  • Unlocking the Secrets of Effective Selling: Insights from Arif Isikgun's Journey in the Beauty Business
    2025/07/07
    Susan welcomes back Arif Isikgun, a global sales trainer who has made significant strides in the beauty industry. They reflect on their journey since their first meeting over two years ago, discussing the importance of retail in beauty and how it often takes a backseat to treatments. Arif shares insights from his award-winning books, "Shine" and "StorySeller," emphasizing the power of storytelling in sales and the necessity of building authentic connections with clients. The conversation delves into common challenges faced by therapists, such as fear of rejection and money mindset, while offering practical advice on how to transform client interactions into meaningful sales opportunities. KEY TAKEAWAYS Embrace Retail as a Core Element: Retail should not be viewed as a secondary aspect of the beauty industry. It is essential for enhancing treatment results and providing clients with the best possible outcomes. Build Authentic Connections: Establishing a genuine relationship with clients is crucial. Engaging in meaningful conversations during consultations helps therapists understand client needs and fosters trust, making clients more likely to purchase recommended products. Overcome Fear of Rejection: Many therapists hesitate to sell due to fear of rejection. It's important to shift the mindset from fearing objections to viewing them as opportunities for dialogue. Utilize Storytelling in Sales: Effective selling involves storytelling that connects emotionally with clients. By sharing personal experiences and the benefits of products, therapists can create a compelling narrative that encourages clients to invest in their skincare journey. BEST MOMENTS "Retail is sales and sales is communication, and that is how you create the most amazing customer journey." - Arif I "The consultation is the most important part. It's like getting the most expensive moisturiser in the world, but not ensuring that your skin is prepped first." - Arif "If you are a therapist and you've just recommended products, and they say no, instantly that makes you feel, 'Why did I bother?'" - Arif "You have to wait for the client to create an objection before we put an objection in our mind." - Susan HOST BIO Susan Routledge is a distinguished figure in the beauty industry with over 38 years of experience.

  • Celebrating Excellence: Insights into the Scratch Stars Awards and the Nail Olympia Competitions
    2025/06/30
    Susan sits down with Helena Biggs, the editorial director of Scratch magazine, to explore the vibrant and innovative world of the nail industry. With over 22 years of experience, Helena shares her journey from a multimedia journalism graduate to a key figure in beauty journalism, discussing the evolution of Scratch magazine and its impact on the nail sector. The conversation delves into the importance of standards, regulation, and the need for nail professionals to promote their skills and qualifications. Helena emphasizes the value of competitions and awards, such as the Scratch Stars Awards, as platforms for recognition and professional growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS Industry Growth and Opportunities: The nail industry is vibrant and innovative, with significant growth potential, especially in international markets. Scratch Magazine has seen an increase in US subscribers. Importance of Standards and Regulation: The UK nail industry is currently unregulated, which poses challenges for maintaining high standards. Value of Competitions and Awards: Participating in competitions like Nail Olympia and the Scratch Stars Awards can significantly enhance a nail technician's skills and profile. Pricing and Value Perception: Nail technicians are encouraged to charge their worth, as many clients may not understand the value of their skills and training. BEST MOMENTS "I think now that our industry has made moves in aesthetics with regard to licensing and stricter controls... Unfortunately, I think nails are quite far down the list." - Helena "The responsibility is twofold. Ultimately it's down to the beauty professional to shout about their accreditation... and it's up to the consumer to ask the right questions." - Helena "I think most people would go to a salon and look to see whether it's clean and tidy... but it's of course beyond that." - Susan "Competitions are really valuable... It's all about working on your timings, working on your accuracy, bettering your skills." - Helena HOST BIO Susan Routledge is a distinguished figure in the beauty industry with over 38 years of experience.
