Summary
In this episode of the Beauty Growth Academy Unfiltered, I talk with Eri ka owner of 'Erika Beauty Derby' a thriving salon where she provides hair, beauty, SPMU & more. Erika's beauty business journey is not typical. She moved to the UK at just 18 years old with £200 to her name, no connections and barely speaking any English. No safety net. No clear plan. Just a decision that she was going to make her beauty business work… no matter what. In this episode we talk about what it really looked like for her in those early days… working multiple jobs, starting from zero, building a client base from scratch and doing whatever it took to survive. From handing out flyers and doing treatments for £20, to rebuilding her business again after relocating & gaining over 460 google reviews… Erika shares the raw, unfiltered truth of what it takes to create success when you have nothing to fall back on. This Podcast is honest, emotional and incredibly inspiring. If you've ever thought growing your beauty business is... 'too hard,” then this episode is your reminder of what’s possible when you refuse to give up… For More Information About My Memberships, Podcast & More! https://linktr.ee/alyshabradleycoaching Mentioned in this episode: Ready to stop feeling stuck in your beauty business?
