Are you trying to make sense of the buzzword "tariffs" and what they could actually mean for your salon or stylist career? So much about the tariffs are changing in real time, and I’ve only reported on tariffs once in a previous episode of this podcast, but today I dig a little deeper based on information that’s now available at the time of recording.

These tariffs are a complex issue, and so much of this is scary because our administrations are still in negotiations. It is my hope that after today things are a little bit clearer on how tariffs can affect you, because as always, I want to give you the information that will help you navigate the tariff terrain and make the best decisions for you and your business.

Feeling the pressure of a shifting economy with more client cancellations and stretched-out appointments, many stylists have been tempted to lean on discounts and loyalty programs to keep their chair full. Are these the right strategies to be using, or are they just surface-level solutions? Today, I break it all down and work the math to show how using these types of things really play out for your business in the long-run.

I hope this episode arms you with the perspective and knowledge to make the right decision, so you can determine if the financial impact of offering these incentives makes sense for you, or if it will just lead to you working hard with a full chair and making less money!
