    117. If Your Salon Doesn't Have The "Wow Factor," It's Time To Rethink Your Experience

    117. If Your Salon Doesn't Have The "Wow Factor," It's Time To Rethink Your Experience

    Last year was my year for concerts. I traveled to countless states and saw many artists, but only one stood out: ODESZA.

    Why? Because they created an incredible "wow factor" that I haven't experienced at any other concert. Their first concert was so impactful, that I've seen them multiple times since.

    This got me thinking... How are you creating a "wow" experience for your clients? How are you guaranteeing your clients will book again? I share all my thoughts on this topic in today's episode!

    To see one of my favorite ODESZA Instagram posts, click here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CxeOlpmPpwC/?igsh=MW1xNTYxY2Myenh3aA==
