Guest Speaking Engagements for Esthetic Schools


Elevate Your Students’ Education with Expert Insights on Client Experience and Client Management

Are you looking to provide your students with a comprehensive education that goes beyond the standard curriculum? I offer guest speaking engagements specifically designed for future esthetic professionals, focusing on the critical yet often overlooked aspects of client experience and client management. While the standard curriculum equips students with essential technical skills, mastering client interaction and management is crucial for long-term success in the esthetics industry.


What I Offer

During my guest lectures, I cover key topics that are indispensable for newly licensed estheticians, including:


  • The Importance of First Impressions: How to ensure every client feels valued and respected from the first interaction.
  • Effective Communication: Techniques for understanding client needs and managing expectations.
  • Handling Challenging Situations: Strategies for dealing with common client issues, including late cancellations, no-shows, and difficult clients.
  • Building Lasting Client Relationships: Tips for creating a loyal client base through exceptional service and follow-up.
  • Professional Boundaries: Maintaining professionalism while building rapport with clients.


Why It’s Important

Client experience and management are integral to the advancement and success of any esthetician. These skills help in building a loyal clientele, enhancing customer satisfaction, and creating a professional environment that fosters trust and respect.


Customized to Your Needs

My sessions can be tailored to fit within your existing class schedule and can include a Q&A segment to address specific questions from students. I am passionate about elevating the standards of our industry and empowering future estheticians to excel in their careers.
