Summary
Does your online presence actually match the level of talent you bring to the chair? For most stylists, there's a massive gap between their actual skill and the "DIY" brand they're showing the world, and that disconnect is costing you thousands in high-end bookings. That's going to change, as today, I show you why playing it safe with phone photos is acting as a ceiling on your income!
I'm giving you the exact checklist to fill your marketing calendar for the next 6 months and the strategy to turn a single photoshoot into a "rising tide" for your entire team, and much more.

| 0:51.5 | What is up and welcome back to the Thriving Stilis podcast. |
| 1:13.1 | I'm your host, Brits Siva. And today we're talking about salon, photo shoot tips, and strategies right at the top of this episode, I want to tell you who this is for. If you are in the studio suite, if you are a booth renter, if you are a salon owner with a team, if you have an in-home salon, this is for you.

| 1:34.6 | those episodes I thought I had already recorded. And then I was talking to a salon owner as |
