Start by telling your client&#8217;s story \u2014 where they came from, how they felt before your solution, what you did, and why.

And this style of email doesn&#8217;t have to be complicated. Often, a simple: <em>&#8220;Hey Clare, Are you still interested in [insert treatment or service]?&#8221;<\/em> will get your clients booked in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lessov: what do you need less of in your business?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For Kristian\u2019s business, brother Lessov represented the need to have less:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Reliance on existing educators<\/li><li>Heavy dependence on product suppliers\u2019 education<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>But what does Lessov mean to you?

What if they were personal, plain text weekly emails instead \u2014 similar to those you&#8217;d send a friend or family member?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the regular use of promotional offers and space availability announcements, they\u2019re brand damaging. When you use them often, you essentially tell your clients they never have to pay the full price for a service or never have to pre-book because you always have gaps. Instead,  send <em>morov<\/em> value-filled emails, to which you can then add a <em>&#8220;P.S.&#8221; <\/em>promotional line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For more advice from Ryan Power, listen to Phorest FM Episode 108 on which he discusses how salon owners can use the blurred lines of business and personal social media profiles to their advantage:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Ryan Power on Using the Blurred Lines Between Personal &amp; Business Personas as a Marketing Advantage\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/40ZxFOCI3zxvkH7nxsqwHu?si=ktIyJZNSRvS6hstkSeMVpQ&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:34px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, as you go through Kristian Tognini\u2019s Russian brothers exercise and framework, you\u2019ll find you always go back to adding <em>morov<\/em> things to your list, which frankly is quite normal.

Client evenings, a new website, staff events or maybe salon memberships?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being it&#8217;s a particularly popular idea, and that UK-based salon coach Phil Jackson focused his Salon Owners Summit workshop on the topic, we&#8217;ll look at what it would take to<em> tossin<\/em> memberships into your salon business strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Turning Bravo Hairdressing around with salon memberships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before implementing his membership program, Phil Jackson&#8217;s salon \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/bravohair.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Bravo Hairdressing (opens in a new tab)\">Bravo Hairdressing<\/a> \u2014 was losing staff, money, and his accountant said they had six months left to make the team redundant and close up shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortly after that call, he happened to meet an independent gym owner whose fixed costs were all paid on the 1st of the month. The idea of getting rid of the first of the month anxiety, as Phil puts it, became extremely appealing. However, to put it in his words: <em>&#8220;The gym membership model relies on the fact that people like me join the gym and then don&#8217;t go. In fact, most gyms couldn&#8217;t function on their current pricing model if all of their members turned up and used the facilities. I didn&#8217;t want that for the salon memberships. It had to provide incredible value to the customer, as well as being a financial win for us.&#8221; <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With his back against the wall, he implemented memberships and turned the business around in about twelve months. Today, he stresses that salon memberships aren&#8217;t a fit for every business, and advises salon owners to seriously consider the following five aspects before jumping into the deep end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/05010017\/phorest-dub6jan20-lr-297-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Phil Jackson: salon owner and coach, speaker, author\" class=\"wp-image-67057\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/05010017\/phorest-dub6jan20-lr-297-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/05010017\/phorest-dub6jan20-lr-297-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/05010017\/phorest-dub6jan20-lr-297-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/05010017\/phorest-dub6jan20-lr-297.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><em>Phil Jackson<\/em><br><em>Salon owner and coach, speaker, author<br>Karl Hussey Photography 2020<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Packages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At Bravo Hairdressing, club members are the most profitable clients. That&#8217;s because the membership packages don&#8217;t bundle unpopular services together. If you go down that road, you&#8217;re likely going to need discounts to make your program attractive. Hence, when thinking about your packages, don&#8217;t overcomplicate things. You need to be able to sell your membership program in a sentence. For instance, <em>&#8220;our basic package is unlimited haircuts.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Pricing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Determining your pricing is a crucial step in setting up salon memberships. Work out the basics of your pricing by looking at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>How many services on average would your average client book in for during a period of 12 months?<em> (example: 7.5 services)<\/em><\/li><li>If you increase their visit frequency slightly, what would that bring it up to? <em>(example: 8 services)<\/em><\/li><li>How much is that worth yearly if your average treatment cost is let&#8217;s say 70$? <em>(example: 560$)<\/em><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Split that into 12 equal payments, and you&#8217;ve got your base number. Then consider the added benefits, loyalty rewards, upsell opportunities, and adjust your figure accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Benefits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What extra benefits could you introduce for your members? At Bravo Hairdressing, an example was the &#8220;mayday voucher,&#8221; which members can use once per month to be seen urgently. Take some time to brainstorm and come up with potential ideas that would fit your salon&#8217;s culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Membership agreements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because this section varies considerably depending on your salon\u2019s location, make sure you have a sit down with your accountant to figure out the logistics behind setting up salon memberships:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Rolling yearly agreement<\/li><li>Cancellation mechanism<\/li><li>Payment platform, etc.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, how will you raise awareness and market your programme?
