SHOW NOTES:

1. Confidence

  • in your self and in your skillset
  • Company policies / Contract
  • All of your processes and systems on the back end including workflows, automations and overall organization. Your process should be seamless

2. Delicious captivating branding and marketing

  • Branding is what captures your ideal brides attention
  • Invest in a high quality portfolio and online presence
  • Marketing is the messaging you use to speak to your ideal Brides
  • Combine delicious branding with delicious marketing and you’ll have awesome and ONGOING lead generation

3. Pricing Correctly

  • This is a HUGE one
  • SO many Artists don’t take the time to DO THE MATH when it comes to setting their rates
  • Every bridal beauty business is different, we all have different locations we serve, different specialties, products costs (some use high end products some use lower end product) overhead fees, operation fees, licensing, insurance and legal fees.
  • Consult with an accountant if you need to but I can also go over this in my Coaching services and in the Sold-Out Makeup Artist program

4. Sales Process & Tracking your Conversion Rate

  • Do you have a Sales Process and if so what does it look like
  • What is a conversion rate also referred to as a booking rateA conversion rate is the number of weddings you convert from leads to contract signed & retainer paid aka BOOKED.
  • How to read your conversion rate percentages, what information are they giving you?
  • Having a Sales Process like my "Phone Calls that Convert" method, will increase your sales even when you raise your rates!

INTRO: Today’s episode we’re covering a common question I see in our Industry and that’s whether or not you should invest in paid advertising, whether it be with the Knot, wedding wire, zola, yelp etc. I’m going to share my answer to this question based upon what has worked for me and my clients over the last 15 years! So if you’re looking to gain more inquiries, which we ALL should be constantly doing at any point in your business! Even if you have a butt load of leads coming in and you’re fully booked! First of all, Raise your rates because the demand is high and your calendar is limited. Secondly, once you raise your rates and you’re stepping into a new market level you will need more leads coming into your funnel because your conversion rate may drop a tad, so basically you ALWAYS need as many leads coming in as possible.

https://mailchi.mp/abab9f2f73a8/8asuerz05k

SHOW NOTES:

  • I have invested in some advertising my first year in business when I first started Jireh Artistry and what I found was that the type of Brides I was attracting were price shopping.
  • For whatever reason, these advertising companies are attracting this type of clientele
  • This is also some of the companies that give false information when it comes to budgeting for Your Hair & Makeup Artist services
  • Another reason for this is because they list a bunch of companies for the Bride to look through and compare the profiles
  • It’s encouraged to compare by the way these sites are set up
  • What are Brides comparing? Portfolio and Pricing. PERIOD
  • The return on investment is low if any
  • Many complaints from Artists who didn’t get any bookings
  • And I want to also note that if online paid advertisements (not talking about social media ads) has worked for you, GREAT, im so happy for you and yes please continue too do what works for you. You can also choose to add in the following into your Marketing strategy in addition to the paid advertising. I personally, have never mastered the art of paid advertising. They will try to say you need the perfect photo to capture the Brides attention etc. that’s just my 2 cents But I WILL be speaking on what I HAVE MASTERED
  • So here’s what i’d do instead
  • And what I have been doing for the last decade
  • Organic Social Media Marketing

INTRO:I say this with lots of love! I used to think I was maxed out because my rates were considered “above average” Looking back now I think it’s SO SILLY that I thought I was maxed out, that I couldn’t dare raise my rates any higher because I was already a little more than average in my area.If this is you, we’re breaking and stretching those money mindset beliefs TODAY!

SHOW NOTES:

My name is Susan Talamantes and I am the owner of Jireh Artistry & Babes Building Empires, which is my coaching service. Here’s the cliff notes:

  • Ive been in the industry for over 15 years now
  • The first 8 years I worked in the salon and did weddings on the weekends
  • At the same time for about 5 years I Studied Business building, branding, marketing and sales strategies. I loved studying Franchise concepts! I was fascinated with how they worked
  • I got burnt out working at the salon
  • Decided to put my business knowledge to the test and created built a Bridal Beauty Team in California, then I built a team in Hawaii
  • 2020 happened
  • Shifted to branding myself as a solo artists and expanded to 3 new destination locations in my state
  • Continued to fine tune my branding and marketing so that I could eventually arrive at charging premium to luxury rates in locations where my prices are 2-4 times higher than average
  • I’ve used these same Branding, Marketing & Sales strategies over the last 15 years to fill up my calendar with dream Brides and have expanded to new locations and markets 4 times already (Hawaii, Lake Tahoe, Big Sur and Yosemite National Park)

Take your branding to the NEXT level and the next level,

Same with marketing & Improve your sales process

INTRO:

For most Artists, your talent is only a tiny percentage of what actually gets Brides to book you!

