Improving The Bottom Line Of Your Spa Or Salon Business - Update And Modernize
Salons and spas looking for the competitive edge are not alone. Salon and spa owners are learning to embrace technology with online appointment scheduling and an elaborate yet not expensive Internet presence.
Salon and spa owners should spend as much time as possible on the Internet. Visiting your competitor's websites and their vendors websites should be an exercise performed at least monthly.
If you don't know what your competition is doing you are not doing all you can to remain competitive in a highly competitive industry. Customer service extends after the client leaves your establishment. Each customer should be called or contacted at least once a month just to let them know what you have new and exciting to offer them.
Modernize and update your salon and spa especially if you still do not have a website. Start making plans to have one designed that includes the following:
• Online appointment scheduling because you will save time and make more money if your clients can schedule services online.
• Offer an overview of the entire staff and the services you offer and make sure to include the price and the time it takes to perform the service.
• Videos about products, services and techniques
• Articles about hair, skin and fashion
• Products you carry in your salon or spa and products that can be drop shipped to clients should be available on your web site.
• Contact information and a map if necessary guiding clients to your establishment
• Before and after photos of your clients on your website along with references
• Your philosophy
Your website should be updated monthly because every month something new should be happening in your salon or spa. Offering something new does not mean changing anything, it means you will offer new products and services every month.
Sometimes even the smallest detail like thank you notes to clients, sending them birthday and anniversary cards will keep your clients coming back and they will bring their friends and relatives.
Modernize and update your salon's appearance. This does not mean paint if it does not need paint. Modernize and updating means making sure everything is fresh and replaced before it is worn. Even the magazines in the waiting room should be protected against wear.
Modernize and update your salon or spa by continuing your education and implement a program that provides for the continuing education of your staff. Sometimes modernizing and updating your salon or spa will mean bringing on another licensed professional. Make sure any new service provider has a client-centered attitude and who is computer and Internet literate.
Online appointment scheduling is just the beginning of modernizing and updating a salon or spa. Online appointment scheduling should be incorporated in your website. Offer Internet specials like a percentage off of service if clients use your online store or make appointments online.
To find the best web site design firm to build your online presence or to update a web site you already have, visit other salon and spa web sites. Spend some quality time visiting online with salons and spas in other countries.

Painting $19.75 The "death of painting" and its subsequent resurrection in transformed conditions is a leitmotif of the modern era. Painting's postconceptual resurgence at the start of the 1980s began a dramatic expansion of its field. If painting remains important today, it is because its contradictions have been acknowledged as artists have radically diversified the components of its production and presentation. This first anthology to focus on painting's multiple discourses over the last three decades brings together key statements, dialogues, and debates that have moved the conversation beyond the modern/postmodern dialectic while redefining the conditions necessary for an artwork to be described as "painting." The diversity of contemporary painting's meanings and practices encompasses the randomness and eclecticism associated with Web-based creation. Although for many the presence of paint endures, others have argued for painting to be classed not as a material but as a philosophical category. Compiled by a leading critic of painting who actively participated in these conversations while also teaching young artists in the studio classroom, this collection ranges widely, to reflect the diversity of ways in which painting continues to be investigated and evaluated in studios, exhibition spaces, and the marketplace of ideas. These writings, statements, and interviews reflect ongoing debates and reignite questions for an as yet unimagined future of painting. |

What is Painting?: Representation and Modern Art $21.23 "What is art? Is that art?" At the end of the twentieth century, these questions continue to provoke and to bedevil discussion. The uncertainty that prompts them can be productive for artists, who may thrive on such a state of tension. Yet uncertainty can also shade into the suspiciousness with which many people approach the work of those artists. Reasonable questions deserve articulate answers, and Julian Bell provides them in this lucid, straightforward, and often challenging book. In the process he offers an incisive guide to artistic thought in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and to the complexities of contemporary theory. Among the many fields of activity covered by the word "art, " Bell, himself a painter, focuses on "flat things" -- the paintings that modern theories seek to explain. The questions he addresses include: -- What is painting? Does anything unite these objects we call paintings? -- What happened to the idea of representation in "modern art"? What has caused the vast changes in painting over the last two centuries? -- What does the ancient practice of painting amount to in today's world at the turn of the twenty-first century? Bell writes with a wide-ranging curiosity about what other painters have produced in the last two hundred years, giving fresh accounts of the most influential works and introducing many painters who may lie outside fashionable canons. What Is Painting? is a book for everyone interested in making sense of modern art and of the cultural debates it provokes. |

Modern Painting (Dodo Press) $16.02 George Augustus Moore (1852-1933) was an Irish novelist, short story writer, poet, art critic, memoirist and dramatist. His first book, a collection of poems called The Flowers of Passion, had appeared in 1878 and a second collection, Pagan Poems, followed in 1881. His first novel, A Modern Lover (1883), was banned in England because of its, for the times, explicit portrayal of the amorous pursuits of its hero. His next book, A Mummer's Wife (1885) is widely recognized as the first major novel in the realist style in the English language. Other realist novels by Moore from this period include Esther Waters (1894), the story of an unmarried housemaid who becomes pregnant and is abandoned by her footman lover, and A Drama in Muslin (1886), a satiric story of the marriage trade in Anglo-Irish society. His 1887 novel A Mere Accident is an attempt to merge his symbolist and realist influences. He also published a collection of short stories: Celibates (1895). In 1913, he traveled to Jerusalem to research background for his novel The Brook Kerith: A Syrian Story (1916). |
