049: Charms, Chains & Chasing Dreams with Taylor from Forever Chains Permanent Jewelry

In today's episode, I’m chatting with Taylor from Forever Chains! A fellow podcaster and permanent jewelry queen from Portland jumped all in back in early 2022. After spotting permanent jewelry on Instagram and realizing no one in her area was doing it, she knew she had to bring the sparkle to her city.Taylor started out in a friend’s salon and quickly learned all the dos and don’ts the hard way (yes, she ordered all the wrong stuff, haven’t we all?). Fast-forward to today, and she’s thriving in her own Portland storefront!We dive into how she’s keeping things fresh in her business, from launching a charm bar (which is booming, by the way!) and earlobe piercings to simplifying her pricing—because, let’s be real, a confused customer doesn’t buy!And the big leap? Taylor left her full-time dental assistant job in January 2024 and tripled her sales after going full-time with her permanent jewelry biz! We get into what that transition looked like, how she pays her team, and how she’s been laser-focused this year on knowing her numbers and leveling up.Oh, and she started her own podcast, too (you’ll want to subscribe)! We talk trends from events like The Magic Show in Vegas, why charm bars are definitely here to stay, and how she handles competition popping up in her area. Her approach? Stay in your lane, build your vibe, and the right people will find you.We also chat about training, constantly evolving, and how investing in the right tools and education sets the stage for growth.