We have to separate ourselves, our services and the experience we provide throughout the client’s journey with us. THIS is how you can charge premium to luxury rates as a Wedding Hairstylist & Makeup Artist, when you start focusing on the VALUE you provide and start creating a personal connection with your potential Brides!

SHOW NOTES:

GENERATING LEADS

  • When was the last time you refreshed your brand?
  • Have your business goals changed where you need to create new branding material to attract a new type of ideal bride?
  • If not how can you, hone in and further speak to your ideal Bride?
  • Styled Photoshoots Episode titled: “attracting more clients part 2”
  • Mini styled shoots Episode titles: “How to build and elevate your portfolio photos”
  • I love to use organic social media methods
  • My favorite is Instagram and Google
  • Posting to instagram often and using key hashtags to get seen
  • Same with Google, you need a Business Google account and then post there regularly!
  • Whatever you’re currently using that actually WORKS do MORE of THAT

NURTURE THOSE LEADS:

  • EVERY LEAD is worth the nurture
  • Don’t get annoyed if a Bride reaches out in the wrong way (example DM on IG)
  • Nurture that lead! Make it easy for them to take the next step with you!
  • Not hearing back from the Bride does NOT mean she doesn’t want to hire you, or she can’t afford you. ALWAYS follow up. You’re not bothering them, you’re running a business!
  • Elevate your Client experience:
  • How can you improve the experience your clients receive as they interact with your company during ALL the stages of the booking process?

CONVERT: This is where you seal the deal and book the wedding!

  • My favorite way to do this is with a Phone Call Consultation and then a follow up process afterwards if they don’t hire me right away
  • The phone call is where you further strengthen and build a relationship with the client
  • The client can shift from shopping around and getting pricing from everyone to now getting to know you as a person
  • You build an emotional connection
  • Then you paint the picture of what she can expect when working with you
  • You listen to her needs, wants and concerns
  • You address all those concerns
  • The language you use during the call speaks to her directly, if you know your ideal Bride well enough, it will be like you’re reading her mind! You’re speaking her language!
  • You give her a taste of the quality of service she’ll receive just by getting on the phone with her and giving her 15 minutes of your time to fully serve her

SHOW NOTES:

  • Your weak voice vs. Your boss voice
  • Separate your emotions from the business
  • Don't take things personally.
  • In every situation, look at the facts, keep it simple and don’t over react.
  • If you made a mistake, it’s a learning lesson.
  • How can you avoid making that mistake again? Usually it’s a hole in your processes, systems or contract.
  • When to apologize, when not to apologize.
  • Using the word unfortunately is another form of apologizing
  • What tone are you setting in your email?
  • What words are you using? Are you coming off professional like a legit
  • business or is it too friendly and wishy washy or are you giving low confidence?

a simple formula to follow:

  1. Assess situation with no emotion, it is what it is and nothing more, nothing less.
  2. What does your contract or business policies say about this situation?
  3. Send an email with a simple response.
  4. Start off on a positive note: I hope you enjoyed your weekend! I hope your week is off to a great start!
  5. Enforce policies, or address the issue, apologize if needed
  6. Keep it short and simple (how can you get the point across in as few words as possible without leaving out important points, do not over explain yourself!!)
  7. End on a positive note: Enjoy your weekend! Excited to meet you soon! Excited for your wedding day! Have a great week!

SETTING BOUNDARIES IN COMMUNICATION:

  • having boundaries on your communication teaches Brides to respect your business hours, you’re not on call for them at any time they want
  • I use Honeybook to keep all communication organized

I'm sharing 4 key points you can use to give your beauty business a check up. Getting inquiries but not being able to book the wedding means there is a disconnection somewhere, let's find out where it is! P.S. it most likely has nothing to do with your pricing!

