KEY TAKEAWAYS:
🔅Before getting on the floor, Stephen Adams spent years learning the business and training.
🔅Once he was ready to advance onto the floor, he sped up the process by going out and promoting himself. He had so many requests that he was able to skip ahead in his apprenticeship program to get on the floor.
🔅Due to a family emergency, Stephen was asked to step in for someone he assisted. Stephen said yes, even though he had little to no experience leading a show on stage. While it was nerve-racking, he made it through, and this willingness to seize an opportunity led him to new and other opportunities!
🔅When Stephen accomplished his career goals, it was time for the last goal: salon ownership.
🔅Stephen started Beauty Certified Education to provide Continuing Education Units (CEUs). He then made the classes available online to help everyone in the state have easier access.
🔅Go to your state board meetings! The only way to make changes in curriculum or local rules. Changing a rule usually takes 2-3 years, so get ready to get involved!
🔅Do not get into education for the money. It is very hard to make good money from education unless you do it full-time and build a large social media following. Start by focusing on building your business behind the chair to give you the income to support yourself and invest in building your following and demand as an educator.
🔅If your team is walking out on you, it is your fault. make sure you foster open communication and have a pathway for people to leave you and go out on their own
