I can not believe it is already March, it suddenly hit me that I have to make my travel arrangements and finish the last touches for the lecture I will be doing at the Day Spa Expo in Las Vegas. Taking place from March 15 to 17 at the Las Vegas Hilton Convention Center.
This year everyone is being very careful about which shows, expos and seminars they attend. This is true not only for vendors but for Spa owners, Management and Technicians, everyone is on a tighter budget and we have to make careful decisions about where we spend our money. Unfortunately at times like this is when we tend to make the mistake of reducing training expenses which is not necessarily a savings in the bigger picture. As we know without continuous education and training we can not deliver the level of services that our customer demand; we can not stay on top of the latest trends, legalities or industry news. Attending a trade show that delivers a quality driven education program in addition to having the opportunity to network and see new products and trends should continue to be a priority in where we spend our money. In the long run this investment will keep us in the leading edge, of course that only applies if you attend and then put into practice the things you learn.
These are the main reasons as to why I recommend the Day Spa Expo and why it continues to be one of the trade events I look forward to attending every year. The Business Forum that the Day Spa Association puts together is one of a kind; with three different tracks and topics for all levels of Spa Owners and Management, in addition to top industry speakers. Plus with all the depressing news we are inundated with every day, we all need a little fun and this show happens in Vegas! I saw some great deals for travel packages to Sin City and you still have time to plan your trip and sign up for the Business Forum. For more information on the class schedule and the trade show go to www.dayspaexpo.com
On Monday, March 16 at 2:00 pm do stop by the "Start Smart" track to participate in my 'Interviewing Know-How' workshop. Where "in an interactive presentation the attendees will learn industry specific methods on employee interviewing. They will learn the step by step process of interviewing and specific questions for each Spa and Salon position.
Do make your plans and I'll see you in Vegas!
Stay tuned.........
