209 The Key to Longevity in the Hair and Beauty Industry with Sam Brocato

Hairdressing is often seen as a young person’s industry; my guess would be that the average person working in the industry is probably in their late 20s.   Although on the one hand, that’s a negative thing because it’s reflective of the high turnover rates of staff who choose to move into other industries, it also means that those who stay in the industry are constantly being exposed to new ideas, new ways of thinking, and new ways of looking at the world.   The secret to a successful long-term career in the hairdressing industry is having the ambition, foresight, and courage to continually evolve and reinvent oneself and one’s business.   My guest on today’s podcast is a person who epitomises these characteristics: Sam Brocato from the New York-based salon bearing his name.   In today’s podcast, we will discuss:   ●      The pros and cons of being in the salon industry today ●      How technology has impacted Sam’s ever-evolving business ●      The changes in salon business models and product distribution…   And lots more!   For full show notes, links and resources mentioned visit: https://growmysalonbusiness.com/podcast/209/   Thanks so much for joining me this week.

Om Podcasten

I know that being in business isn’t always easy. Along with the many highs and ‘a ha’ moments it can sometimes be soul destroying, frustrating and a very lonely place to be. Being a business owner is one of life’s greatest educations and it gives you two clear choices, either you continually learn, adapt and grow, or you resist change, stagnate and perish. We live in ever changing and sometimes challenging times, so being informed and constantly inspired is more important than ever. Join Antony Whitaker talking to thought leaders on the business side of the hairdressing industry discussing insightful, provocative and inspiring ideas that matter. Get ready to learn, get ready to be challenged, get ready to be inspired and most importantly get ready to grow your salon business!
