Today’s world is different. We are now dealing with Generations X, Y and Z. Never before have previous generations been exposed to so much technology and information and, in return, CHOICES! This means we must build a strong connection so the prospect ‘feels’ that we are the one, now is the time and, most importantly, that we CARE! Remember, nothing happens until an appointment SHOWS! In this webinar you will learn to:

  • Take control
  • Build rapport
  • Ask the right questions
  • Create value to the appointment
  • Schedule more “today” appointments
  • Use texting that works

More than 400 letters have been sent to lawmakers so far in the #IncludeBeauty campaign. Join the fight to protect our schools, students and employees from the College Affordability Act, a House bill approved in Committee by the Democrat leadership of the House Education and Labor Committee. The bill is the most comprehensive legislative attack we have seen on the cosmetology sector due to multiple damaging provisions directed at for-profit colleges.

You can help by communicating directly with Members of Congress to oppose the House College Affordability Act, and ask your employees and students to do so too. Letter templates and instructions are available here
