Estheticians in Business

Why Walk‑Ins Aren’t for Everyone (And That’s Okay)


Listen Later

✨ Episode Summary:
In this week’s Marketing Monday, Allyson busts the myth that walk-ins are a “must” for building a successful esthetician business.

If you’ve ever felt pressure to sit around waiting for foot traffic or wished your space had more walk-ins — this episode is your permission slip to let that go.

Walk-ins are not for everyone — and in many cases, they can hurt more than help.

Allyson walks you through:

  • Why chasing walk-ins might actually be keeping you stuck

  • When walk-ins do make sense (and when they don’t)

  • What to focus on instead if you want a booked-out schedule without being a 24/7 esthi-convenience store

  • Simple strategies to attract aligned clients without sacrificing your sanity or schedule

This is your reminder that you’re not selling slurpees. You’re building a business. 💼

🧠 Key Takeaways:

  • Walk-ins often kill predictability — in your time, your energy, and your income.

  • “Visibility” doesn’t mean foot traffic. It means being top-of-mind in DMs, inboxes, and referrals.

  • Create a clear, simple intro offer instead of hoping someone randomly walks in.

  • You’re allowed to design a business that fits your life — not one that keeps you chained to your suite “just in case.”
