Have you implemented a gratuity free pricing model but found that it's not working as you had hoped? If so, you're not alone because I’ve been receiving messages from stylists recently who are asking how to effectively transition back to accepting gratuities, which is why I wanted to record this episode for you today.

Yes, there is a way for you to carefully work it backwards and get back to being open to accepting gratuities, and today I will show you how!

If you’ve listened to the podcast for a while now, you know that I’ve released past episodes with my predictions for the upcoming year. Historically, my predictions have been spot on, and in this episode, I’m bringing you my 2025 predictions.

My main goal of sharing these predictions with you is to get the conversation started on what's coming in 2025, and this one is coming to you earlier than usual because I believe that we are stepping into an unprecedented time of the industry. As you’ll hear, I feel that things are only going to get harder, so I am trying to give you as much time as possible to prepare. Ultimately, it’ll be your ability to adapt, stay nimble and change that is what is going to make or break you going forward.

I would love to help serve you in all of these areas, and I can’t wait to see where we land at the end of 2025 with all of these predictions that I reveal today!

In a time where the cost of living is steadily increasing, salon owners face the challenging decision of whether to absorb rising expenses or pass them on to their booth renters. In this episode, we take a deep dive into a DM I received from a booth renter salon owner, as I break down her current pricing model and analyze whether raising the rent is the right move or if it’s time to consider a new salon strategy all together.

I can tell you that money alone won’t solve this challenge, but marketing and really looking at what it’s going to take to create a highly desirable space that people want to work in is going to be the solution here!
