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.
