  • EP 10: Where's Vegard?
    Kat ditches Vegard for a shorter redhead, called Dom, with a weird accent. As weird as the Norwegian? You decide. Kat and Dom spill the beans on how to get staff all excited, just like a dog with a chew toy, why a pet business is no different from a salon business, and the best way to get to know what your clients really want.

  • EP 9: Showing Value
    It's simple, it will make you instantly more profitable, but it's not sexy and most salon owners won't do it. We raise the pricing ogre again, but show you what to do when you get resistance. Kat admits her sexy-girl crush and how to live with a dickhead.

  • EP 8: What Clients Want More Than Low Prices
    We continue on from Episode 5, yes it was that long ago, and give you the rest of the low-down on what clients want more than low prices. (Hint: it's not just good customer service). Why clients complain about price, the difference between want and need, and Kat calls Vegard's Ep. 5 travel story and raises him the ball-ache of business flights.

  • EP 5: How to Price Your Shit
    If you like Vegard's accent, you're in for a treat in this episode. He talks. A lot. But all good stuff about how to make maximum profits without fearing raising your prices, why following the rest of the industry is wrong, how to be different on the high street, who determines your prices, how cupcakes can bankrupt your business, and are there really that many price buyers out there? And Vegard takes us through a walk through an airport Duty Free store after a cancelled flight and a cheap ticket leaves him stranded for hours...
