and Women   
If you have a new spa, BlackBox is essential for organic salons. Get "VuDu" -  Get on Box.  BlackBox 4 Men

Your Commitment:   No matter what you decided  your commitment is essential.  Stay focused on your Passion and Purpose always… Stay committed to product for 1 year to see results. Don’t ever give up – and you will beat the odds and stay in business!

Men's Skincare - The "O" Factor




Your man’s got it for the “pampering and primping thing?”  Going back a couple of years ago, I never saw a man at the local wax bar…like, how did this happen?   Usually, these guys are not seen in public and they would keep their waxing sessions a secret.  Not anymore…men have needs too, just like women in the beauty lounge.  A shave and a hair cut won’t do the job.  Men want footbaths and facials….Oh, yeah baby!  They do spa days with their female counter parts…certainly the best of both worlds. The secret is not necessary in the treatment; it is in the “product.”  How do you give your male clientele the BIG “O”…? Using Organics will  get  him hooked and coming back for more. Factoring organics into the male epidermal equation is key.  How so? Chiefly, the function of organic skincare is vital in healing and soothing men’s skin.  Guys do not want to reek, that’s a fact!  It is principle that choosing organics for men need to be satisfying for this sole purpose of care rather than whiff!  Scent is secondary and should never be strong.  Most guys want no-smell in skincare.  Men’s skincare is less on “scent” and more on “fresh.”  Try these organics on your male buddies!

Top Favorite for Men – “FROST” Face Wash



Containing Tea Tree extract & TeaTtree oil   - leaves his  face feeling cool, clean, and fresh.. it has a large dose of natural skin bacteria killers and it is non-comedogenic. Frost does not contain harmful sulfates or parabens. It is organically preserved.  Only  $14.95    BlackBox 4 Men



Products that I use and recommend are BlackBox Cosmetics.  It is skincare that Men & Women want.  Organics is becoming priority in spa care.  Offering BlackBox is the best choice that works for men and is always organically preserved.

Infusion AM – Protects & Heals His Skin






It is designed to protect  skin from harmful free radicals; while firming and improving the look and texture for a more youthful appearance.  AM has incredible healing properties. Those with troubled skin will find it as a must have skin-care product.

War of the BB Brands!

 Who's Making a Difference.   What Brands are winning the war?


Want flawless coverage?  Using 2 foundations can achieve a smooth a fresh look. As an artist, I have always used two foundations to even out my skin.  The question is...what type of coverage do you want?  A BB cream is what you need to nourish your skin by providing a glow to your complexion.    A BB cream stands for Beauty Balm. By definition these foundations are light weight and packaged with antioxidants.  Although, the BB Cremes that are on the market are high priced with no level of anti-aging benefits.  I have passed on these BB cremes since I understand the ingredients  used on the market brands  provides nothing but ill-effects and wasted money..     Although the BB cream that I am crazy about is Bronzed Infusion by BlackBox Cosmetics.  First of all,  the product  ships in an air-tight canister to preserve the organic ingredients. They do not market their brand to the general public because BlackBox is in a different class of cosmetics. They are completely organic.  Bronzed Infusion fights free radicals while firming and improving the texture of the skin  for a more youthful appearance.  There is no need to buy two separate foundations here. Bronzed Infusion provides everything you want in a BB Creme, smooth consistency  easy to work with super skin tighteners!  See ingredients below order on BlackBox link




   Bronzed Infusion

  $32.95



Like Infusion AM, Bronzed Infusion fights free radicals while firming and improving the look and texture of your skin for a more youthful appearance. Our artists added just the right touch of color to give you a sun-kissed look. Our bronzing serum is a high content combination of advanced forms of Vitamin C, super anti-oxidants, and skin-tighteners. *(Contains 3 forms of Vitamin C... including the new advanced Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate.)


MSRP: $41.25
Web Discount Price: $32.95

Rising-Up Green! Salon & Spa July Issue

 Salon & Spa Issue Going Green & Organic- learn from the best leaders in the industry to transform your business to Green. This includes all beauty businesses.  Fasten your salon chair seat belt, sit back and dream about how  your  spa  can take your customers to new levels of  spa indulgence.  If your mouth isn't watering yet, it will be by the time you settle in on EYE ON GREEN Magazine's Mid-July Fresh Green Start Special Edition.



What do you need for a Green Spa?  Here are 3 items to think about…and they are not products, they are in fact, your CIA for the Growing GREEN Salon Business.

The Beauty, the Blogger & The Biz-Relationship Maker (BRM)



The Beauty 

First, equip your spa with Beauties. Hiring stylist that have their ear to the ground on chic, and can provide savvy selling skills as well. A classy stylist is the one who does the beauty, and books the next appoint before the client heads out the door. 


