 1 comment so far Some writings resonate We’ve heard every reason and excuse in the book for salon professionals not becoming successful with their own PR. “I can’t afford monthly PR agency fees“, or, “I can’t afford multi-month commitments right now“.

5 of you commented - join the conversation! Just talk … It’s upsetting. … and it always makes us sad. The wishers … the dreamers …. the pretenders … the talkers …. so very few actual starters.

4 of you commented - join the conversation! At Lightning Speed in Today’s World. We just got our October issue of Beauty Industry Report (BIR) and immediately noticed Editor Mike Nave wrote the ‘Guest Columnist’ column himself this month. That’s unusual.

2 of you commented - join the conversation! How Are You Perceived? Public relations helps to shape and cultivate how others perceive you. But before you can focus your ‘public relations’ on others you need to shape and cultivate your story for yourself and be able to tell it effectively.
