Sure Amy, have you considered or tried designing facials or skin care treatments based on your product manufacture? Skin care companies usually suggest certain protocols including titles for “their” facials. Also, consider your location/area, for example, using your experience from speaking with moms at your local library, maybe you would offer (something like) “Mommy Facial,” or something regarding the changing season, such as “Pumpkin Spice Facial,” or if you offer specific treatments, such as acne treatment, use a title around acne. I’m unsure about waxing. I personally do not have specific titles for waxing. I simply show the service and price. I hope this helps a bit.

Thanks Lugenia! I have also been toying with the idea of changing the names of my facials on my menu to something fun like "date night special wax" for the Brazilian what do you think? Ideas for facials?

Hi Amy, congratulations on the baby and for returning to your desired (career) position, and although you are asking for advice from the group, you have provided some wonderful tips. I particularly like the idea of educating moms at the library! Building clientele in an unfriendly atmosphere is a major challenge. Offering discounts is a great idea, and maybe running an ad in your neighborhood newsletter.  Many say that word of mouth is the best form of advertisement, but I always say we must have the first group of folks to come in, before we can get those “word of mouth” clients. (Lol) I hope other esthys weigh in and provide additional suggestions. Good luck with everything!

I am returning to the biz after being with my infant and have returned to work in a massage center that doesn't really cater to skincare. I also have an old boss who I suspect has been bad mouthing me. How do I start building clientele? Thoughts? I started offering discounts and incentives t gives zinc  That was  what got me busy the first time. I also guest lecture at our local library and moms groups. I have a blog, a Facebook page and a website. Help!

A menu of your services offered @ the front table may catch the eyes of potential esthetic clients :)  

May I suggest the menu (large enough to be read easily) standing upright with perhaps your photo on it for familiarity.  A few samples of your skin care line offered for treatment, and your business cards.  On your days @ the salon getting saying goodbye to the hair clients while handing them a menu !  Good luck :)

Any Ideas?  I work in a salon environment 3 days a week, and hair clients don't know I am offering Esthetic services.  We have a large Display table near the front desk/ check in.  Any Ideas for a sign of some sort that says there is an Esthetician offering skin services etc?  I seem to be stuck on verbage etc..  Thanks, appreciate any help!   Marianne

Have you all considered going to "google places" to add your profile? This helps greatly with coming on top of the searches done on Google. It's free, easy, and could only help you build presence. Adding a small video also boosts results!

Check out my blog for ways to increase your client base, sell retail for very little out of pocket expense. I am rebuilding a client base from scratch{new town moved in June ]. I have been very fortunate to be introduced to this novel way of doing business.
