Alright, this episode is a little different—completely unscripted, unfiltered, and straight from my screenshot folder. I’m diving into some major wins from my clients, breaking down exactly what’s working for them, and showing you how you can apply the same strategies to start seeing real results in your own beauty business.

But first, a little life update…
I bought a new car—without getting a loan (and why that was so important to me).
The bowling business is thriving, but we’re realizing the power of hiring smart and fixing team gaps.
We hit $430K in revenue in just 11 weeks, even in what’s normally our slowest month!
And yes, I’ve somehow become a cocktail recipe creator on the side (stay tuned for the Sweet Caroline special 🍸).

What You’ll Get in This Episode:

-The mindset shifts that changed EVERYTHING—going from "just showing up" to actually building a business.
- How my clients track their numbers so they’re never left wondering where the money’s going.
- The marketing mistake 99% of beauty business owners make (hint: posting more isn’t the answer).
- How to handle DMs & inquiries so you're not just getting ghosted.
- The exact follow-up process that took one client from 40 Google reviews to 140!
- The 5S storytelling formula that makes your content 10x more powerful (without spamming before & afters).

Biggest Takeaways:

• If you're not tracking your numbers, you're running a hobby, not a business.
• Your fortune is in the follow-up—nurturing your clients = long-term success.
• Posting more isn't the key to success. Your messaging needs to actually convert.
• Charge what you're worth and stop second-guessing your pricing.
• Marketing doesn’t have to feel draining—it should be fun, aligned, and work for YOU.
