Thank you Cheryl.  So far it is pretty slow but I am "semi"  retired now so not pushing for the kind of schedule I have worked for others.  I plan to meet with my accountant to get tax information and still have to get my insurance in place so I am plugging along.  I want to make certain that everyone who enters my little spa room is transported to a place of peace, relaxation, and rejuvenation.  Then upon leaving they are astounded by the glo of their skin.  So one person at a time, taking time, and using these great products I will build to a comfortable pace.

I created a closed group on Facebook for potential customers rather than creating a page that can be publicly searched and so far I have not advertised.  I plan to be referral based only.  Probably not much help here but happy to "chat" anytime!

Victoria - thanks for your comments!  I'm always fearful that people are sleeping through my webinars.  We put a lot of love and thought into the products, so I hope they work well for you and your clients.

 

I have a quote that hangs on my office wall:

"You build a successful business one client at a time.  You really do.  A successful business can be measured in a slow and steady growth over the years rather than a rocket rise to the top.  There can never be one single client, no matter how famous, who will make you an overnight success; instead it is the complex network of personal relationships and individual interactions which over time bring the financial rewards of a truly successful business.  Every single encounter with a prospective client is vital to your success and the overall growth of your business."

 

Best wishes - Lisa

Hi Victoria - Any thought so far on the products?

So far I love them and now have 4 customers who have received at least one product to their homes.  By selling a bit of retail I have been able to order the Lemon zest and will be doing a facial with that on Friday.

I just registered for another webinar and was about to put in another order for your great Vit C serum. 

Thanks for checking in!!!

So glad you love the Vitamin C.  I, personally, love it too.  I have researched synthetic Vitamin C that has a longer shelf live, but honestly, I could not prove the effectiveness of a synthetic Vitamin C.  When I went back to the chemist to ask about how to make a synthetic (meaning laboratory made) Vitamin C that is effective, they hesitated and said "that's why we stick with the natural product, it just works."  I'm glad you like it.  Natural products don't always sit well with consumers - they want something that smells like Lemon and has the consistency of silicone.  I'm telling you from personal experience what works and it's my Vitamin C serum.

 

I'm not trying to shoot myself in the foot by saying that the Vitamin C isn't lovely (which I think it is), but consumers sometimes want broccoli to taste like butter.  Broccoli is good for us, but it's not butter.

Hi Erica:

Yes, we can provide a recorded copy of the webinar (but the recorded copy is so boring because you don't get to hear everyone else's comments or ask questions yourself).

 

1)  Please e-mail your mailing address to lisa@skinscriptrx.com and I will send a recorded copy.

2)  Where are you located (city/state, again e-mail me) and maybe I could come to your city/state and provide a live training.
