If you thought there would be little overhead as an esthetician, you were sadly mistaken. Our field requires us to spend money on products, or equipment, or even washing our towels.
Opportunity Cost
As business owners, we spend countless hours and dollars on improving everything from our store front to our brains. That is why California Skincare has gone above and beyond to help estheticians continue their education by offering FREE classes about our products. This is an opportunity to strengthen your knowledge of our products without spending more money. You are already spending so much money on:
- Average $20 of product per treatment (this varies per treatment type)
- Equipment averages $200-$50,000
- LED $2,500
- Steamer $500
- Bed $1,500
- Microdermabrasion $3,000 (depending on unit)
- Laundering towels can range from $0.05 to $0.25 per towel
- Networking groups are typically free, but there is the cost of food and travel
- National and local tradeshow tickets average $150 plus traveling expenses
- Classes can range from $25+
So, we have decided to give back to you by providing you with reliable and useful information in 20-minute sessions.
Bite Sized Lessons
Why are we giving you this information in small and easily digestible chunks? Well, because we were in your shoes once. In 1989, when we started our business, the information wasn’t as readily available to everyone, so now we want everyone to have access to it. We also value your time. Aside from your brain and hands, your time is your most valuable resource. Set strong boundaries with your time, because keeping your sanity is essential to a successful business.
Estheticians spend so much time learning, cleaning, organizing, designing displays, and writing business plans. However, most of your time should be focused on you and your family. California Skincare Supply is a small family-owned and – operated business, so we understand the distinction between time at work and time at home. We ease the amount of time you spend at work, so you can enjoy the time you spend at home.
