In this episode of the Business of Aesthetics podcast, host Michael Walker sits down with Dominique Waples Truffle, an accomplished practice owner who successfully grew her business from a single location to a thriving multi-location operation with over 1,200 membership patients. Together, they discuss "Scaling Smart, From One Location to a Thriving Membership Model."

Dominique shares the biggest challenges she faced during her expansion, particularly the "terrifying" mental block of letting go of control when moving from one to two locations. She emphasizes the importance of intentional systems, processes, and a strong culture centered on employee experience to maintain the personal touch that patients love. Dominique also provides insight into her successful membership model, explaining how it creates predictable revenue for the practice and a sense of belonging for patients.

For any aesthetics professional looking to expand their practice, this episode offers an invaluable guide to achieving sustainable growth through a focus on team empowerment, culture, and a smart, scalable business model.
