#453 - Gen-Z Tell All…

There is so much chatter in our industry about Gen Z stylists being lazy, unmotivated, and difficult to manage, and I've talked about this before on the podcast. I wanted to get to the actual root of that conversation though, so I did something I've never done before. I put out a survey exclusively to Gen Z stylists, screened every single respondent to make sure the data was real, and got over 300 responses back!  What came back completely surprised me in the best way. The stereotypes don't hold up. And more importantly, what this generation actually wants from a salon is not what most owners think it is. In this episode I'm sharing everything: what they look for when choosing a salon, what would make them stay for ten or more years, how they feel about compensation, what their ideal schedule actually looks like, and some direct quotes that every salon owner needs to hear. If you want to attract and keep the next generation of stylists, this is one episode you can't afford to skip.  Get up to $200 off Square hardware when you sign up at square.com/go/thriver! #squarepod #sponsored All the episodes of After The Last Client are now available!
