Whether you have had a good year, or scraped through by the seat of your pants, the things you do between now and the end of the year will influence how you answer that same question at the end of 2025. Like most things in life business is DYNAMIC in other words success is the result of being pro-active and if you... FAIL TO PLAN, YOU PLAN TO FAIL “WHAT DECISIONS SHOULD YOU BE MAKING TO ENSURE 2025 IS BETTER THAN 2024?” 1 . Invest in a COMPLETE BUSINESS SYSTEM, not just a bookings app, not just a stock-control system, or a CRM, or a fancy accounting system. You need an Enterprise Management System which integrates information for your COMPLETE BUSINESS. 2. Strengthen your Team and reduce staff turnover. Staff who receive on-going training, work to a set of goals and targets and receive regular feedback via appraisals and performance reports (KPI or key performance indicators) remain loyal and motivated. 3 . Control Costs especially in areas such as stock and you could safe up to 20% by having a system that replaces stock used, monitors model level and reorder levels, AND provides advanced reporting on stock-movement and forward-cover. Any savings in expenditure goes straight to the PROFIT LINE. 4 . Grow you clientele by recognising and rewarding clients with a Loyalty Programme.Have a NEW CLIENT STRATEGY and a business system that shows how many new clients you get, and where they come from, how many new clients you are converting into regulars AND how many clients no longer come to you. 5 . Increase Social Media. YOU HAVE TO BE SEEN TO BE SOLD. You have no idea how powerful social media has become. Some think it was Social Media that was the determining factor in the recent Presidential Elections in America. 6. Invest in MY SALON SOFTWARE. The ONE that has it all!

Does your clients’ hair colour look dull and faded? Stock the easy solution to their hair woes, a shampoo that revives and nurtures hair’s healthy shine.   milk_shake®  Deep Detox Shampoo This shampoo is formulated specifically to remove copper and lead residue from the hair, nourishing the hair and restoring its radiance and natural splendour.   Hair is constantly under pressure from the harmful effects of pollution, grease, and styling product build-up. These factors have a negative effect on the hair’s appearance and health.   Traditional Cleansing Routines Are Often Not Enough: the shower water itself can be hard, meaning that the water has a high mineral content, resulting in the build-up of heavy metals on the lengths (mainly copper and lead), which can change the hair’s colour and deprive it of its shine.   milk_shake®  Deep Detox Shampoo restores your clients’ shine every time they wash their hair.   Efficacy tests at each wash show:  55.5%* of copper and 63.3%* of lead is removed from the lengths  100%** of styling product residue is removed  94%*** of excess grease is removed, restoring the scalp’s healthy balance   *test on strands of human hair – analysis of copper/lead content after washing.  **test on strands of human hair – measurement of the diameter of the hair after washing.  ***test on 20 individuals – self-assessment/measurement of sebum content after a single application.   Our  milk_shake® deep detox shampoo is just like a cup of matcha latte , combining the benefits of green tea with a deliciously sweet milky flavour. A specific and targeted formula chosen with care and enriched with camellia sinensis (green tea) extract and milk proteins.   Camellia Sinensis  Green tea leaves, packed with vitamins, minerals and other microelements, have an antioxidant and soothing action on the scalp.   Milk Proteins  Give strength and nourishment, and contribute to keeping the hair soft and manageable, avoiding dehydration.   Not only does this shampoo have the power to strengthen and nourish hair,  milk_shake® Deep Detox  Shampoo  is packed with vitamins, minerals, and other microelements that give this superfood a soothing effect on hair & scalp.     So Easy to Use Your clients need only distribute evenly over damp hair and lather, leave on for a few minutes, then rinse, then enjoy the restored brilliance!   Help your clients achieve the richest, healthy shine you can give them with  milk_shake® Deep Detox Shampoo.   Speak to your milk_shake® rep about stocking the solution to dull, faded hair colour and be your clients’ hero!

With  BARBERS’ STORIES  we want to celebrate our  heroes . Men  who are visionaries, artists,  barbers  who have revolutionised an ancient craft. A small European tour, north to south, meeting them on the way so that we can tell you their stories. The journey begins. MILAN Italy The engine of the Italian economy, home to the stock exchange, the global capital of fashion and design, an international metropolis, but also a hub for European cultural avant-gardes and a place with a cult of both work and happy hours / clubbing. Grey and colourful, eccentric and reserved, a metropolis but also a village, Milan hides intriguing contrasts and surprises, like an unexpected spirit of community and solidarity. Here, you can find at least a couple of barbershops with over a century of history, preserving one of the reasons they originated in the ancient Mediterranean to be a special meeting place welcoming and reserved at the same time. In a city like this, a DEPOT CONCEPT STORE is essential. [BARBER] Luca Malnati @DEPOTBARBER Behind this extraordinary concept store is the multidisciplinary DEPOT team, consisting of marketing experts, barbers and trainers. Luca Malnati stands out among the trainers, a young barber with contagious enthusiasm and a special talent for relationships. It's also thanks to him that "DEPOT® BARBER & Co. was first created. After contributing to the success of the Milanese barbershop, by managing it for a while, Luca is now entirely dedicated to the role of international DEPOT educator. What's his story? Read on.
