[Podcast Ep] Unlocking the Power of Mobile Spa Pop-Ups


Reader, if you’re just starting out as an esthetician, building a client base can feel overwhelming. One great way to gain experience, build relationships, and get your name out there is by hosting a spa pop-up.

Pop-ups give you the chance to:

  • Showcase your skills in a fun, low-pressure environment
  • Collaborate with local businesses or events
  • Get face time with potential clients who may book with you later

But here's the thing: just throwing together a pop-up isn’t enough—you need a thoughtful strategy to make it successful. In my latest podcast episode, I’m breaking down everything you need to know:

  • How to find the right location
  • What services to offer
  • Tips for promoting your event so people actually show up

Whether you're planning your first pop-up or looking to level up your next one, this episode is packed with actionable advice.

I can’t wait to hear about your pop-up success stories. You’ve got this!

To your success, 💖

A Facebook post from the speed networking event I...

But that’s not all… I’m thrilled to announce our amazing co-hosts for this event! E'toshia McFarland (@facesbyetosh) – My Esty-bestie from South Carolina! She'll be speaking at the IECSC show so naturally I had to ask her to co-host with me!...
