TOO MUCH TO DO, NOT ENOUGH TIME! #SalonSmartIRE

Are you getting everything you want or expect from your salon? Does it give you time for the other things you want in your life? Does it give you a fair return on the time, effort and money you invest in it? Do you love it like you used to?

If you answered any of the above questions with a “No”, then join the club. It’s difficult to ask any salon owner nowadays, “How are you?” without hearing the word “busy” somewhere in their response. We feel overwhelmed by busyness: staff driving us crazy; unable to leave the salon for any length of time without something going wrong; settling for a production line – just getting those clients in and out again; losing that sense of achievement when they look at themselves and say, “Wow!”.

At Salon Smart Dublin we’ll be sharing real-life stories about how other salon owners manage their time – common-sense ideas for controlling the business side of your salon and putting systems in place so that things get done the way you like it, whether you’re there or not.

By listening to how others do it, you can learn how to set goals and establish priorities, how to lead and motivate your team, take responsibility for making choices and set boundaries to protect you from the flood of demands and information. In short, regain a sense of mastery over your life both at work and at home.

Didn’t you start your salon so that you could be in charge and make all the decisions? So take charge. Take charge of yourself, your team and your salon and create the impetus, energy and clarity to move to a life less busy.


Salon Smart Dublin take place on Sunday 3 November at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Golden Lane, Dublin. Tickets cost €100 plus VAT – or buy via Image Skillsnet for just €75