SHOW NOTES:

  1. Your brand:
  2. Is your brand matching your experience level and your rates?
  3. Are you charging luxury rates but your branding is not giving luxury?

  4. Not Educating your Bride!

  5. We HAVE to make sure potential Brides are comparing apples to apples

  6. Teach her what to look for when hiring an Artist, how to properly vet her vendors
  7. Show her WHY she needs to hire you and help her to TRUST you with her wedding day!
  8. How can you teach her & show her? Make IG posts, videos, lives, reels,
  9. OR my FAVORITE way is to GET ON THE PHONE WITH HER!!
  10. Let her get a taste of what it would be like to work with you
  11. This is where you get to show her your VALUE not just your PRICING, there is a difference

  12. Disorganization or Confusion:

  13. You may or may not have heard the term Confused Client’s don’t buy

  14. I want you to inspect your entire booking process and pricing guide
  15. Is each step crystal clear? Do they know what to expect next?
  16. Ask a friend to go through your process as if a client and see if there’s anything that can use some clarity
  17. Are you using verbiage that is so industry specific that regular everyday people won’t understand

  18. Confidence:

  19. Not showing up with confidence will scare a Bride away

  20. You have to be confident in your services
  21. Confident in your policies
  22. Confident in your process
  23. If you’re hesitating or the words you’re using in your communication is coming off as unsure you will lose trust with you Brides

  7. If your conversion rate is 50%, let’s say you get 10 inquiries this week, you can expect to book 5 of those. Let’s say it’s 20 inquiries and you book 50% that’s 10 new bookings. The more inquiries you get the more you book.
  8. Here’s the best part! You can increase your conversion rate! Instead of booking half, 50% of your inquiries, what if you can book 60%, 80%?
  9. You CAN increase that percentage by spending time fine tuning your brand, your reputation and your client experience
  10. This is how important having a brand and a legit system is!!

  11. Spend your time wisely

  12. Focus on result producing activities, working closest to the dollar

  13. What are the tasks you do in your business that leads directly to money in the bank?
  14. Take a minute to think about what’s WORKING well in your business, then DO MORE of THAT, invest more time and energy in that
  15. Follow up: Create a follow up system
  16. How much money are we leaving on the table by NOT following up?!
  17. In the same manner, how much are we leaving on the table by not offering upgrades?
  18. Do you have an additional service you can offer on the wedding day?
  19. Maybe a package that includes more time with you or an option for touch ups later?

INTRO:

How are you handling client inquiries? Are you doing everything you can to book that wedding or are you simply sending a price sheet with an automated message, praying they’ll respond and say they’re ready to hire you and then just moving on when they ghost you?

SHOW NOTES:

My formula for an impactful Client Experience:

  1. First Impression:
  2. Always have an automated response! This allows the client to feel seen and appreciated right away!
  3. Key points to include:
  4. thank them and congratulate them
  5. let them know you’re highly in demand
  6. You take pride in fully serving them
  7. Timeframe for when they can expect to hear back from you
  8. What’s next? ALWAYS give them clarity and make it feel EASY
  9. Then Respond in the timeframe you gave them!
  10. Have email templates ready to go! Either you’re available for their date or not. If not, do you have referrals for them? (HONEYBOOK)

  11. Schedule a Call:

Here’s where I like to invite them to book a consultation phone call WHY?
To deliver the BEST service!! Allow them to feel, seen, heard, ask questions, give them clarity, educate them, give them a taste of what it would be like to work with you! Paint that picture for them! You know why they should hire you, but they don’t, at this point, know much about you at all! And here’s where you can over deliver! If you’ve been in the industry for some time, there’s things you know that they don’t! Maybe you can give them a lil clarity on how the morning will flow or tips to keep things running smoothly. Maybe you’ve done plenty of weddings at their venue and you KNOW that there’s no speaker there for getting ready music so you can tell them to make sure to bring a small speaker if they want music. Maybe it’s a destination location they’ve never been to and you can share your favorite hotels to stay at.

