What To Expect
With 30+ years of combined experience in creating, running, and operating successful medical spa practices, our training team is eager to get you on the right track to becoming your own boss and thriving in a career in aesthetics. Throughout this course, you’ll learn the essential business basics needed to establish a strong foundation for your practice. We’ll also teach you how to legally establish your practice, from forming an LLC to understanding tax obligations, and then we will take you through the medical compliance regulations needed for aesthetics.
The better the business plan, the higher the chance for success. Building a strong business plan is a key part of this course. We will cover business plan framework, accounting, finances, and pricing structure to ensure your business will be profitable—with a sufficient margin to put you on a growth plan. A unique aspect of this course is that you will get a glimpse into our sister practice, Raven Med Spa, for real-world advice and examples along the way. You’ll also gain insights into building relationships with product vendors and sourcing high-quality supplies.
Your branding is the first thing your clients will see, and it can tell a lot about the quality of your business and services. We’ll explore branding, social media strategies, and proven marketing tactics to attract and retain clients in a competitive industry. By the end of this course, you’ll have a clear roadmap for launching and running a thriving aesthetics business. Beyond the classroom, our uplifting community is here to instill confidence in you to step into your new role of becoming your own boss.
Entrepreneurship Path & Partnerships
A part of this course is our Entrepreneurship Path & Partnerships. It is essentially just as it sounds—we partner with solo entrepreneurs. This unique aspect is not a required part of the course but rather a standing option to partner with us in kickstarting your solo aesthetics business and becoming your own boss. We’ll take you through getting set up with our preferred partner, Fresh Clinics, before matching you with a medical director, a necessary part of any aesthetics practice. In doing so, you can begin your solo entrepreneurship journey, including concierge tox, fillers, and more. Fresh Clinics also provides medical directorship, an included EMR platform, and competitively priced products. You will also be allowed the use of our state-of-the-art facilities at our sister practice, Raven Med Spa.