Stylists Need Incentives

Give you ur stylists incentive to work with you at your salon.  Okay, I  know this is tough to keep your stylists-  but if you are educated on working with people, this should be easy to hold on to them.  Look, Listen, and help your stylist with their needs.  If you know the salon down the street is hiring new stylists at a better rate, give YOUR stylists incentive to bring you new business. Perhaps, give them 75% on any new clients they bring to your door…the “house” keeps the remainder.   Empower your indoor Beauty’s to  bring ideas  to outdoor guests. Encourage your staff to customize your store front window,  pin-up  marketing displays amd update your salon to be the “Beauty Café” in town.  Listen and let your
stylists help you!

  The Blogger 

 A good beauty blogger is becoming a sought after salon commodity.  The best part is you will NOT have to hire one.  Most likely, assessing talent and writing about beauty comes easy for most that are in the beauty business. Please use your resources that you have “in house.”  A “blogger” is a good way to keep your EYE on Beauty and Business moving on the web.  These guru bloggers can easily send out emails on specials, help with online questions, update your website, and write about industry news and manage your e-store. (see below, best items for e-salons & spas) Why hire a Store Manager? Guess what…. clients are now booking appointments and buying products online, no manager or receptionist needed! Having an onsite beauty blogger is the best choice! Get a brilliant beauty blogger. One employee for three beautiful multitasking -  gets the job done!

  Le Biz - Relationship Maker

Sounds like high-end responsibility?  It isn’t!
A Biz-Relationship Maker is a person that sniffs out biz and forms friendships.
They are the “Beauty –Bloodhounds.” They know what makes the client happy before they walk in the door.  They offer them hospitality, kindness, they also wash hair and sweep the floor, display a Service with a smile, attitude. 
Do you think that you have to hire outside to get this type of  indoor service?  No way, this incredible business guide is here everyday.  Relax – The Biz-Relationship Maker is YOU!  Believe it or not…your clients and staff needs you to show your beautiful face at the salon, to motivate, excite and believe in your dreams!

Please see my new powerful GREEN comrades! They can help you with all your green salon needs.  I am so excited about my new friends for July EYE ON GREEN MAGAZINE. They have amazing advice to offer, excellent connections and items that can ignite business for your onsite salon and raising the GREEN Salon Online E-stores.

How long have you been in the GREEN Business?
I have over 20 years of Salon Experience in teaching technique, using and evaluating spa products and utilizing salon staff.  
I  have been with BlackBox from the beginning and have since been promoted to Sales Director in a short period of time.
I solely believe that BlackBox is the product that will change the salon industry.  There are so many products out there – when a salon  makes a “choice” to bring Organics in, choose a product that will seduce both men and women.  The products that every salon and spa needs are with BlackBox Cosmetics. 
What  is your product and why is it Different? 
 At BlackBox Cosmetics, we believe our age-reversal, skin-rejuvenating, acne treatment, sulfate/toxin free anti-oxidant, nutrient enriched shampoos & conditioners & non-toxic personal products/cosmeceuticals are in a category all by themselves. They are much higher in active compounds & nutrients, more potent, better for the environment, air & light protected, and are often considerably less expensive than some of the worst products on the market. Our packaging is unrivaled in beauty and functionality, while saving customers money with the ability to purchase refills. The products were created with both women AND men in mind. They are lightly scented with non-floral essential oils and packaged in cool black, fire red, lime green, sunset orange, frosty/midnight blue, and chrome quadrant bottles. We are confident you will agree, Cosmeceuticals by BlackBox Cosmetics are worlds apart from the competition.
Company Vision/ Motto: You can have anything in life, as along as you help others to pursue their dreams as well. I strongly believe in the “pay it forward” motto for building strong business relationships.
 EYE on Beauty reviews: Since, BlackBox came on the scene, I  have become steadily curious about their management team, company focus and goals. I was delighted to see that the company is encouraging beauty spas and salons to go Green.  But that's not all.. BlackBox has added more green (organic) products and strategic beauty players in their cosmetic arsenal.  I believe Mark Griffore  - will make BlackBox's plan explode into action. Mark has years of Salon experience thus having owned 2 salons himself. He is focused on product vs. client needs of delivering quality and results. He understands the needs of the green salon owner, and the products that will save their bottom line.  (ref EOG article) How Green Will Save Beauty's Bottom."   It is a pleasure for me to introduce you to Mark Griffore of BlackBox Cosmetics.   My readers will be hearing much more about BlackBox and their  mission of  purposeful intent for BlackBox Bursting the Salons Scene & Raising Green Products to new heights!

