Mini Moment #19: The Client Retention Conversation You Need to Hear – with Sara Briscoe

Retention. It is one of those words that gets thrown around a lot in this industry, usually tied to numbers, rebooking rates and revenue. But Sara Briscoe from Roca Verde has a different way of looking at it, and once you hear it this way, you will not be able to unhear it.Because retention is not just good for your bottom line. It is good for your nervous system. A column full of familiar faces means less anxiety, less tap dancing to impress someone new, and more of the kind of days that remind you why you love this job. That is what is in it for your team. And that is exactly the conversation most salon owners are not having.In this Mini Moment, Sara breaks down the why behind retention, the how behind building it, and why teaching your team to care about it starts with making it personal.What we coverWhy retention is an emotional conversation as much as a financial oneThe real cost of a column full of new clients on your adrenals and your confidenceHow to teach your team the why so they actually careThe power of a consistent consultation and giving clients a hair journeySocial media as a retention tool, not just a marketing oneWhy a calm familiar column is one of the greatest gifts you can give your teamWhen you and your team understand what retention actually does for you and them, everything shifts.Mentioned in this episode:💛 A Limited Time Offer From Our Amazing Sponsor, Timely 💛➡ Timely is the easy to use booking and payments system that puts salon owners in control of the whole client experience from the first booking to final payment.➡ Salon Rising listeners get a 14 day free trial plus 50% off their first 3 months.➡ And until August 1st, when you activate with Payments, you'll also get a free Touchscreen terminal, worth $349 + GST.Use the code SALONRISING at checkout or click the link below to get started.
