Moving Forward


So had an unexpected very slow Saturday today. Everyone tells me that business is slow in the summer but what I have experienced I did not expect. I was able to update my website today and ad a mobile device feature. So...now you can view my web page from your mobile device with ease. Check it out when you get a chance designsbychrista.net

I also set a small Google ad words account due to some free credits I got. Interested in seeing how it turns out. I set my budget at $25/day for 3 days.

I have never used Facebook advertising but I do have a few credits to advertise with them as well. So will be trying that out to see how it goes.

I know once the word is out there and as long as we continue to give quality work my business will flourish. I did a ladies hair the other day who said she was charged $400 to have tape extensions applied. She advised me they only last 1 month. I could not imagine. To me extensions should be affordable to the point you are able to continue to get them done on a regular basis.

Well I will be updating you on my advertising endeavors. I do have a great strategy I will be trying out this week. I do not want to share what it is at this point but I will update you on my progress.

State board testing 6/23 and 6/25. Excited, anxious and  nervous to take the tests. Wish me luck.

Hello,

My Name is Christa. I just recently finished esthetician school last Friday. I will be taking state boards on 6/25/12. I am excited as I take this Journey of opening a salon/spa, building clientele, offering new and trendy services, and much more.

I believe in taking my time with each client to ensure satisfaction. I will always continue my education to give you the best most up to date techniques.

I just recently starting renting a small space in old town scottsdale. Where I plan to expand my lash extension services while also adding waxings, lash and brow tinting among other services.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you and will enjoy and all all feed back you have for me.
