I'm diving into paid ads to promote me as a barber so that I can book my Sundays with 10 cuts. If 10% stick with me, I have systems in place to retain them and encourage them to leave reviews or make referrals. If I retain more than 10%, I'll build my client book much faster. So that means I get to set and hit BIGGER goals. I'll share my process here. First step is setting up a target market. There are dozens of options, not sure if it's worth it to get specific. If yes, please let me know, and I'll add details about their interests to make these ads reach my target.

Or would you make changes.

I stopped wearing sneakers years ago What shoes do you wear to the shop?

A few months ago, one of our barbers left us suddenly. She had been a great asset to the team and, importantly, left on good terms. Fast forward a few months later—she asked me for a reference for a new job. I gave her a strong recommendation, and now she's going to be managing their entire store. This isn’t the first time I’ve done this for a barber, but it’s a good reminder: If you ever decide to leave your shop, ALWAYS leave on good terms. You never know when you might need the owner's help again.
