Nicole Manion, The Beauty Behind: Running a Beauty Business in 2023
Nicole was born and raised in Bracebridge, Ontario where she owns two successful businesses to this day.Growing up, Nicole was a very driven, athletic individual that did not let any barriers stand in her way. One of those barriers being Dyslexia which deterred her from attending college/university right out of high school. Instead, Nicole took part in many pageants including Miss Universe Canada. It was through pageantry that Nicole realized she could turn that same passion and drive that she had within her to help others. The beauty industry soon became her main focus. Nicole attended Rinaldi College Of Aesthetics in Barrie, Ontario where she graduated in November of 2013. Soon after, began Nicole’s biggest leap of faith when she opened her very own spa named Muskoka Aesthetics in 2015. Nicole being the entrepreneur she is, saw a hole in the market for affordable, high quality, Canadian lash extension brands and alas, Muskoka Aesthetics sister company - Miskoka Beauty was born in 2019! Keep an eye out for Nicole’s enthusiasm, goofy side and/or business-related advice on our social media platforms!LINKS:Miskoka Beauty Lash & Brow Growth Serum:https://www.miskoka.com/products/lash-and-brow-growth-serumPROMO CODE: Beautybrandpodcast15To save 15% OFF Squarespace Everything you need to grow online.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Alicia Soulier, The Beauty Behind: Salon Scale
From award winning stylist to award winning entrepreneur, Alicia Soulier hasdedicated over 16 years to the beauty industry. A former salon owner, Alicia noticed a leak in her business that was directly affecting her bottom line: the color bar. Without the proper technology to account for the cost of hair color, many color sessions were walking out the door unpaid for. This discovery led to the creation of SalonScale, an advanced hair salon back bar software that has now earned Alicia the title of Tech Founder.Alicia took this title, and grew SalonScale from an idea to a$1M ARR SaaS company in just three years. Today, she is making massive impact to not only the 3000 and counting salons that use the tool, but by also using the technology to disrupt the hair salon supply chain worldwide.Follow Her on Instagram:@salonscalehttps://www.instagram.com/salonscale/Visit her Website:https://salonscale.com/ Peach's Make more sales with Peach's Squarespace plugins.Goli Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies Taste the Apple.
