Had my first client from the ads today!!!  Found out that I'm not as prepared as I thought I was, still need to get a move on my menus and flyers..  I am absolutely loving this colder weather!  Especially after the massage and having to keep the room warm enough for the client.  It was super refreshing to walk out and hit that glorious wall of cold.  Anyhow, Cam gave a great idea for more advertising and I think in about a month I'm going to do it.  She said I should write to Phil Luciano a reporter for the local paper and invite him in for a cut and a massage and of course a write up on the "Movement!"  I told her we are going to have a great Man Spa, but we both agreed not to call it that for obvious reasons, teeheehee. Also because women definitly need to come in for massages.  Have a great night all, my little one's fever went up tonite so looks like I will be home tomorrow.. Stay well and send the "Movement" some positive juju...

Had a productive day today, although not at the shop necessarily!   I did get my cabinet organized and ordered some more coupon ads.  So I officially have ads through Jan. 2011 going out in 5 papers!  WOOHOO.  I'm getting excited, I have a real good feeling about this, especially since I was just jokin with Cam about getting my license and moving in!  That was until CAT gave me the boot.  Anyhow this all came together to smoothly for me not to think that we are going to be a great success in the Barber/Massage business. Will post some pics this weekend hopefully.  Thank you to my 3 new followers!!!  Have a great night...

Went to the shop today and hung with Cam..  No business, but I can't have high expectations, I know these things take time and patience.  We have an ad running in the guides for all the surrounding towns that starts today and I am going to have some coupons in the local paper next month.  Hope to get my flyers out soon and that will help also..  I give a discount for veterans, active military, police officers, fire fighters, teachers and disability recipients.  $40 for a full hour massage, so if you know anyone in need send em my way, you get a discount for referrals!!!

Hi everyone!  I am new to this blog stuff and most of you that know me well enough know that with computer stuff it doesn't matter if I'm old at it, I'm still pretty bad at it!  That's why I have always worked in fields that don't require a whole lot of computer hooplah. Anyhow my wonderful sister-n-law Cam set this up for me and became my first follower!  WOOHOO I have a follower!  Even though I have done a real sucky job following hers.  But the truth is these things scare the dickens out of me.  The reason for my blog of course is to get the word out on my new business.  I received my license in Therapeutic Massage over the summer and decided not to go the spa way but to rent the spare room in Camila's Barber Shop, thank you to Dan Davidson the building owner for allowing me to rennovate and make it a functioning massage room.  Cam and I are officially starting the " Anti-Spa," movement.  Cam is a true blue barber. Mens cuts only, no frills ( other than the super fantastic straight razor shaving station she has! ) She cuts womens hair as long as you want a mans cut!  I am a Massage Therapist, no wraps or scrubs, beauty treatments or pedicures.  I want to help your aches and pains, relax your muscles and brain, relieve your stress and help you take a step towards well.
