As a student just testing the waters with my toes, I have just recently begun to speak to people about my studying to be a massage therapist. I have always been outgoing and after 8 years of traveling (all over the country in a brightly painted scho…

*nod* In the past, my technique has simply been to say, "Hey, come in the room and talk with me about what we're gonna do in session while I change over the table." It's never seemed to bother anyone. What's also bizarre is that down in Denver (wher…

Hi! I use Facebook, Myspace, Twitter and blogspot, for keep in contact with my client and generate new ones. The client like to read about massage and new specials. Take care!

I have watched our mutual bud Joel Tull on FB posting cancellations and openings...I swear that man is the Energizer Bunny. He'll post something and five minutes later it's gone!

So being a first time Small business Facebook user, do you suggest a Facebook page for your business instead of a Facebook group?

Oh yeah. Youtube is the bomb. We started doing youtube videos for students/grads who wanted a review (e.g., headache routines, Swedish gymnastics, seated massage, how to position and drape a pregnant client). They LOVE them Apparently the public…

Using YouTube to Promote Your Business

You may have noticed recently that I've been adding various videos to my blog here. Why? Because one of the coolest social media and guerrilla marketing tools out there is YouTube. From uploading videos of your own business, staff or services to showing demonstrations, snippets of classes you've taught or even just sharing other people's videos, videos help get people involved in your site, blog or other social sites very effectively. They also help you to educate and connect with your potential… Continue

The Wounded Healer - Watch this video:-)

Throughout the years of receiving massage, bodywork, energy work, facials and other spa treatments, I have had some exceptional experiences from some truly gifted people. I've also met a number of people in the spa and healing arts industry (and the fringes) that have touted themselves as "healers" - a term and practice that immediately turns me off and makes me question their authenticity. Worse still, some of these folks wear their own pain on their sleeve making it abundantly clear to anyone… Continue

5 Ways to Make the Most of Your Current Clients

Lots of massage therapists I know talk about the need for getting new clients into their business. They feel that they just aren't seeing enough new faces in their doors or bodies on their tables. Perhaps the advertising and marketing vehicles they are using to attract new business aren't very effective. Or maybe the business' current clients aren't sending enough referrals their way. But while both of these situations are quite likely and deserve some exploration, I think it is really vital to… Continue

Hi Felicia,
This is my first day on the site so I thought I would meet some new friends and do a little networking. I see you have a very short list of modalities that you work with and you are very active on the group forums. Let me ask you, What is your primary focus? Massage or something else?

Great to see you here! We're going to have fun with this site!
