  • S2E25. The Salon Owner’s Shortcut to Profit: Benchmarks That Actually Matter
    Oct 14 2025

    Want to start leading with more structure today? Grab our free Power Moves: Salon Strategy Edition—a no-fluff guide packed with the mindset shifts and strategic actions every salon owner needs—and start leading like the CEO you are.

    Most salon owners chase the wrong numbers—busy schedules, booked-out weeks, or followers on social media—and still wonder why profit feels out of reach. The truth? Those metrics don’t pay the bills. Profit comes from tracking the benchmarks that actually matter.

    In this episode, we’re breaking down the key numbers that drive real growth in your salon: payroll percentage, cost per hour, rebooking rate, and retail-to-service ratio. We’ll explain what healthy benchmarks look like, why flat commission rates will always hold you back, and how to use these numbers to make smarter decisions about pricing, promotions, and team performance.

    If you’re tired of feeling “booked and busy” but not seeing the profit to match, this conversation will give you the clarity and structure to stop guessing, start measuring, and finally lead your salon with the confidence of a true CEO.

  • S2E24. Why a True Day Off Requires More Than Closing Your Salon
    Oct 7 2025

    Want to start leading with more structure today? Grab our free Power Moves: Salon Strategy Edition—a no-fluff guide packed with the mindset shifts and strategic actions every salon owner needs—and start leading like the CEO you are.

    Let’s be honest—most salon owners aren’t really taking days off. You might not be behind the chair, but you’re still glued to your phone, putting out fires, and running the business from your “day off.” That isn’t freedom—that’s working for free.

    In this episode, we’re talking about the false sense of rest owners create for themselves and how it keeps you trapped in burnout. We’ll unpack why stepping away feels impossible, the hidden cost of always being “on call,” and the leadership systems you need to build so your business can run without you.

    If you’ve ever said you want more freedom but can’t remember the last time you truly disconnected, this conversation will give you the clarity and structure to reclaim your time, protect your energy, and actually take the days off you’ve been promising yourself.
