I know that being in business isn’t always easy. Along with the many highs and ‘a ha’ moments it can sometimes be soul destroying, frustrating and a very lonely place to be.

  • New salon owner!!

    GMS has been incredibly helpful to me as I began opening a salon and now that the salon is open. I love the guests Antony has on but I think I enjoy his “pep talks” the best. I listen on my way to and from the salon and I feel like he is talking to me. And I can listen multiple times and get something new out of each episode. Thank you Antony!!

  • Getting newly graduated stylists profitable quickly..

    Amazing precise information. Anthony is always able to straightly articulate the our industry situation clearly & provide honest recommendation at the same time. As a young hairstylist (almost 4 years on the floor) in Vancouver Canada is consistently facing negativity of salon culture & super difficult to find my path. Listening to Anthony’s podcast is always a great fuel to keep me going! Highly highly recommended!