A Small Glimpse of Genius in A Big Green World

Introducing: Shelley Birnbaum - ReNew Botanicals Organic - Baltimore, MD

Company Name: ReNew Organic Skin Care
Products:  RENEW BOTANICALS Organic and Vegan Skin Care
Founder/CEO/Contact Person: Shelley Birnbaum
Address:  822 W. 36 Street Baltimore, MD 21211
Phone: 443-370-7276
 How long are you in the GREEN Business? Since 2006 (6 years)

What is your GREEN product or Service? I provide personalized facial treatments and hair removal services within an intimate, appointment-only eco-friendly studio in Baltimore, MD.  In addition all ReNew Botanical products are formulated with between 76% and 93% certified organic ingredients, sustainable harvested and fairly traded whenever possible.  No toxic or products harmful to humans, animals or the planet are every used. Products are packaged in recyclable glass.
New Products in the future? Body line including shower gels, body lotions and body butters as well as natural perfumes made with essential oils.

Company Vision:  "By encouraging the skin’s natural resources through non-invasive treatments, using products that have combined healthy organic ingredients with the latest scientific knowledge, and a healthy lifestyle, I know you can attain beautiful healthy skin that looks ageless. I believe in helping clients by equipping them with information to help themselves, and to achieve these results not only with my treatments, but with their own care at home too.”

More About Shelley -     I am a licensed esthetician practicing for over 21 years.  I opened the first eco-friendly organic spa in Baltimore in 2006 which won several awards. After closing in 2009 I opened my solo skin care practice being the first and only esthetician in Baltimore to make their own organic/vegan skincare product and customize them for their clients in a green environment. I started my journey in environmental awareness after attending the first Earth Day in New York City in 1970. After becoming ill with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia in the late 70s I switched to eating organic foods. When I became an esthetician in 1991 I started studying Aromatherapy and herbology. As I learned more about ingredients used in skin care and personal care products I was appalled at what was used and that led to developing my own skin care line.
EYE ON Beauty Review:  "Shelley is an accomplished expert on educating others on developing skincare for personal and practical use.  Shelley is the “go to gal” for advice on formulating skincare and bath products.  She contributes to high-level conversations on Salons Going Green (linkedIn) and many other sites that I am connected with on the going green venue.  She has an extensive line and a beautiful hands-on website. Easy to navigate and high-level brilliance, at the hands of a beauty making, green spa awareness educator.  I encourage a visit to her site and her blog.  Shelley's contributions are making a difference in the Big World of Green Beauty.”   ~ Terry Ruvo/CEO

 How long are you in the GREEN Business?25  years
 What is your GREEN product or Service?
All our skin care products are paraben free using natural essential oils of plants and flowers and not chemicals,our line is sold into recycle papers and the products are not tested on the animals,besides that the company vision below explains how we are different from big mass production cosmetics company
 New Products in the future? Nnatural carrot sun protector cream
Company Vision: We stand for tradition and happily occupy a niche. We are not a big industrial, mass-production cosmetics company.
 For almost 25 years we have measured our success by how different we are from the larger businesses that take the idea of beauty and corrupt it through mass marketing and aggressive cost cutting, and, ultimately, silly claims. The big companies do not know you, and, worse, do not care to know you. Rather, they employ the tactics of demographics, psycho-graphics and analytics  to reduce you to some abstract being, possessing certain needs and assets.

 On the other hand, Erbe has always been hands-on, making simple promises in the form of a highly personal and, so, meaningful message to our faithful clients. The product has always been inspired by our relationships.

 The majority of skin care lines include chemicals, which imitate the healing actions of the actual botanical extracts found in Erbe products. What we’ve found is that chemicals, however cheerily or scientifically expressed, achieve only superficial and temporary results. They offer illusions the famous hope in a bottle.
 
  Erbe approaches ingredients differently. Our products put you on the healing track. They interact with your skin; they work deeply because they are intended to cure actual dermatological problems. Our idea of a regime is few products, each intended to provide real and lasting benefits.
 
 Erbe has always been about the natural world and our relation to it. We come out of a real tradition: The Authentic Italian Beauty Tradition. We are the descendants of generations of men and women who understood the relationship between real beauty and true health and found in the Earth.
 
 Erbe is committed to raising the awareness of a largely ignored past. We have reclaimed the wisdom of our Italian monks, whose healing practices anticipated by centuries what we think of as modern today. They are our past, and we are their future.
 
 Toward that end, we reject the pathological pursuit of profit at the expense of the real. Our aims are as humble as our formulations; we want to help people enjoy lasting results from a few truly effective products rather than being caught up in a cycle of useless purchasing.
 
