Ok. Here I am again. This time, weary and battle scared. I'm going to share some of my experience. I LOVE my Industry! I enjoy and thrive in it. The good thing about corporate is the security blanket it provides. However, somewhere down the line I became numb. It's the second time it happens, but this time I was able to identify it. I can say I learned how to appreciate our industry more and embrace it. So with so much experience in salon management and team building, not to mentioned sales tracking. I have pulled together the most comprehensive workshops for modern salon management. The difference is that there are so many tools and gadgets to use to make the jobs easier today. When I was starting none of these where available. So I did it the old fashion way, pen and paper. Long gone.. are the days when the appointment book was also the accounting log, phone book, service record and payroll data. LOL. I remember when being a hairdresser meant easy money, now you have to run a single chair like a business. I have coached many stylists into a profitable three day a week job. The hardest part has been to get them to further develop or blossom their business by developing others. Why we do this to ourselves, That's material for another posting. For now start taking notes. How is your business running? When was the last time you did anything for team building? What is payroll costing you? what trainings are needed to continue developing? Who are the leaders in your team? Are you placing each player in the correct area? How long ago did you take a training to motivate YOU!Then sit through one of my classes and discuss the business. First we identify strengths then we figure out the rest. www.detrasdelasilla.com
