362 The New Rules of Salon Marketing in the Age of AI with Phil Evans
Q: Can you explain Showcase and how it fits into the future of salon websites?
Showcase is an add-on that integrates comprehensive stylist profiles, their skills, languages, pricing, work samples, and client reviews into the salon's website, enabling visitors to drill down by stylist and make informed bookings; early beta tests show significant improvements in engagement and conversion metrics like lower bounce rates and higher interaction rates.
356 Brand Promises, Team Agreements and Difficult Behaviour with Nina Kovner
Q: What three practical rules would you give to a Salon Learner for handling emotionally difficult situations?
Get clear on brand and brand story to drive clarity on agreements and outcomes; do your own inside work; practice clear communication and accountability.
356 Brand Promises, Team Agreements and Difficult Behaviour with Nina Kovner
Q: How do you create psychological safety so someone can say they're struggling without fear of judgment?
Trust is built by keeping promises and by clearly communicating and upholding brand agreements, while still applying empathy and boundaries.
356 Brand Promises, Team Agreements and Difficult Behaviour with Nina Kovner
Q: Should leaders handle difficult behavior in the moment, or pause and reflect first?
It's situational, but a practical approach is to pause, process, then proceed, especially for those who struggle with codependency or unclear boundaries.
356 Brand Promises, Team Agreements and Difficult Behaviour with Nina Kovner
Q: Where do you think most salon owners go wrong when there's behavioral issues of any nature?
A lack of clarity around team agreements and brand story, leading to avoidance and subjective judgments instead of objective, predefined standards.