  1. Sending them your rates:

  2. This should feel like an experience as well

  3. Remember every contact they have with you is an experience with your BRAND
  4. Whatever you use to send your rates should be aesthetically pleasing to the eye and on brand. We’re in the BRIDAL BEAUTY industry, everything that has to do with weddings is pretty!
  5. Don’t over complicate it!!
  6. Keep visuals clear and clean
  7. Keep fonts easy to read
  8. Give information clearly make sure there’s NO confusion, have a friend proof read who’s not in the industry
  9. Include a few reviews with a link to read more

  10. Follow up!!

  11. Create a follow up sequence either automated or to pop up as a reminder

Shownotes:

  • Doing Phone Consultations
  • The pushback I always get when it comes to phone calls is the fear of getting on the phone, feeling like you’re on the spot, by the end of this episode, you’ll not only feel convinced to offer phone calls but you’ll also feel empowered
  • Became obsessed with learning business
  • Sales Strategies and Psychology
  • In a recent episode, Attracting more Clients Part 1, I shared some psychology behind how women purchase
  • Multiple touch points and an emotional connection
  • Phone Call Consultations serve multiple purposes
  • Allows you to build a personal connection
  • Allows you to address their fears & concerns, which eliminate the barriers, what's stopping them from hiring you
  • Allows you to position yourself as the expert & show your VALUE, sets you apart immediately
  • Lastly, it allows you to recognize any Bridezilla vibes or red flags
  • HOW:
  • I will give a quick overview of some important areas to touch on, for the women who choose to invest in one on one mentorship sessions with me, I do have a full script and I go over this phone call process in depth
  • The call should take about 15 mins sometimes 30 mins if you’re really vibin!
  • First - get to know them, don’t go straight to business
  • Ask them about their vision for hair & makeup
  • Listen for any fears or concerns they verbalize
  • Tell them what makes you different, how do you cater to them, paint the picture of what it's like to work with you
  • Address their concerns / fears, what can you do to comfort them and make them feel safe
  • Give them CLARITY, be very specific about how the booking process works, what to expect next. You want to make it SUPER easy for them to book you and pay you!
  • If they’re feeling confused at all, they will interpret that as you being unorganized or they will feel overwhelmed and move on to the next artist. Obviously you want process to flow seamlessly, if you feel you need help in that area, I also help optimizing processes & systems during my one on one sessions, link will be in the show notes
  • Send them the next steps to book you!

Show Notes:

  • Events, Wedding Wire, Honeybook, networking meetings that are industry specific like the Rising Tide Society, Bridal Fairs
  • Bridal Fairs, Pro’s networking with other vendors, attract people / location of booth, lead capture, FOLLOW UP 100 times, Cons - price shopping brides must expose them to your brand. Remember every client needs to have multiple interactions with you before they decide to take the next step
  • Styled Photoshoots:

  • 1 rule have to learn how to VET these shoots, do not participate in any and every shoot that comes your way unless you’re SUPER new and have all the time in the world, in this case be sure to take your own photos and videos of the model before & after you do her hair & makeup as a back up plan

  • on brand, photography style matches your brand, participating vendors have a similar ideal bride, similar brand and or business goals

  • Publications!

  • Coffee dates - building personal connections & relationships that will last forever, who to approach / invite, how to invite

  • This is my favorite platform to use when generating business or when planning to make a shift in your business like, serving new locations, re-branding, switching your ideal client
  • Here’s where you really want to grab your notebook!
  • You’re great at what you do , you have the talent but you need to help Brides find you! AND when Brides find you, you want to make sure you present them with everything they need to BOOK YOU.
  • What are some things a Bride needs in order to book?
  • She needs to be informed, feel connected and feel that she can TRUST you.
  • There has been multiple studies that show women, especially, buy with their emotions! This is a well known sales/ marketing fact
  • Instgram Bio, what needs to be there
  • Branding
  • Using Instagram hashtags (SUPER EFFECTIVE)

If you want to know how to deliver EXACTLY what your Bride wants, EVERY SINGLE TIME, then this episode is for you!

It’s taken me plenty of years to develop this fool proof method and I’ve seen a 100% success rate since implementing this process. And this process even works with super indecisive brides!

