I thought about going mobile, of course, by referral only or if I know that person. But I'm afraid of dogs.

Hello Ladies
Congrats to Adrianne! ;0) I am offering my services via mobile. I go to the clients house or workplace if it allows. My question is how are you ladies networking and marketing yourselves? I have a website now thanks to ASCP. I was with a networking group too but that didn't work out. How are you ladies getting your name out there? I would love to hear any feedback.
Thank you,
Eva

Vanessa, keep looking it took me a little over a year to find a location and even though my home is zoned properly, I'm still fighting for some of my permits. It can be very frustrating but it is well worth it.

I am so ready to start my home based business but I running into brick walls. We decided to look for another house but everytime I find something I like that community doesnt allow it.

My clients loved coming to my new home practice and they were shocked at how beautiful and professional everything was.They all said they liked it more than the salon I was at. I am seriously thinking about changing the name but I don't think that would solve the sign issue unless I put it on a mail box.

'Adrianne Couve' is a very chic and professional sounding name!! Sounds like a lady who would know how to give a damn good facial!!

I would add your personal name first to the title of your business. Give it ownership with that beautiful name Adrianne's..... When the "word" spreads about your wonderful business people will be really talking about YOU! I love your name and others will too! Easy to remember with the letter "A", and with phone listings for skin care it will be one of the first listed. The city wants to know what businesses are around town for your protection, fire dept., police patroling, etc. I pay an additional property tax to my city. They wanted to know my hours and parking accomendations.

Sayra, the name of my business is Caliope Skin Center. I'm still getting most of my business from ads in the News Paper otherwise I would just switch everything to my name. The sign I have is a temporary sign a little bigger than a relators sign and when I took the drawing in yesterday I was told that the sign was good and that there is nothing wrong with it. The guy couldn't tell me exactly what is wrong except he thinks I need to fill out paper work to change the usage of the property. He kept asking me what the property was used for in the past. I don't understand why they are doing this when my property is zoned neighborhood/business. How would you advise I switch to just my name at this point?

Adrianne, I have a white sign hanging on the entrance gate leading to my front door that says "Sayra's" in black letters. It is not too large and hangs by a chain matching the fence, visual from the street. I asked city officials if just my name would be ok for identifying my home to my "guests" and they approved it verbally. There is a size ordinance for signs but my sign has worked for me for all these years and I have never had to fill out a form or had any complaints. I do have my formal permitt for a business in my neighborhood. Professional signs are nice looking but remember word of mouth is the best way to advertise. What is the name of your business? Consider using your first name in the title to make it more personal to your clients. They will feel like they have you as their "personal" skin care professional. You have a lovely name and I would advise you use it!
