Julie’s QUICK TIP Takeaways 

The Importance of an Onboarding Plan: When bringing on a new manager or leadership team member, having a structured onboarding plan is crucial. It sets the tone for their experience and ensures they feel supported and confident in their role, which can lead to long-term retention and success.

Hiring Should Be Thoughtful, Not Desperate: Avoid hiring in desperation. Treat the hiring process like building a long-term partnership. Get to know the person through multiple interviews, and ensure they align with the company's culture and long-term goals.

Julie’s QUICK TIP Takeaways

Tailor Your Holiday Offerings to Client Needs

During the holidays, people crave relaxation, sanity, and convenience. Consider creating seasonal services that cater to these desires, like adding perks (e.g., gift wrapping) with spa services. A personalized holiday experience will boost both service and retail sales.

Set Clear Goals for the Season

Before you dive into holiday planning, define what success looks like for your spa. Do you want to generate extra revenue, increase brand awareness, or reward loyal customers? Knowing your goals will help you focus your promotions and holiday efforts effectively.

Julie’s Top Three Takeaways 

Fill Your Soul Cup: Beyond just working hard, it's vital to make time for soul-enriching activities. Whether it's chatting with friends, spending time outdoors, or digging clams (yes, clams!), the things that light up your spirit are just as important as the grind.

Community Connections Matter: Relationships bring happiness, reduce stress, and help you grow. Whether it's sharing pie recipes with a 94-year-old neighbor or simply checking in with friends, these connections fuel your well-being. Don’t underestimate the power of a good conversation or a meaningful connection!

Balance the Grind with Intentional Living: It’s easy to get stuck in "grind mode," but stepping back to refocus on what really matters brings clarity. Stay intentional, make space for what makes you feel alive, and don’t forget that success is about more than just work—it’s about how you feel living your life.

Julie’s TOP THREE Takeaways

1. Embrace Fall’s Energy as a Fresh Start

Just like back-to-school season, fall brings a renewed sense of focus and productivity. Whether you’ve taken it easy during summer or been overwhelmed with work, this is the perfect time to shake it off and get back in the game. Fall is your opportunity to reset, refocus, and push toward your goals for the year’s end.

2. Fall into Q4 with a Clear and Measurable Goal

Q4 isn’t the time for vague or massive goals. It's your last sprint! Break down exactly what you want to accomplish and make it something measurable. Whether it’s boosting revenue, hosting holiday parties, or prioritizing self-care, make sure it’s something you can track and feel great about.

3. Align Your 90-Day Sprint with What Matters

Julie shared her own 90-day sprint goal, focusing on self-improvement without stepping back from her business. What’s your sprint goal? Whether it's financial, personal, or family-focused, now is the time to get specific about what will bring you a sense of accomplishment by year’s end.

Julie’s TOP three takeaways: 

The Power of the "Why": It's not just about setting big goals like hitting a million dollars in revenue—it's about understanding why you want to achieve them. Digging deep into your motivation can reveal the true driving force behind your goals, making them even more meaningful and attainable.

Autopilot No More: Are you on autopilot in your business? Julie encourages entrepreneurs to break free from routine thinking and really question what they want and why. It’s all about being intentional with your goals and not just going through the motions.

Cliff Notes Magic: Julie shares a game-changing tip she picked up from Mel Robbins: ask "Why?" five times. This simple exercise can help you uncover the deeper reasons behind your desires, making sure your actions align with your true aspirations.

Julie’s Top THREE Takeaways

Be authentic: Figure out what your brand is, and what aligns with it and leave the rest.  

Addressing Obstacles and Overcoming Fear: Address fears and obstacles that prevent progress, such as the belief that the business will fall apart without the owner.

Balancing Work and Business Development: The main challenge discussed is finding a balance between working in the business (e.g., providing services, handling day-to-day tasks) and working on the business (e.g., strategizing for future growth, setting long-term goals). Many owners struggle to focus on strategic planning because they are overwhelmed by daily operations.

Julies TOP THREE Takeaways 

Embrace Staff Turnover as Part of the Journey: Losing team members, even the ones you thought would be with you for the long haul, is just part of the business. It’s tough, but it’s also a learning experience. We can’t take it personally—it’s just part of the journey for both you and them.

Get Strategic with Hiring: Consider hiring part-time staff and allowing them to earn more hours as they prove themselves. This approach sets clear expectations and creates a partnership where both sides are committed to success. It’s all about building a relationship from day one.

Know What Drives Your Team: Take the time to understand what’s motivating each of your team members. Is it saving for something big? Is it career advancement? Knowing this helps you tailor your approach, which can go a long way in keeping them on board.

Continuing Education is Key: Estheticians need ongoing education to build confidence, stay updated on industry standards, and deliver better results to their clients.

Non-Invasive Technology for Sensitive Skin: Devices like EpiStep offer a non-invasive, results-oriented alternative for estheticians, particularly beneficial for clients with sensitive skin.
