It’s a fact…the more people that know about your eyelash extension and beauty business the more clients could be calling You! But what should you do if you don’t have much budget to spring for high dollar advertising?
You take to the streets and Guerrilla GrassRoot your efforts. What do I mean by that? I mean get out there and meet clients where they already are. Whether that be at a hair salon, summer events, past clients who have lost touch, or bridal studios. Wherever there are people who care about their appearance is where you should meet them.
If you’re not naturally an extrovert with strangers, no worries I’ll share some clever ways to get attention and at least get some phone calls!
***Special Invite*** Everyone likes to feel invited…no matter what it is. Why not set up a special day(Monday’s perhaps) where you can service local hair stylists and salon owners with discounted services. They get a great deal on lashes and beauty…and then they tell their clients about You! I put together a cute little Thank You/You’re Invited bag to hang on doors of salons to grab attention and invite them to this special Stylist and Owner day.
***Food Bribery*** Who can’t be bribed with a yummy goody or two? I’m working on connecting with my local radio jockeys and offer my services to the gals on air in exchange for a quick shout out about my services. Chances are if you show up with Krispy Kreme and some flyers or a business card you’ll get some credit with the jockeys and maybe an on-air shout.
There are plenty of creative ways to get new clients, you just have to think outside of your creative box.
What other ways are you gaining new clients for your lash and beauty business? Let’s brainstorm them out in the comments!
It's a time consuming ritual that thousands and thousands of beauties are sick of doing. So in comes Microblading a semi-permanent savior of a technique. Delivering a beautifully natural and realistic looking set of eyebrows that provide easier mornings, no worries at the beach or in the shower. It truly is a life-changing service that once mastered can be equally rewarding for you as the artist and for your clients.
But getting started is different in every state and regulations are changing and shifting constantly to further create a solid set of rules for those looking to get started. Some require a license, while others do not. Best idea is to start with who regulates the tattoo industry in your state or country. From there you should be able to find the answers you need to kick your Microblading artist career off.
But sometimes overlooked is your personal inventory of skills, mindset and passion. Offering Microblading takes intense hand and eye coordination, a knack for artistry of the face, patience and an understanding of how the eyebrows play such an important role on everyone's face. I always like to say that one hair or stroke can make or break a set of brows. Without believing this truth...you may find that this field isn't for you.
Next are you ready for the business side of things? If you're considering striking it out on your own, you better be ready to wear 10 different hats...and juggle them in the air. You have to be the artist, the janitor, the marketer, the accountant, the legal, the designer, and then some. Running any business alone is never easy, but running a beauty business poses its own set of challenges. Not only do you have to be an artist you have to be a whip at getting new clients to you. And unfortunately many microblading trainers out there today have no idea how to do this. They may be amazing brow artists and instructors...but have no clue beyond Facebook and business cards to grow your new business. So you are then in a position of having a beautiful new skill you wanna share with the world...but no one to share it with.
So by now you may be over the moon excited to get started...or having second thoughts. Both of which are totally normal. But if you're having second thoughts, maybe sit down and take inventory on what is creating the doubt. Is it the investment in training, or the business side of it all?
Or if you're ready to jump in head first...you're next steps are finding out your local regulations, seeking a reputable Microblading trainer or educator, and mapping out your business goals to get started.
Lucky for you, I'm not only an Online Visibility Specialist for Microblading, Lash Artists and Beauty Pros...I also educate and train stylists on the art of skills to do the service, and how to bring them new clients. I have the online marketing background... AND...I provide these services in my business still today. I can totally relate to your challenges, your questions and come right along side of you and guide you towards a Microblading career or business you're in love with.
