I’m off to Croatia, but first... here’s what you need to know from this week’s spa convention!
Hiiiiii,
I’m off to Croatia today!!! YAYYYYY!! 🏖️🍹 But before I hop on that plane and soak up the sun, I just had to share some MAJOR highlights from this week’s World Spa & Wellness Convention in Kyalami, Johannesburg. ✈️
Over 22 amazing speakers took the stage to drop some serious wisdom bombs on the wellness world. There’s waaaay too much to unpack in one go, but here’s your bite-sized, top 10 takeaway list—guaranteed to spark some inspo for you!
Top 10 Conference Highlights You Can't Miss:
- Sound Therapy is the new must-have – Forget that one-size-fits-all spa music. The future is all about personalized sound therapy for treatments!
- LED for Full Body Therapy – The next big add-on for massages. LED isn't just for faces anymore!
- Menopause Treatments – If you’re not tapping into this MASSIVE market, you’re missing out! Menopause-specific services are going global.
- Simplify, Simplify, Simplify! – Less is more with your treatment menu. Keep it streamlined and amp up the add-ons instead.
- Staff Retention is KEY – It's time to focus on your team’s well-being and growth. Happy, appreciated staff = happy clients!
- Memberships are the New Loyalty Cards – We got some serious insight into how to set up memberships that lock in clients for life.
- Aesthetics in the Spa World – It’s happening! We learned how seamlessly aesthetics and wellness can go hand in hand.
- Digital Marketing – Double Your Revenue – The future is digital, and we heard some killer strategies to make your online presence boost those profits.
- Content is King – Authentic content is what sells now. Gone are the days of perfectly curated feeds; real is what resonates!
- Pregnancy & Motherhood – Don't forget this important client group! We learned how to cater to their specific needs like never before.
✨ There was SO much more, but these are the highlights! My brain is still buzzing from two days of non-stop growth and learning.
