Feeling Encouraged

Felt a little overwhelmed and frustrated yesterday - trying to finish my second book, "Get More Clients, Make More Money, FAST!" It's almost there, but not quite, could use some admin. help! I spoke to my protege` Shante` at http://www.runwaystudios.com/ in Hyattsville, MD - she sounded very upbeat - she has some new energy in her team and her salon is considering adding a few 'spa type' services. Sounds like the team and the clients are really excited! We're also coordinating a photo shoot for me to get a new headshot and for her to shoot some models. Keston Duke http://www.kestonduke.com/ is doing the photos, but we still need a good, reasonably priced make up artist!

Also, spoke to Kim Connell at Salon Obsessions in Silver Spring, MD www.myspace.com/SalonObsessions (she does some 'killer' custom wigs - check it out!). She's looking to bring on new staff and revamp their salon. She was kinda down. I suggested she check out my website http://www.beautysuperstars.com/ and also listen to the Coaching Call we just had on Monday - you can call in for FREE (long distance charges may apply)
Anyway, I talked to her this morning and she is a NEW person, way too excited, set up a website on http://www.blackstylists.com/ and has a direction in mind for the salon! This is what keeps me going - I really do need the feedback! Especially when I'm wondering, am I giving too much, being too much of a perfectionist or trying to do too much myself, when I need to delegate. We talked about my pricing and different strategies to let more stylists know, there is a place you can come for answers to the challenges that we face. Beauty SuperStars.com is dedicated to helping stylists to 'Get More Clients and Make More Money!' And I'm just so encouraged by the positive impact that we're having so early on!

Kim also mentioned the topic of fear, we will have to have a conversation or Coaching Call on that.

Also, I’m excited our first "Legends and Leaders" Interview Call is Monday, March 24th at 7:30 pm EST and our first special guest is none other than, Floyd Kenyatta - Industry Legend and Global Ambassador for John Paul Mitchell! I can’t wait!!! Please plan to join us - just sign up for Club SuperStar - it’s FREE http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LkJlYXV0eVN1cGVyU3RhcnMuY29t

Into the 21st Century!

Ready or not, here I come, into the 21st Century! This is my first writing on my blog! I just found out what a blog is :)

I’m wanting hairstylists to use all this technology to help them grow their businesses and I am still learning myself - thanks to hairstylist, Belinda at POB Salon and photographer, Keston Duke, I’ve learned a LOT more in the just the last few days. Thanks, guys! I just wrote my first book "Secrets of the Millionaire Stylists" Your Ultimate Guide to Building a Thriving Clientele and recently launched www.BeautySuperStars.com , dedicated to helping stylists get more clients and make more money and we have a monthly club that offers Coaching Calls and Interview Calls and our last call was on "What makes you so special?" Positioning yourself and branding yourself so that you stand out from the crowd! We shared a lot of great info and then the call shifted to talking about websites and branding yourself online and it turned into quite a class on technology and how to use it to market yourself and your business. It’s recorded, if you want to listen - just call 641-715-3470, passcode 267132. Anyway, most of us on the call need the reeaalllly EASY version of how to use all this technology, so Keston is going to come back on April 14th and do an entire call that’s just for hairstylists using technology to market and grow their businesses - it should be great! Guess I better get back to writing the second book I’m working on.
