EP52 You Don't Need to Go Viral, You Need to Be Consistent

Listen Later

 In this episode, we're breaking down why chasing viral moments is sabotaging your business and why steady, consistent work is actually your secret weapon.

What you'll learn:

  • Why makeup artists need to stay aware of trends but shouldn't chase viral content
  • The dangerous mindset that viral moments equal business success
  • Why going viral isn't a business strategy (and what happens when you're not prepared for it)
  • The reality of how makeup artists actually build careers - slowly, through consistent work
  • My personal story: How a low-paying Velour Beauty job became a 10-year relationship with work in Sephora stores internationally
  • Why being "second or third choice" is a legitimate business strategy, not something to be ashamed of
  • How consistency in posting, practicing, and showing up builds trust with potential clients
  • The multidimensional approach your portfolio needs in today's social media world
  • Common posting mistakes that make you look unprofessional (blurry photos, stray hairs, dirty lenses)
  • Why showing up 100% for unpaid/unglamorous work builds your reputation and referral rate

    • Key takeaway: Viral moments come and go. Steady work builds careers. Being reliable, available, and professional creates opportunities you never saw coming.
