86. The Uber of Lashes is Here and Erin Branche Comes on Our Show To Talk About It

One of the exciting parts of our job is meeting new people who are doing interesting things, and today we are excited to have Erin Branche of Lash Bash come on our podcast to talk about her new venture. She has created an app that connects lash artists with clients who want to have services in their homes. She is starting this service in the fall and will be launching in her home town of Philidelphia first. BTW...if you are in the Philly area and are looking for work you should check out her service. It might be a great way to launch your lash career. One of the reasons we ask lash entrepreneurs to come on our show is to hopefully inspire you to think outside the box. Most last artists think that the next thing one can do after doing lashes for a while is start a product line or become a trainer...but there are a lot more opportunities out there that. I always tell people to try to find something you are passionate about and then see if there is any way for you to combine your lash expertise with it. For me, I've produced a lot of events over my lifetime so it made sense or me to produce our lash conference. In Erin's case, it was to create an app that helps lash artists. I hope after you listen to this episode, you'll start to think of what you offer to the lash world.
