  • What to Know About a Trademark for Your Business

    Have you taken the necessary steps to make sure your sugar business is protected with the appropriate trademark?  We want to help estheticians, cosmetologists, sugaring professionals and beauty babes feel confident knowing that the brand they are building is available and protected, so you can sleep at night knowing that you don’t have to be afraid of a cease and desist letter.

    In this episode of The Sugar Show, SugarMama Shannon O’Brien sits down with her legal guide, Joey Vitale, to discuss the importance of doing due diligence on your brand before you spend years building it.  You’ll learn why the trademark research is a crucial first step, and things to watch out for when you are starting your trademark journey.

    Quotes:

    “Applying for a trademark is the best way to make sure that your brand is available and not stepping on anybody else's toes. So yes, it costs money to file this application. But it's a win win either way, because either you know that it's available and you're protecting it, or you're learning that it's not available.” (15:03)

    “Trademarks help you create a powerful brand” (17:36)

    “The most valuable part of what you can pay a trademark attorney to do for you, is not the application. It's running a strong search, and then being strategic on how to fill out the application based on that search.” (25:08)

  • Are You Struggling to Learn to Sugar? Tips to Master Your Sugaring Technique

    If that little ball of lemon, sugar, and water has got you frustrated...listen up, this episode is for YOU!

    First off... Don't Give Up!

    I was a terrible student of sugaring.  My brain just didnt connect with my hand to get the mold OR the flick right.  I would practice just like my trainer showed me (with no videos at the time to take home with me!).  No matter how hard I pushed I just couldnt get that ball of sugar off someone's skin, let alone remove hair!

    In this episode, you will not only hear some of my confessions but the tips and tricks I learned along the way to MASTER this technique.  I know you can do it too!

  • The Mental Side of Sugaring PLUS Bonus!

    Spend some time with your host, Shannon the SugarMama where she dives into the mental side of being a sugaring professional.  In this episode, she guides you through understanding that once you shut that treatment room door, sugaring is more than just your technique it encompasses all of the senses for your clients.  Clients tend to open up and dump their emotions into the room...and YOU need to know how to not absorb those emotions.

    Shannon helps you to understand how to create not only a safe and calm space for your clients...but for YOUR mental state as well.  The senses matter to US!!!

    Take this time to stop and start your day of service with some calming breaths...to take your vibration from all around the room to focus on you.

    When you can center your thoughts and focus on what is in front of you, you can fully be present for your clients and your business.

    In between clients, it will benefit you SO MUCH MORE to take a moment to ground EVERY TIME.  A few moments will change the entire pace of your day.

    You will feel better.

    Your clients will FEEL you feel better and grounded.


    Anything your clients need, facial, sugar, lashes...YOU are going to be calm, focused, and positive and will get it in return.

    For those who have taken the time to listen to this podcast, I have created an audio recording for you to download...to reset yourself before you invite your next client into your room.  Before you dust on that powder, put on that nitrile glove, or slide that sugar out of the jar…

    This gift is for you...and will directly benefit not only those around you...but I promise you will see a shift in your business success as well.
