G20, Obama, Your Salon/Spa – Forget it!
Posted by: | CommentsObama is in town!
I’m an avid Obama fan.
I’ve yet to conclude whether or not he’s any good at real politics, real economics… BUT, simply for what he can do with the power of a speech – I applaud him. I’ve been privy to many of the world’s greatest speakers and young Obama IS one of them.
And he’s here for G20 – a gathering of World Leaders for a cup of coffee, a slice of gingerbread and good old fashioned ‘chin-wag’.
Or at least that’s about as much use as it’ll be to you and your salon/spa…
They may be meeting to agree how to confront the worst Global financial crisis since the 1930’s but for business owners looking for a ‘ray of light’ – forget it!
All weather is local — what happens to you in your salon/spa, your life, your finances has much more to do with you, what you think about and what you do than it does with what’s happening in the economy.
It’s time to stop sitting, waiting and hoping that Government ‘intervention’ will be the ’saviour’.
Instead, it’s time for new strategies, new focus, new vigour and some good old fashioned British, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, American, Australian (sorry if I haven’t mentioned your country) determination to ‘yank’ us out of recession like a leek from a vegetable patch.
Any salon or spa owner with the determination to succeed can learn new skills, make the necessary changes, adapt and in turn both survive, even prosper and make a positive contribution to putting our and the World’s economy back on track.
It’s not that there is a lack of opportunity or even a lack of money.
There are plenty of ways salons and spas can dramatically increase their effectiveness in acquiring new clients, nurturing clients and developing new, exciting products, services, programs and treatments.
Now is the time to being doing more, much more to build world-class customer focused salon/spa that adds real value to our and the World’s economies.
WE cannot sit waiting, hoping for a rescue from the government or a turn of events.
That may never happen.
It’s down to each and every one of us – to make our ‘own luck’.
Dedicated to your success,
Henry.

7 Secrets to Recession Proofing Your Salon or Spa – Part 8

Recession Busting Secret Number 7
Decide Where You’re Going and Set Clearly Defined, Time Limited Goals to Get There
It’s my observation there are two types of business owners and entrepreneurs; merry-go-round and elevator entrepreneurs. Merry-go-round entrepreneurs go round and round and round and round the same motions, over and over and over and over again (see how mundane it is), getting nowhere but dizzy (and a bit sick)and certainly not making any forward progress.
These are business owners who arrive in their shops, offices, garages, salons etc. with no clear idea of what they’ll do that day and just ’see what happens’.
On the other hand, elevator entrepreneurs are constantly finding the fastest, easiest ways to ‘jump’ to the next level. Always testing, always trying something new, always tweaking, and never giving up.
These are the ones that get to their businesses every day (if they’re not at their home office busy working on attracting new clients and looking after current clients) with a rock-solid clear plan of what they want to achieve that day, that week, that month and that year and what skills they need to get there.
Both types require work, but one type gets to a whole different destination to the other. The difference in the ultimate destination is quite simple setting clear, time defined goals.
Here’s an example…If I told you there was a million pounds sat waiting for you on an island in Hawaii and all you had to do was go find it within 48 hours and you could have it, could you do it?
There are over 100 islands in Hawaii…It’ be quite difficult wouldn’t it?
If I now told you which island it was on, would that make it easier? Of course it would, but still nigh on impossible as the island I’ve put the money on is the Big Island which has 4,000 odd square miles.
If I now told you which road it was on and which house it was at, could you find it? Getting easier right…
If I told you where to book airplane tickets, which airport to leave from, which airport to go to, how to get a car, and gave you a GPS system and the exact address of the house where the money was, could you now find it? Of course…Of course…
And exactly the same principles apply to your journey with your business from where you are now, to where you want to be.
You must know exactly where you want to get to and then simply work backwards identifying each step you need to take along the way.
Setting clearly defined, time limited goals is the ultimate secret to beating recession and achieving all the success you want from your business and your life.
