There is usually a product that you or your stylists look to use or sell in your salon, thus you are compelled/ required to do business with the supplier that has rights to sell it in the city your salon resides. Thus most salon + supplier partnerships are not consciously formed on merit but rather by default. As a salon owner for 19 years I have changed greatly from my early days of how I chose a supplier. In the beginning I was convinced I needed to sell wellknown brands to attract and retain the guests my salon needed to survive. I was convinced if I had the product they recognized and trusted that I would build my own brand and reputation with its presence. I partnered with several suppliers making sure I could access a variety of well-known hair care products. I have to admit it worked but to a limited degree. I soon ended up being broadsided by big business competing with my salon through diversion. The salon products we sold were also being sold at many drugstores and supermarkets, not to mention online! Clients were often buying from them after we gave them the recommendation and education on how to use it. Very frustrating. By this point I had developed a strong relationship with a major supplier and was starting to design a different portfolio of what we used and sold in our salon. My team was skilled and educated and we realized the guests trusted us and respected what we recommended. This was a major turning point for my salon and I. This supplier had always set the standard for offering the best education in salon business practice and providing welltrained Sales consultants to support my business. Raylon (now Art of Business) was genuinely invested in creating a relationship and partnering with me to help grow my salon. This was a key component in my salon success because, when it comes down to it: You could buy all the products in the world and use the best color line available, but if your business is not managed well, none of this matters. With their help, I went on to more heavily invest in my salon business education, which put my salon on the fast track to success. I came to realize that I had a choice whom I chose to purchase from and it should not always be based on what product I buy, but instead what benefits were attached to that product. I also realized a good business model with a skilled team can sell any product they believe in, even if it is not nationally known. My decisions have changed greatly in 19 years. I now choose to partner with a supplier first and a brand second. I also greatly value a motivated sales consultant that is accessible, educated, and listens and responds promptly. The consultant should contribute to salon and staff support through assistance in marketing, promotions, staff development and participates in salon events (which is only possible if the sales consultant is enabled and empowered by their employer). On a personal level, I want to be valued as a consumer. I want to be recognized as an individual with a face and a name, not a number and a $$ sign. I want a relationship that is built on trust and respect that feels like a family or a friendship. Maybe it’s unconventional but in an industry of high touch and personal service it seems only fitting! Fortunately, I am blessed to have found this relationship with the Art of Business family, from my business consultant Sophia, Josh, Howard and the whole Hafetz family, and every employee from top to bottom. My team and I have benefited greatly from this relationship and continue to grow and prosper as a result. Choose wisely who and what you invest in; it’s not just about a tube of color or a bottle of shampoo… I am looking for many things from my suppliers: • • • • • • • accessibility to quality products product knowledge training technical education loyalty rewards and deals on quantity purchasing orders processed quickly affordable shipping swift turnaround time 855.721.5250 www.artofbusiness.com info@artofbusiness.com Deals Valid 07/01/16-08/31/16.

There are a handful of ways to effectively measure retail sales in a salon. The leading 3 methods are: 1 Retail to Service % 2 Dollars per client average 3 Pieces per client average While none of these are wrong, our preferred method to use when working with your team is the Piece per Client (PPC) method. There are several reasons for this, but the most notable one is that it’s easier for your stylists to understand. For example, if a stylist’s goal is .5 PPC, they know that one out of two clients need to buy a product. Or, if they see that they have 8 clients on a given day, they know 8 July/August 2016 that they must sell at least 4 products that day. This simplifies things vs having to do calculations related to the other methods. Other benefits of PPC include that it accounts for the fact that you may have products at different price points and stylists at different service prices. It nullifies that argument that having a high ticket and upselling a service hurts a stylist’s retail stats, which does occur when using the Retail to Service calculation method. For goals using the PPC method, we suggest a range .25ppc-1ppc depending on the level of the stylist. As an average for a salon, if you can get over .5 ppc, you are in pretty good shape. Like any goal, it’s important to track this consistently and make it part of the rhythm of your business. As I mentioned before, stylists should look at their book at the beginning of the day, and based on their number of clients that day, set a goal for themselves for number of products they need to sell.

If you have a written business plan, revisit it regularly to make adjustments. Consider incorporating new ideas gleaned from attending a seminar or from working with an advisor. 3 Get serious about the value of your time; after all, you are in the business of selling time! Block out a few hours weekly to work ON your business, not IN your business. 4 Keep your salon’s system procedures in writing to maintain consistency. Systems could include: hiring/firing, front desk, customer service, back bar, etc. Refine them as needed. 12 July/August 2016 5 6 7 8 Learn to delegate. Figure out what you do that turns dollars, then delegate and involve your team to develop systems and strategies that will produce results. Maximize all social media opportunities. Incorporate your salon’s “critical growth factors” into the design of your marketing plan. A well thought out promotion can increase your average salon ticket price. Your employees are your most valuable assets. Spend time individually with each one of them to develop their financial growth plan. Monitor their critical growth factors and together design a realistic and achievable plan that will increase their average ticket, rebooking skills, etc. 9 10 Maximize distributor resources. Ask your Art of Business Salon Business Specialist to recommend expert help in any area of your business where you’re underperforming. Implementation is the key to the success of any plan. It takes discipline or a behavior change to make this happen, but you will reap the rewards financially and emotionally when properly executed.

