The Education Gap That’s Costing Aesthetic Practices Money (Part 1)

from Aesthetically Speaking: Plastic Surgery & Med Spa Marketing presented by Nextech · host Nextech

Education might not be the flashiest topic in aesthetics, but as Robin and AmSpa’s Kirstie Jackson explain, it’s one of the biggest factors behind a successful practice. They talk about the real gaps they see in staff training, from hiring the right people to building onboarding systems that actually work.Hear why education can’t be a one-and-done activity in an industry that’s constantly evolving, and how practices can create better training processes, invest in their teams, and avoid the costly mistakes that happen when learning gets pushed aside. There was so much great insight here that we had to split it into two episodes. Stay tuned for Part 2 with Kirstie, where the focus shifts to patient education and setting both teams and patients up for success.About Kirstie JacksonKirstie Jackson is the director of education at the American Med Spa Association (AmSpa).
