Do you have a team? Are you booth renting? Do you pay commission? Are you thinking of hiring other lash artists at some point? If you have staff...how's it working out for you? If you're like most salon owners I know, it's can be quite difficult to keep your business running smoothly, to be a strong leader, and to keep your business profitable.No one is born knowing how to run a salon, and if you are like many lash artists I know, you probably just copied the salon you once worked for or worse (if you never worked for a salon) just make it all up as you go. If you want to have a strong and successful salon, you need to have a solid business system that really takes care of your staff. Winging it will only end up in a lot of pain and suffering. If you've been listening to our podcast, you know we're huge fans of Team-Based Pay or what I think is more accurate...Team-Based Culture. In today's episode, we have the head of education from Strategies, Michael Yost, joins us to talk about this amazing salon business system. Michael spoke at LashCon last year, and we want to share his talk to give you a preview of the kind of presentations you'll get at the VIRTUAL LashConference this November 15-16, 2020. If you have staff or if you ever want to hire staff, you seriously need to consider using the Team-Based Culture business model. In today's episode, you'll get a good overview of what this system and how it can help you build the business of your dreams. We'll be back next week with two more LashCon preview episodes. If you like what you hear today, you'll want to sign up and join us on November 15-16, 2020! ANNOUNCEMENTS:THE VIRTUAL LASHCONFERENCE - November 15-16, 2020 We're on a mission here at The VIRTUAL LashConference (LashCon) to make every lash artist profitable and professional. ⁣⁣First, we want to help lash artists become profitable. There are so many lash artists just squeaking out a living. We know we can all do better. Second, we want to see lash artists like you be more professional and as a result more respected. ⁣We want to equip lash artists with the best information regarding lashes, adhesives, techniques, and customer service. The better educated we are, the more confident we'll be and the more respected we'll be. ⁣⁣With these two ideas in mind, we are working hard to make sure The VIRTUAL LashConference helps you to become more profitable and professional. We have invited world-class speakers (many from outside the lash industry) to come and share their wisdom with us. ⁣⁣If you want to be profitable and professional, sign up for the con today. Tickets are currently $209.⁣We also have a payment plan where you only need to pay 50% now. ⁣⁣Go to www.thelashconference.com to sign up today!GUEST ANNOUNCER LASCAST OPENING SCRIPTHere is our script that you can use to record the opening to our show:"Hi I’m (name) and I work at (name of biz) in (city, state) and I’m today’s guest announcer.
