Any suggestions on how to start??

[ChampagneToast]

Good morning guys. I don't know if I'm posting in the correct category. How did you start your cosmetology/esthetician business with no clientele or money? I was thinking about starting mobile, but I feel it's unsafe? Any suggestions? I also have a full time job.

Here's my website if you want to take a look. https://salonlove(dot)square(dot)site

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi India,

A lot of our new clients are from Instagram, Google or referrals. 

Take pictures of your work to post on Instagram, Google Business page, and add more information to your website. 

Add your booking link to your Instagram and Google page and website.

Ask clients for reviews. Build credibility and trust. Build a brand.

What helped us a lot was putting ourselves in the client's position. If you were looking for your own service, how would you do it and what would you look for? Why do you go to the hairdresser or nail tech that you currently go to? Or do they come to you and that's why you chose them? How did you even find out about them in the first place?

Good luck!
