Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Amli Canseco. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Amli, appreciate you joining us today. Can you recount a time when the advice you provided to a client was really spot on? (Please note this response is for education/entertainment purposes only and shouldn’t be construed as advice for the reader)
The best advice I always let my clients know is that their skincare journey is going to start from the very bottom and it will take time to achieve their skin goals, but the outcome is going to be AMAZING! Your skin will not clear overnight, but with me by your side and guiding my clients in the right directions we can get some GREAT results!
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
I’ve always loved everything beauty and of course skincare. As someone who has suffered through acne personally, I wanted to get into a field that helped others feel comfortable in their own skin. I went to an Esthetics trade school to become a Licensed Esthetician and pursue a career that I know I would love!
It definitely wasn’t a smooth road for me. After graduating high school, I went straight to college and studied to work in the medical field. As I was in college, I kept not only switching majors, but I felt hopeless. I wasn’t passionate about what I was studying and I felt stuck. It was hard telling my parents about my choice to leave college to pursue my real passion, but in the end, I had their support. With hard work, determination, and a goal I wanted to achieve, I overcame all the obstacles I had to face.
A Licensed Esthetician specializes in the health and beauty of a person’s skin. I love talking to clients about their skin and what goals they would like to achieve when they come into the spa. I customize each client with the best facial to fit their skin type and advice on how to keep up with their skin after their treatment. On top of doing facials at the spa, I am a Licensed Laser Technician, so I do Laser Hair Removal and IPL Facials as well!
I am beyond proud of how much I have learned in the beauty industry and that I am trained in so many services that I wasn’t set out to be introduced to. In previous jobs that I had before my current, I was stuck in a bubble and never had the chance to expand my horizons. I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have had!
Other than training/knowledge, what do you think is most helpful for succeeding in your field?
One main thing that has helped me in my career is the support of my family and friends. It’s hard when you are trying to figure out what you want to do with your life right after high school. I had many people counting on me to be in the medical field, but they can tell I wasn’t happy with that.
Each person in my life has guided me and pushed me even harder than I push myself to the very best in what I do and I appreciate it so much! It is so important to surround yourself with nothing but positive vibes to reach your ultimate goals!
What’s been the most effective strategy for growing your clientele?
The most effective way to grow your clientele is honestly word of mouth and posting on social media! Word of my mouth is one of the best things that will help your business grow for sure! Also, I’ve noticed an increase on our spa’s Instagram page with us posting something every day mainly when we post a reel video with funny audio people love seeing that and can relate to us as well! You can always start by posting once a week and then gradually post maybe even 3 times a week instead of every day to build up your following!
