82. The Legendary Winn Claybaugh Speaks on Overcoming Salon Struggles and Finding the Best Mentors

We are excited to have Winn Claybaugh join us in our LashCast studios. If you don't know who Winn is, you are in for a treat. We met Winn a couple of years ago at a conference and we're blown away by his talk. We were so excited by his presentation that we asked him to speak at LashCon this year and he said "yes"! So you won't only hear him here, you'll get to hear him again as our closing speaker in November. In our episode today Winn shares his thoughts on how to get through difficult times like Covid-19. If you own a business, you will continue to face new problems each year...so learning to have the right mindset is what you need to get your business through those difficult times. We also dig into Winn's book "Be Nice (Or Else!) where we talk about the importance of systems, finding the best mentors, and how to deal with gossip in your business. I know you'll find this episode to be a huge encouragement. Please give us feedback on our IG page @lashcastpodcast!.

Buy your ticket: https://bit.ly/39EF7nj Has your business bounced back to where it was pre-Covid-19? If you're like most businesses, you've seen things slow down at least a little if not a lot. We opened our salon back in 2006, and then the Great Recession hit us in 2008. Our timing was horrible. On top of a slowed-down economy, most people didn't even know what lash extensions were and there was no Instagram to help us to affordably market our business. While it wasn't easy, we found a way to grow our business in the midst of the recession. In this webinar, we will break down and share all the marketing tricks and promotions that worked and got our salon to grow into being a 7-digit award-winning in Southern California. When you're done, you'll be equipped with many new strategies and ideas that you can implement in your business. THE VIRTUAL LASHCONFERENCE IS HERE - November 15-16, 2020 2020 has been the most difficult year for all of us business owners. Live lash events have been canceled for the year, and we didn't want to cancel LashCon too...we felt people need this event more than ever. We are moving LashCon into the interactive virtual world. We have asked a collection of amazing business coaches, marketing experts, social media pros, salons owners and more to come share their best tips to help you grow your business. This event won't be like most webinars where you just want a series of videos. We have a phone app you will download before the conference. With this app, you'll be able to connect with other lash artists, watch speakers, go to live Q&As, play games, win prizes, and go to the virtual sponsor room where you can interact with your favorite lash brands. If you want to give your business a boost heading into 2021, this is the conference to sign up for this year. To sign up go to www.thelashconference.com. Tickets start at $129.
