John Huscroft’s Business Advice

We were delighted to welcome John Huscroft to Zoom for our weekly FHA Staff Room Chat session. This business expert has provided lots of education for the FHA over the years, so it was lovely to see him and hear his expert advice for the coming months.

As a fellow freelancer (and Wella Technical Manager!), John has no end of relevant advice – here are just some of his insights for the coming weeks:

• John predicts there will be three phases of reopening:
  • Rush
  • Recession
  • Resurgence

• He offered advice for each of these stages, including being mindful of your own health and well-being, ensuring prices are in order (including relevant adjustments for the new type of appointments), being flexible and creative with your services and how to use social media to stay ahead when clients start looking for new hairdressers.

Many thanks to John for his invaluable contribution today – and the many other times too! For a full report on what was covered in the session, or to rewatch, visit the FHA Staff Room Chat on Facebook.