Mission/Motto:

At the Erbe Salon you can experience the lost feeling of the Italian Renaissance courts, Erbes ground floor is an aromatic refuge from the shopping frenzy outside, with the timeless feel of an Eerboristeriain an authentic Roman neighborhood. Classical music, Italian antiques and an array of elegant and simply packaged products recreate the same healing beauty setting the Italian women from the Italian Renaissance were accustomed to.
 
 An all natural skin-care salon that has been around for almost three decades for good reasons!
 Our Herbal facials are deep but gentle.
 A warm and serene setting is waiting for you at Erbe Spa where your skin will be treated with our aroma-Phytotherapy Brand specialized in active principles of organic botanical blends.
 
 Produced in Italy, our natural and paraben free product line is conceived and formulated to promote healing and to enhance beauty according the authentic Italian beauty culture dated back the glorious history period of the Italian Renaissance.

 
 Our spa: All Erbe facials are designed to provide long lasting care for the skin, to balance, heal and purify, providing nutrients and emollients essential for the maintenance of beautiful and glowing younger skin.
 
For Bookings call us at 212-966-1445 and ask the experts:
They will gladly come up with the best solution for your beauty inquiries, suggesting you what type of treatments offered at the Erbe spa better tackle your actual dermatological problem.

EYE on Beauty Review:  If you are planning a trip to NYC, arrange a Spa Day at Erbe. I am already in Love with Erbe.  With thoughts of seeing and feeling the difference of fine Italian beauty traditions already has me seduced!  You must get UP CLOSE and Personal with Erbe, they are a full-service salon.  "Fill your heart with Erbe to the brim in  mind & body.  Learn lessons from  the greatest herbalist and spa leaders at Erbe Spa   Verde de Amore!"  ~Terry Ruvo CEO

Developed to exceed Customers Expectations,  at a price to impress and  fit the needs of salon clientle & Green Spas all Over

sssh - It's Silk Virgin - don't keep it a secret!  It's Free to become and EYE ON GREEN Affiliate - see link
Silk Virgin

The skin is the biggest and most important organ in your body, serving many functions, one of which is excretion of toxic substances. Keeping your skin clean will improve its function and appearance. Is the regular, every day cleaning of your skin with soap and water enough? Research shows that, in addition to every day cleansing it is very important to exfoliate.
What is exfoliation of the skin? This is a process of removing of the dead skin and impurities from the pores, also called deep cleansing of the skin.
Exfoliating of your face and body regularly, at least once a week is very important. Exfoliated skin breaths better, functions better and looks better. After the exfoliation your skin becomes more easily penetrated, the skin products you use more effective.

Another important question is, what kind of exfoliating product should you use? You need an exfoliating product that provides total exfoliating results and it is natural. Finding that product could be a challenge.
Most of the exfoliating products on the market provide only abrasive action and are not really exfoliating the skin. Some of them even claim to be all natural. Is it possible an exfoliating cream or scrub to be all natural?Of course no. More or less they all contain chemicals and preservatives.
Usually it is better to exfoliate with exfoliating glove or mitten. But again, what they are made of, how they work? Silk Virgin

And now the good news, the search is over. We have for you the exfoliating product you need.

A New Style 4 Beauty



Hair Today  or Gone Tomorrow

When a client comes to you and says – “ I  need a change”  What is your answer?  Do you “Wow” them with something new, or do you use the same approach to please.  When coming to a fork in the road, which way will you go? The same path that you know is safe and easy…or will you take the path that is hard and unknown.  Change will happen, no matter which path you take.  Change is hard for many, especially when you talk about business.  This is why business and people choose not to change.  Then they question – “Why is my business yielding the same results?”  I can tell you of my area in NJ – it is a battle to keep salons and spas running.  Yesterday, on my way to a neighborhood salon, I  noticed, the lights were out inside.   On my way in, clients were being pampered in the dark…strange.  As I waited to get my turn for a cut, I over heard chat about the owner conserving energy…their monthly rent was way overdue. Oh my goodness… I couldn’t believe my ears. I was so surprised… my hair curled…and my hair is naturally pin-straight.  All kidding aside, I wondered how long this salon will stay in business.  My go-to salon has been here for 25 years.   As I observed more, the salon was up to their go-go-boots in product.   On my way out, I asked to speak to the salon owner with  hopes to give some pointers on how to clean house and maybe salvage some business. The owner was no where to be found.  Of course, I knew it was too late.  I was actually depressed for the salon owner. Loosing your business is like loosing your loved one, a piece of your heart. If  I was only here six months ago, I would have said – "Don’t be attached to the same way of running your business like a routine…, it will only get harder.  Don’t be afraid of change, and welcome your passion of  chic  to the unknown. Don’t let fear blind your business to change."   Create your new style for business....I know where the new seeds are being planted....First, take the path to Green. Follow here.

Change is here – and the Bardot is back!
