Today's topic orbits around the issue of spa seasonality. Because while this is a constant issue in the spa industry, very little is done by most spa owners to mitigate the problem. I totally know why (you're cRaZy busy with running the business and maybe also in the treatment room) but the fact is, you need a MARKETING SYSTEM to take back control of the ups & downs of your bookings and sales.

Most spa businesses rely on ONE (maybe two) marketing platforms like social media & email to share their message. The problem? If you need more clients (or more of your Ideal Client) booking & buying, it means you need more visibilty of your expertise and spa outcomes. It's REALLY hard to be seen & heard by multitudes if you're limited to 1-2 platforms.

Here's how to create ONE piece of content that you can expand onto FIVE marketing platforms with ease!

Spa Events - Covid-Style! In-person spa events are a LOT of work, but they are fabulous to connect with your clients, share information more widely than 1:1 in the treatment room and generates buzz around new products & services. 

But what about when we CAN'T gather in groups. Ditch the spa event? Heck no!  Today I've asked my dear friend Shannon from Anam Cara Spa to share her experience with shifting to a virtual skin event in November when it wasn't possible to do it in person. Bottom line? She doubled her previous years pre-Covid event sales AND saved time, energy & expenses!  

Tell me again that virtual offers for the spa industry doesn't work?🤔 . . . .

✨ August’s Seven Energy: Embracing Faith and Trust

August brings the energy of seven, which encourages deep faith and trust. This may be challenging, especially if trusting processes or people is difficult. The seven energy invites us to reflect inwardly and balance intellect with intuition.

Challenges and Opportunities This Month

• Feeling Stuck: Use feelings of stuckness or isolation as a chance to seek spiritual support and navigate these emotions gracefully.
• Risk and Reward: Balance intuitive insights with data (like KPIs) for informed decision-making. Avoid impulsiveness.
• Truth and Authenticity: Expect situations that test honesty. Align your practices with core values and ensure transparency.

Practical Tips for Spa Owners

• Track KPIs: Combine intuitive insights with data.
• Evaluate Purpose: Reconnect with your business purpose if needed.
• Prioritize Self-Care: Focus on health and well-being.
• Seek Collaboration: Consider collaborating or getting a coach.

August in a Nutshell

Embrace August’s energy by trusting the process and balancing your spiritual and intellectual sides. For more on using numerology in your business, check out my website.

It's an exciting time when you're ready to expand, but are you truly prepared for the financial side of things? Let's explore the crucial spa business metric you need to keep an eye on before taking the leap.

It's easy to get swept up in the excitement of growth plans, but have you checked your financial reports to see if your business can handle the upcoming costs and expenses? Sometimes, our optimism can cloud our judgment. And the usual Profit/Loss statement from your bookkeeper or the sales from your Point of Sale are not enough to make a wise decision that’s based on calculated risk. 

Numbers Are Navigators…Again!

But fear not, there's a key number hiding in your booking system that can give you a clear view of your financial readiness. Running a spa business on a budget requires mindfulness. Jumping into growth initiatives based solely on perception can lead to some sticky situations. Just think about it:

• Hiring before you're truly busy enough can strain your finances.

• Introducing new products without enough sales can hurt your cash flow.

• Expanding your space too soon adds extra expenses without boosting revenue.

Let's talk about the big KPI that sits at the critical point of growth decisions: Productivity and it’s your compass during spa growth planning. In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What Productivity tracks in your business.

• The green light Productivity number for growth.

• Where to find this metric in your spa software.

• How often to check your Productivity metric.

• What you should be looking for while you’re tracking this KPI.

I'm very much about tapping into your intuition, trusting your intuition in your business, letting that guide you hundred percent. But we also need to pair that with the data, the actual numbers. - Kirsten Foss

What’s Your Productivity KPI At, Dear Spa Owner? 

Discovering what Productivity means & how it affects your spa business and team growth outcomes is a huge eye-opener. When I first learned all of this information, you would have seen my mouth hang open in disbelief! “OH!! That’s why I’m so cash strapped. I didn’t know what to look for BEFORE I dropped thousands of dollars on that new hire that I didn’t end up staying because it wasn’t busy enough.” and “OH!! Now I see where the opportunity gaps are with my sales!!”

Now the question is “How do I increase Productivity”

I would love to answer that for you! It’s a big topic and I’ll make that for another podcast. 

If you could use a seasoned Spa Business Strategist (that’s me!) to get eyes on your spa sales opportunities, book a Get-Acquainted call with me. I’ll show you how to analyze and use your reports to make strategic growth decisions that will bring your more client sales and financial freedom!

Happy April 1st! This ain't no joke - April's Business Numerology Forecast says it's time to step into this month's amplified CREATIVITY & COMMUNICATION because It's a 3 energy month y'all.

But first, a quick reframe about what “being creative” means. We’re not referring to the paint & sew kind of creativity you think about when the word "creative" is mentioned. For you, dear Spa Owner, the 3 energy refers to the incessant flow of creative ideas & solutions you have for your clients and spa business type of creativity. Yes...you see it now, don’t you? Agreed! You ARE very creative!! 

I’m diving into how the wonderful energy of April provides us all an opportunity to amp up our creativity, communication, and those heart-to-heart connections in life & spa business, which fuels growth and brings fresh innovations to their businesses. Consider this forecast as your trusty spring guide to make the most of these potentials! You’ll also want to watch out for the most common 3 energy traps - it's the other side of the massive creativity coin that can undo your entrepreneurial creativity if you're going in blind. 

In this episode, you will be able to:

• Discover how numerology can guide your business decisions and strategies for the month of April

• Uncover the secrets (not-so-secret when you can decode it!) of capturing April’s 3 energy to drive growth and success in the spa business.

• Learn why emotional intelligence will be especially needed this month to become a more effective and empathetic leader in your business.

• Make note of four specific dates in April that will act as portals to structure, creativity, letting go & balance.

“In numerology, the biggest piece to remember is that we study the energetics of the numbers one to nine, and at any time, we get to choose whether we are expressing the high vibration or the low vibration.” Kirsten Foss
