    SMME #467 Why Winging It Is Costing You Growth (And What To Do Instead)

    Still winging your spa marketing? Creating promotions five days before they launch? Handling everything yourself because "it's easier than explaining it"? That approach might have gotten you to six figures, but it's the exact reason you're stuck there. In this episode, Daniela breaks down the real cost of winging it in your spa business and reveals exactly what strategic, systems-based businesses do differently. From last-minute marketing that leaves money on the table to systems living exclusively in your head, you'll discover where the gaps are and how to fix them. Whether you're doing $20K or $40K per month, this episode will show you how to work smarter instead of harder and why AI adoption isn't optional anymore. In this episode, we discuss:  The three major places winging it shows up in spa businesses (and what it's costing you) Why the approach that got you to $250K won't get you to $500K or beyond How to use custom GPTs to train your team and document your systems The mindset shift required to move from service provider to Spa CEO A five-step action plan to stop winging it and start building strategically Why AI adoption is critical for staying competitive in 2026 and beyond   Keep the conversation going inside the Spa Marketing Made Easy Community by clicking here.

    SMME #465 Open to Growth: Why Comfort Zones Are Killing Your Spa Business in 2026

    What if the only thing standing between you and your next level of success is your willingness to be uncomfortable? In this powerful episode to kick off 2026, Daniela pulls back the curtain on her personal growth journey and shares why she's committing to a year of being "open" to opportunities that genuinely scare her. From speaking at a 500-person conference in Vegas to hosting intimate CEO intensives to manning a booth at the massive Javits Center trade show in New York, she's doing things that push every single one of her "I'd rather not" buttons. But here's why it matters for YOUR business: the spa owners who thrive in the next 3 to 5 years won't be the most experienced; they'll be the ones who adapt fastest, test boldly, and pivot when needed. Your business will only grow as much as you're willing to grow. In this episode, we discuss:  Why choosing a single word (instead of resolutions) creates a powerful decision-making filter The difference between honoring boundaries and hiding behind them How in-person connections create ripple effects that virtual meetings can't replicate Why AI and rapid industry changes favor those who act with speed over those who wait The specific uncomfortable commitments Daniela is making in Q1 (and why they matter) How to identify the one thing you're avoiding that would genuinely move your business forward   Keep the conversation going inside the Spa Marketing Made Easy Community by clicking here.