But they are really in the people business,” Jay Williams says. “And once you understand what business you are in, everything else becomes crystal clear. W “ illiams recently worked with Dr. Lewis Losoncy (“Dr. Lew”) to develop Dr. Lew’s book, On Becoming a Psy-Cosmetologist, into a powerful educational seminar for stylists and owners. As the global education director for Psy-Cosmetology, Williams, runs four-hour training sessions for individual salons to multi-location chains all over the country. After three decades with Matrix, Dr. Lew is currently the motivational psychologist with DevaCurl. Written more than 30 years ago, the book was born out of an “ah-ha” moment that Dr. Lew, at the time a practicing psychologist, had with a patient who didn’t follow his advice. “It turns out her hairdresser didn’t agree with me, and she trusted her hairdresser more!” And so, knowing very little about the beauty industry, Dr. Lew set out to find out what was so special about the client/cosmetologist relationship. What he discovered still holds true today. “The cosmetologist sees the client on a regular, ongoing basis, and before every major life event,” says Dr. Lew. Furthermore, he says, the very basis of the relationship revolves around the most personal of actions: physical touch. Only a few professions include this “license to touch,” and most are not seen as often nor have such high emotional stakes. Williams is fond of asking Psy-Cosmetology participants the following question: “Would you rather have a loyal client or a satisfied one?” “The most common response is ‘satisfied,’ stylists believe if a client is satisfied, they will be loyal,” explains Williams, who follows up that question with another one: “Would you rather have a loyal or satisfied boyfriend/husband?” Inevitably, the second question gets a laugh and a response of, ‘Loyal, of course!’ “Then I explain that a satisfied client is satisfied only until someone else satisfies them more,” Williams says. “A loyal client offers ‘unconditional love’ and will stay with you even if she isn’t satisfied.” “Relationships are built on both character and competence,” says Williams. ”But when we look at client retention, it turns out that most clients who leave a stylist do so for non-technical reasons.” So giving a good haircut, a perfect blow-out or shimmering color is great, but clients want so much more than technical skills from a stylist. According to both Williams and Dr. Lew, most cosmetology schools are in a precarious position, as curriculum is really designed to help budding stylists pass exams. “But where is the people-skills training?” asks Williams. This lack of focus on the psychological component can lead to emotional burnout. And that “fatigue” is always going to negatively impact the client relationship. 16 July/August 2016 In a Psy-Cosmetology training session, Jay Williams shows stylists and owners how to build client relationships based on both character and competence. “The first step is always to develop self-awareness of your own character,” says Williams. “Do you trust yourself? Your own selfawareness can be the biggest disconnect in the client’s experience.” In his book, Dr. Lew outlines the Psy-Cosmetologist’s Seven Sources of Personal Motivation: 1.Love Life 2.Be Driven From Within 3. Change People’s Lives 4.Be Open to Grow 5. Highlight Your Strengths 6.Get Over Stuff Quickly 7.Find a Way In the workshops, Williams leads participants through these steps to create new thinking and new behavior. “Our participants go through a personal transformation, which changes the whole way they look at the profession.” That’s certainly been the case for stylist Christy Nelson of Alejandro’s Salon and Spa in Kearny, Nebraska. Nelson has been a devotee of Psy-Cosmetology since the early days of her 32-year career. “It just totally changed my life. I am more empathetic towards stylists and my clients,” she says. “We’re not just hairdressers—that’s such a small part of our jobs. It’s about really loving your clients. And the people you have trouble loving—they’re the ones who need it the most.” We carry Buy 2 Argan Oil Touch of Tan Moisturizer 18 oz.

IMPROVE YOUR YOUR SALON MARKETING AND GET FOUND Nothing Beats a Great First Impression BY E llen T hompson Not so long ago, the first opportunity you had to make a first impression on customers was when they walked in the door. Now, customers go online and search for salons in their towns, browse reviews and rating sites, like Yelp, and visit salon websites before deciding who to call. Simply put, if they don’t like what they see, the phone doesn’t ring. If you haven’t updated your website in 3 years, chances are you aren’t putting your best foot forward. With limited time ad so many ways to market your salon, it’s often hard to know where to start. However, if your website is outdated or not mobile friendly, don’t invest in any other marketing until you fix it. Your website is the hub of your online presence and the digital gateway to your business. If it’s the weakest link, it will negatively impact the effectiveness of other marketing initiatives.
