** 85% of our members average $20,000+ in revenue while enrolled in our program**
PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL ASK FOR PROOF OF IMPLEMENTATION IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR THE REFUND.
The tuition for SmartBeauty Pros is $297/month for as long as you'd like to stay or $4,000 for a lifetime license. We offer a 100% Money Back Guarantee and 85% of our students increase their revenue by $23,000 within one year of enrollment. Traditional MBA programs can cost anywhere from $60,000 to $120,000 or more. Plus, those business programs don’t come with a money back guarantee nor are they tailored to the beauty industry.
Our Launchpad program is specifically designed for the new and emerging beauty professional, aka side-hustlers and freelancers. Those currently in beauty school, recent grads, or struggling with a clear roadmap for their business. Our program removes the guesswork, provides a clear path and a community of experts to course correct your implementation process along the way. Our program will save you years of wasted time and potential mistakes.
Check yourself before you wreck yourself! Literally. Although this program was designed for beginners, many established beauty pros enroll to ensure they check off any foundational essentials in their business. A lot of people in the industry undergo rapid growth but lack proper development in the CORE, ATTRACTION, EXPERIENCE or RETENTION pillars of their businesses, so they enroll to strengthen those.
No. Whether you’re still in beauty school or just starting out, the lessons in Launchpad will ensure that you start off taking the right steps, or make some needed changes in your current beauty biz. We provide you with a step by step roadmap to ensure you’re growing in a sustainable way.
Beginning on the day you enroll, you have lifetime access to the program material and community. Between all of our programs, we teach a very specific $0- 1 million roadmap that puts you on track to a 7-figure business within a very specific period of time.
We recommend budgeting about 2-4 hours each week. It shakes out to about 1 hour watching video lessons, another hour reading and taking notes, and 1 hour filling in worksheets and doing the exercises that go with each lesson.
We encourage our members to work through the program during the first 3 months and spend the remaining 9 months implementing, getting feedback, growing the beauty pro levels and making changes with our guidance. We understand that life happens, so if you have to slow down, you have plenty of time to work at your own pace over the course of the 12-months.
Our Launchpad program includes 24/7 support in our private digital community, (12) monthly live Q&A strategy calls with Yliana, various laser themed workshops in our private community featuring industry experts, and quarterly office-hours where members can call in to speak with our team privately.
Our program has a money back guarantee. Over 85% of our members earn at least $23,000 in revenue during their first year with us.
We guarantee that you will make your money back within 1 year of enrollment and if you do not, after implementing all of our steps, we will gladly issue a refund, we simply ask that you prove you've implemented the work.
Our Launchpad Program is for new and emerging Beauty Pros earning $0-6k/month. It’s the premiere industry business program where we help you master business essentials and make your first $20,000 - $40,000 without working full-time.
In our Boardroom Program, we work with established Beauty Pros already earning 200k, to help them implement the systems needed to reach 500k.
Our Parlor membership provides a great start for anyone new to our network by providing essential business education and community to beauty pros.
I walked away from a corporate career in finance to turn my hobby of permanent makeup into a business and built a 7-figure beauty brand in the process. I rapidly grew to three brick & mortar locations, a team of 9, and successfully sold the business in 2019 to focus on beauty business education. I've served over 1,800 clients and coached over 200 beauty professionals across the U.S. and Europe to the $100k+/yr mark in business.
I created SmartBeauty Pros to fill the industry need of business education. Something beauty school are simply not providing. We help beauty pros make more money, compress time and grow faster with actionable tools and business knowledge.
EIGHT years ago, I was broken, tired and overwhelmed.
When I started my career in the beauty industry, I quickly realized that I was overcomplicating the process. I few months into launching, I took a step back and took a page out of my corporate experience.
Instead of trying to do all the things in just an average manner, I decided to do less things, and show up in excellence. Once I niched down, I began to see my first 5-figure months and 300K+ by year two.
"I've grown my bookings by 50% and finally hit my income goal of 8k for the month"
In the beginning, I was honestly extremely apprehensive about joining the program or spending that much money pretty much on anything. My concern was always the return on investment because I didn't have disposable income to burn. Well, I got my money’s worth and then some during the first 4 weeks of working with you. I've grown my bookings by 50% and finally hit my income goal of 8k for the month.
