Send us Fan Mail Besties, we’re celebrating one year of the podcast this October 🎉 and I want to give back to you! I’ve teamed up with Divinely Me Diaries to give away two of their gorgeous $59.95 diaries. To enter: leave a 5-star review on Spotify, share the podcast to your stories, and tag us (make sure your account is public so we can see it). That’s it, you’re in! I can’t wait to see who’s been listening and celebrate this milestone with you 💕 Besties… buckle up 💅 it’s not another “million-dollar salon” pep talk. This week I’m joined by the unapologetic queen herself, Emelly Simons, and we’re talking about how to host salon events that actually make money, build community, and set you apart (minus the fake hype or BS coaching). In this episode we’re diving into: 💅 Why events are your secret weapon for instant cashflow and long-term client loyalty 💅 How to fill your events (and why group texts won’t cut it - personal invites only) 💅 The biggest mistakes salon owners make when planning events 💅 Why you should always charge for your events (no more “freebies” that drain your energy) 💅 The power of being your full, unfiltered self in business and why people told us to tone it down (spoiler: we didn’t) This chat is honest, hilarious, and a little controversial. We’re calling out the culty side of the beauty industry, breaking up with toxic positivity, and reminding you that your version of success matters most. If you’ve ever wanted to build community, inject fast cash into your salon, or just feel less alone in the chaos.. this one’s for you. 🎧 Tune in for a raw, no-filter convo that’ll have you rethinking what’s possible for your business (and maybe your next event).
