S2E70 I Stopped Running My Salon the Same Way in Q4 and it Changed EVERYTHING

If Q4 is already one of the busiest times of the year in your salon or spa, why in the heck do we keep preparing for it by adding MORE?More hours. More clients. More promotions. More retail. More stuff for the team to remember. More freaking everything.In this episode, I’m breaking down what I changed in my own salon last Q4 that helped us make great money without making December feel like it completely kicked our ass.We’re talking about temporarily changing how you use your service menu, simplifying add-ons and retail, cutting promotions and discounts during your busiest weeks, creating a Q4 “kill list,” deciding your squeeze-in boundaries before clients start asking, and even letting your team choose a few services they would rather not perform during those crazy weeks.None of this is about doing less just for the sake of doing less. It’s about being way more strategic with the demand you already know is coming.And because I know you’re probably going to listen and think, “Okay, but how do I actually do this in MY business?” we also created a free Q4 Profit Checklist that walks you through the whole thing.Grab the checklist here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-3QQ7fnwP_63zXeAprCPb6jdWpaZXl5PFelsarw5xvA/copy or head to thebeautybizagency.com and find it under our free resources.Resources & Links:✨ Free Resources & Coaching Options: www.thebeautybizagency.com📱 Follow us on Instagram, Facebook & YouTube @thebeautybizagency📱Follow us on TikTok @beautybizmentors📩 Email: [email protected]
