Delegation is a vital skill for salon owners and there's a limit to what you can achieve on your own. Having no team is not an excuse!! In this episode we unpack some of the reasons why you might be resistant to delegation.

In previous broadcasts, I've talked to you about how to motivate your team and recruit the best people to help grow your business. But this video will be different.  I'll talk more about how we can shift the focus and help you stay motivated. Motivation is one of the key aspects of succeeding in any kind of business. However, there may be instances that you may find it hard staying motivated. As a business owner it's only normal for you to face different challenges on a daily basis. This makes it even harder to stay energised and motivated. We've all had that experience where we lose focus due to the obstacles we're facing. Remember how it used to be? Do you remember all that energy you had when you were starting out?  That feeling of restlessness and excitement all packed in one?  And how you felt a surge of motivation going through you as if you're never going to get demotivated. In the beginning, it's only natural for you to be focused on growing your business. You were able to accomplish a lot of things a

I spend most of my time traveling and consulting with salon owners. Most of these clients ask for good,  profitable financial strategies. In this video, I will talk about tiered pricing and how you should leverage this tool to get better profits, give more value to your customers and provide your employees with a better way to build clientele. Most salon owners don't see the value in tiered pricing.  To be blunt, this is why some of these businesses fail. You have to remember that a big part of running the business you deserve, is generating the profits you deserve. You have to consistently revisit your pricing structure.  And see if you're leaving money on the table.  While you create an environment where employees strive for something more. Tiered pricing isn't just about gaining the profits your business deserves. It is also about being able to carefully provide recognition to your employees who are excelling. You are also able to provide loyal employees with incentives that will continue to motivate them

We get the same message again and again.  Know your "one thing".  Focus, and stay focused.  Be determined.  When everyone else makes 10 calls, make 20.  Stay the course.  Commit fully and never give up. But surely, there has to come a time when you question whether your "one thing" is the right thing?  Being persistent and taking strong consistent action is great - but what if you're pushing hard in the WRONG direction?  Just HOW persistent do you have to be before you finally wash your hands and walk away?  Here are my thoughts.  As always, I'd love to hear yours too.

I do a LOT of non-fiction reading.  I love reading the biographies of entrepreneurs and leaders.  And naturally you start to see recurring themes in their message.  One very subtle theme that crops up again and again is how the super-successful feel fulfilled. It seems that at some stage in their career, it isn't enough to make more and more money or gain growing market share.  Almost without exception there comes a time when the most fulfilling thing an entrepreneur can do is to start giving back.  Buffett, Gates, Branson - they all plough millions or even billions back into good causes.  It brings a renewed sense of purpose.  It helps contribute to your "why".

You have invested everything in your business.  Time, energy, money.  What can possibly go wrong?

What I work on goal setting with my clients my aim is to improve their relationship with themselves. It's not about hitting the gym, meditation or yoga. I'm talking about scheduling some time to kick back and to do stuff that you actually like. Or how about scheduling some time with no agenda? What do you think it will look like having an hour or two in your calendar to waste? Contrary to what you think, it's not really a wasted time. It's your time to improve your relationship with yourself. And it's a beautiful investment! Believe me, this has transformed my business.

I can help you in overcoming procrastination and getting more things done. Are you: 1. An expert at putting off and delaying things? 2. Brilliant at doing the fun stuff first?  But leaving no motivation and energy for the things you're supposed to do? 3. Running your life in a panic mode for a lot of the time? A big part of the business is getting the right stuff done. You CAN get the right stuff done without working right up to a deadline in a very stressful way.  And you know that feels so much better! Thing is, a lot of us are our own enemies. We're procrastinators!! We put things off and then end up with a huge rush of tasks when it comes to the deadline. These tips that I have are based on my very own experiences as a big procrastinator. I have worked really hard to make sure that I'm performing at a level of high-productivity.  Basically I have had to deal with my procrastination in a very effective way! 1. Break things down - there may be times that you feel overwhelmed.  When you have so much to do in
