Pretty much everyone I talk to in our industry is struggling in one way or another. It's not an easy time and for most of us, some if not a lot of clients don't really feel it's safe to come in for lashes right now. We have some good news for you. Brittani Strong of SoCal Beauty has come with an amazing idea to help your clients get the lashes they love and make you money: Personalize strip lashes that you create for them. In this episode, we talk to Brittani about how she's dealt with the California shut down (now 22 weeks)and how she was able to pivot in a way that would take care of her team as well as her clients. We know you will be inspired when you hear Brittani's story and hope you look into her new product line as it's something that could help you make more money and take care of your clients who don't want to come into your business.

You don’t need a degree in math to take this course…we promise we’ll keep it simple. THE VIRTUAL LASHCONFERENCE IS HERE - November 15-16, 2020 2020 has been the most difficult year for all of us business owners. Live lash events have been canceled for the year, and we didn't want to cancel LashCon too...we felt people need this event more than ever. We are moving LashCon into the interactive virtual world. We have asked a collection of amazing business coaches, marketing experts, social media pros, salons owners and more to come share their best tips to help you grow your business. This event won't be like most webinars where you just want a series of videos. We have a phone app you will download before the conference. With this app, you'll be able to connect with other lash artists, watch speakers, go to live Q&As, play games, win prizes, and go to the virtual sponsor room where you can interact with your favorite lash brands. If you want to give your business a boost heading into 2021, this is the conference to sign up for this year. To sign up go to www.thelashconference.com.
