Textures Salon 2008-Cur rent
A stylist at this salon and have worked part-t ime here since 2008. Brands used are
ColorProof, Serie Expert, Pureology and Paul Mi tchell. My color lines are Framesi and
Keune
Inherited a ter r i tory that needed attention and within a year t r ipled the business they were
doing per month. My success was showing up consistently, the ability to represent many
p roducts through educational support and never promising what I couldn’t deliver. Being
d iligent, along with strong presentation skills were inst rumental in building my business to
business relationships.
Trained, presented and worked with consultants in the field to build the Philip B message
and managed the distr ibution company teams that came on board with Philip B Botanicals.
Worked with the Philip B staff to give the Philip B’s message strength and doing business a
m ust. Worked directly with salon owners to close the sale and set up educational events to
follow. Launched both Ul ta Beauty and Beauty 360; worked with managers and staff to set
u p calendar events.
