Harness the power of social media to skyrocket your business. Utilize tips such as understanding your audience, authenticity, engagement, interactive content, and consistent posting. By implementing these strategies, you’ll create a vibrant online presence that attracts and retains clients, solidifying your position as a go-to lash artist.
- Know Your Audience: Tailor your content to your audience’s preferences, whether they’re clients or fellow lash artists.
- Be Authentic: Authenticity builds trust and connection with your audience, fostering a loyal following.
- Engage With Your Audience: Actively interact with your followers, responding to comments and questions to strengthen relationships.
- Post Interactive Content: Use reels, stories, and other interactive formats to keep your audience engaged.
- Post Consistently: Regular posting maintains visibility, helping you reach new clients and keep existing ones engaged.
3. Charge Higher Prices:
Strategically pricing your services is pivotal in boosting income. Consider these tips to set prices that reflect the quality of your work and ensure a sustainable lash business.
- Evaluate Competition: Price competitively, around 10-15% less than the most expensive competitors, to attract clients without compromising on quality. But also recognize your worth, and increasing your price by a couple dollars can make a big difference at the end of the year. In 2022, Lash Artists in our End of year survey reported that they charged $110-$129 for classic set, and $150-$169 for volume set.
- Avoid Steep Discounts: Limit discounts to maintain perceived value, offering occasional promotions without devaluing your services. Offering referral discounts can be a great way to get more new customers without running promotions.
- Let Cheap Clients Go: Communicate the value of your work to clients who seek lower prices, prioritizing those who appreciate quality.
- Invest in Quality Products: Opt for high-quality lash products to showcase your commitment to excellence, fostering client loyalty.
4. Reselling Products to the Customer:
Explore the lucrative avenue of retailing lash products to enhance your clients’ experience and boost your bottom line.
- Include Lash Detox: Integrate lash detox in the first appointment, emphasizing the importance of aftercare for impeccable lash health. Read this blog post for other products you can retail to customers to earn commission on those sales.