Show Notes:

  • Start off with some photos. Discuss with them
  • The key here is listening to what they’re saying
  • Ask the right questions. What’s their skin like, how much makeup do they wear on a normal basis, how much coverage do they want, do they prefer matte or dewy finish?
  • Now I’m gonna lose a lot of you when I say this next sentence BUT sometimes clients aren’t prepared with photos and this process STILL works!
  • Take it SLOW!
  • Once you’ve almost completed the look, no liner, no lashes, you can show them the mirror and get feedback and give them options for moving forward (we can add or take away)
  • The reason why you WAIT until they’re almost complete is because a lot of times it’s hard for them to visualize what the rest of the makeup would look like
  • Lastly when it comes to eyelashes, they can make or break the style. Eyelashes come in all shapes and sizes and can have positive or negative effects on the eyes. Be sure to select the right style for the makeup look, the clients eye shape and to compliment their natural lashes.
  • After you’re completely done and you show them the mirror, always ask if there’s anything else they’d like, any adjustments they would like to make.

SHOWNOTES:

  • Building a personal connection: show up genuinely on Instagram. Sharing things that Brides can relate to on your stories or reels, any common interests that your Brides might be able to relate to. When you post yourself, speaking face to camera, you become a real person.
  • Bridal Phone Consults:
  • Just the fact that you’re spending your time with them already sets you apart from other HMUAS and that makes them feel appreciative, gains their respect and trust.
  • FOLLOW UP:
  • My last tip is super simple. Follow up!! What are you scared of? If you don’t have time, set up an automated sequence of follow up emails. You can do this through HoneyBook by the way ( I have a discount code for HB at the link below BTW) Follow up until you get an answer, either at some point they will say they’re ready OR they’ll say they went another direction / hired someone else.

INTRO:

What a ride it’s been! The Wedding demand has been so high & it’s leaving every Wedding vendor feeling SO freakin exhausted!

Every year since 2020 my calendar has been booked with weddings every day of the week and I know I’m not the only one experiencing this! And every year I said I was going to take less weddings, have more self discipline and 2 years later I feel like I’ve finally gotten the hang of it!

So I want to share with you a few things you can do to set boundaries within your business and STOP the overwhelm!!

SHOW NOTES:

  • GET YOUR SYSTEMS IN ORDER: In most cases, if you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s because your systems are not fully optimized. What does that mean? That means you need 1. A CRM client Relations Management system and then workflows & automations within there so that you can save SO MUCH time on responding to inquiries and managing bookings. This is the part everyone hates the most but it’s the MOST crucial for your business!! If you need help with this, book a biz besties session with me, a 90 minute private session where I can hold your hand and walk you through each step to set this up in the easiest , most simplified way possible!!
  • SET BOUDARIES: define how many bookings per week or month, will allow you to feel well rested
  • Once you have that number, do some math, do you need to raise your rates in order to still bring in your desired income? (ofcourse there's a ton more that goes into raising rates but here I'm focusing on your desired income)
  • IT'S OK TO SAY NO: Give yourself permission to turn away weddings!! Know when you are saying NO to a wedding, you are saying YES to living a balanced & refreshed life!
  • DO SOMETHING RELAXING: Reward yourself for all the hard work you've put in recently. Get a massage, schedule a nail appointment, take a nature walk, read a book on the beach, spend time with your kids! Whatever is going to fuel your soul!

Description:

I share portfolio building strategies you can use to build your Portfolio OR refine your portfolio and online brand to attract your dream Brides!

We discuss everything from simple techniques you can use right away, to more thorough strategies that require more planning!

Show Notes:

  • How to capture photos while working a real wedding in a professional manner
  • Use natural lighting or your Makeup Light
  • Find a clean background, use anything that's on brand!
  • Snag a prop, if available, such as flowers or a champagne glass
  • How to do your own quick and easy portfolio photo session
  • I suggest doing these on a weekly basis if you're just starting out and really need to build your portfolio OR if you're in a re-branding process where you're taking your business to a new level
  • Do a model's hair & makeup (can be a friend or family member!)
  • Have them wear white or order an inexpensive dress from www.lulus.com
  • Snag some fresh flowers from a floral vendor OR faux flowers from Michaels or a craft supply, these can be used multiple times and look great in photos!
  • Take photos with your phone or pro camera
  • Take it up a notch by collabing with a Professional Photographer & Florist
  • Sign up to participate in a Styles Shoot! You can find styled shoot groups on Facebook for your area.
  • Respond to Shoots that are being organized by someone else AND are in alignment with your brand. More tips for this in the show.
  • Plan & organize your own Styled Shoot with multiple vendors involved. Can also specifically shoot with the intention of getting your work published!
