There is a lot going on right now in our communities, and in the world as a whole, and we all have a lot of questions about what’s happening. I’m answering them the best that I can today on the podcast, because we’ll all need to be having bold and awkward conversations in our own lives. I really hope you gain some insight from this episode, as I offer my imperfect guidance to you.

Social media burnout is at an all-time high, and it’s just a fact that people are now looking for other resources online. One such resource is Yelp, a popular online directory for discovering local businesses, which I’ve talked about on the podcast before. In this episode, I’m going to share some statistics around Yelp, so when it becomes as big as I think it will in the next few years, you are well ahead of the game. So set your foundation down now, because Yelp is on the rise!

As we are right in the midst of the busy holiday season, the Thrivers team and I are releasing two “Best of” episodes rather than our usual fresh content to wrap up 2024. Today, we’re replaying a popular episode we first brought you in April of 2024, where I talked more about “The Great Divide” and the pricing crisis we’ve found ourselves in, along with the important things to keep in mind as we operate our businesses in today’s environment.

As we head into a brand new year, we invite you to take the time to listen back to these special replay episodes and ask yourself if you've already implemented everything shared in them. If you're anything like me, you often listen, get inspired, but you don't always take action. So this is an opportunity to instead of learning more stuff, take the time to ask yourself what you have heard but haven't completely dialed in just yet. This is a great time to look at your brand and your business, identify the areas you don't usually have time for or have convinced yourself are good enough as we head into 2025, and to start thinking about how you want this new year to look for you.

If you haven’t yet listened to it, I encourage you to tune into our #354 - The 2025 Predictions Podcast to see what I see coming for our industry in the near future, and we’ll see you back here next week!

Have you ever felt the sting of a competitor trying to snatch your hard-earned clients?

You’ve likely noticed that the impact of social media apps like Instagram has really changed, and stylists from coast-to-coast are telling me it’s becoming more difficult to attract and retain clients than it was in years past. In this episode, I want to look at a classic marketing concept that came up recently at an excellent mastermind event that I attended that I felt would resonate with you all. I hope what I share here today helps you attract more clients FAST in today’s economy, and also keeps them coming back to you time and time again!
