Feeling the pressure of a shifting economy with more client cancellations and stretched-out appointments, many stylists have been tempted to lean on discounts and loyalty programs to keep their chair full. Are these the right strategies to be using, or are they just surface-level solutions? Today, I break it all down and work the math to show how using these types of things really play out for your business in the long-run.

I hope this episode arms you with the perspective and knowledge to make the right decision, so you can determine if the financial impact of offering these incentives makes sense for you, or if it will just lead to you working hard with a full chair and making less money!
