Skin care industry begins targeting men

Spa Industry Events

The Hartford Courant

.

Soccer fans might have been excited when it was announced that David Beckham would be goig to the United States to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy. But nobody was cheering louder than the executives in the fashion and beauty industries.

.

Beckham could be a considerable force, especially in the men’s grooming sector, which already is experiencing tremendous growth (worldwide sales rose from $26.3 billion in 2005 to $29.7 billion in 2006).

.

The term metrosexual, for whom Beckham was the poster boy, may be dead, but the man who cares about his skin, his shave and his wardrobe is not.

.

Now, more than ever, men feel that it is important to take care of their skin,” said Oneeka Botu, director of skin-care marketing for Clarins. “Today’s man more than ever is more aware of how he looks and wants to look. Also, men have discovered what women have known all along — that you’ve got to take care of your skin if you want to look well-groomed.”

.

Companies making men’s skin-care and grooming products have kicked into high gear. Men who want to erase undereye circles, plump up fine lines and reduce pore size now don’t have to filch from their girlfriend’s or wife’s medicine cabinet. Companies such as L’Oreal, Clarins, Kiehl’s, Shiseido, Clinique, Lab Series for Men, Elemis, Anthony Logistics, Jack Black, Zirh, Sharps, Nickel, Molton Brown and Dior Homme have lines and products targeted to the XY set.

.

The men’s grooming category is growing at an extremely fast pace with new men’s skin-care lines constantly being developed,” said Rene Shepherd, men’s skin-care merchant for Sephora. “Although shave still appears to be the No. 1 category, we have seen an increase in more specialized skin-care products for face, eyes and body. Products targeted to specific needs, such as razor bumps, are also proving to be very successful.”

.

Men are growing more educated about grooming products and sophisticated in choices for their beauty needs.

.

It’s growing. By some estimates, the product side of the business is growing twice as fast as the women’s side, albeit off a much lower base,” said John Esposito, co-founder of Truman’s Gentlemen’s Groomers in New York. “Men, especially our clients, are buying better-quality product than they did in the past. They are starting to realize that there is a difference between soap on a rope and a high-quality cleanser.”

.

Not just smarter, men also are getting more experimental when it comes to grooming, Shepherd said. “Skin care has become such a huge focus in the beauty world, and because of the serious nature, men are not as embarrassed about purchasing these sorts of protective products,” she said. “It also seems as though men are becoming a bit braver in their purchasing habits, especially since the emergence of metrosexuals.”

.

Clarins monitors and analyzes what men are buying in order to stay on top of the business. The company has seen a huge jump in facial care, especially lip products, toners, clarifiers and anti-aging treatments..

.

I think that men were experimenting in the early 2000s when there was a major focus on the men’s beauty business,” Botu said. “Today, a lot of men have discovered what they like and what works for them and are buying those products.”

.

But it’s not just younger bucks like Becks who are taking care of their skin. As men age, they are more likely to invest in more and better grooming products, Esposito said. “One of the biggest drivers behind the boom is the baby boomer generation. They are fitter and living longer. But with a longer, healthier life comes the need to work longer, and many of them actually have to date at later ages than they ever expected,” he said. “Hence, the basic survival of the fittest response kicks in. Looking good is a competitive advantage.”

It’s About Using and Finding Proven Strategies

Spa Industry Events

As you may or not know… my team, and I (John Uhrig – Marketing Director - Monochrome Marketing Solutions) have just returned from our Spa and Salon Marketing Super Conference with 70+ fantastic attendees in Seattle, WA USA. (check us out, right in the middle of everything).Spa Marketing Conference
.
Though still doing all the follow up, bringing on new clients and a bunch of other stuff from this action packed trip, the office has been buzzing with energy as we share with the remainder of the team everything that happened during the Conference. Some highlights or ‘Oh! WOW’ moments included:
.
- Rita Dominelli sharing the best in practice staff training and staff motivation techniques. Unveiling the proven customer service techniques salons and spas should be deploying… amid gasps of realization from the audience that they are not doing this! Rita is a great speaker and brought a wisdom to the conference (Running a TOP esthetician college since 1979 helps!) that salon and day spa owners should aspire to!
.
Massage Marketing Conference
.
- Client and Inner Circle member Dr. Tim Reilly (wife Kanna was present as well… the action behind the marketing) bravely standing up in front of the audience and sharing how they brought their business from the verge of closing 6 months ago… and by using, implementing and taking ACTION with our materials they are now generating $42,000 per month and on track to make $500,000 this year! All from an 800 sq foot business.
.
- The Hot Seat Q&A Session, one of the more popular parts of the day when the entire audience was invited to come to the stage, microphone in hand and ask their burning question of the experts and the entire audience in the room… questions which included marketing, policies, staff, commission structures, procedures, and sales.
.
- The intimate detailed oriented private consultations… staff members (Robert & Bosco) both internet marketing and marketing experts, revealed one-on-one to attendees, strategies and insight on better and more effective marketing. Plus, entire website critiques done live on individuals websites (normally valued at $450) but they both did them gladly for free.
.
- Oh! And let’s not forget the $14,000++ in prizes we gave away. Some people will be enjoying 4 nights, 5 day stays in spots like Las Vegas or San Diego on us!
.
Salon Marketing Conference
.
I feel privileged that these genuine and hard working salon and day spa professionals and owners took the time from their week to attend our conference. We had an amazing day and from the comments we’ve been getting it seems that everyone had some fantastic ideas and breakthroughs during the day.
.
Here’s what a few of the attendees wrote to tell us:
.
John was an excellent speaker; he was able to keep my interest the whole day.
Janie Botting
.
Came to get some marketing ideas to expand my business… I found some great things, and easy things… that were a no brainer that I could implement right away! I wish I had thought of them first but I didn’t. I like to get the experience from people who know about a subject more than I do. I like to surround myself with individuals who have greater knowledge than I do… it certainly helps my business.

The DISCIPLINE that Most Salon & Day Spa Owners Won’t Employ

Spa Industry Events

Dear Salon and Day Spa Professional,
.
The scenes below are from some of our Road to Riches Salon & Spa Marketing Super Conferences over the past year or so.
Look closely… what do YOU see?
.
Super Marketing Conference
.
On the surface, it looks nothing more than bunches of people sitting in a room. Oh no, it’s far more than that. What you are looking at is a rare breed indeed. You’re looking at a representative sample of the TOP 2% of beauty & spa industry professionals.
.
How do I know this? Because 98% of the owners of businesses in the hair & spa industries never, ever bother to acquire the education necessary to drag themselves clear of the drudgery and fear of living week to week, always struggling, barely earning themselves a wage - more often than not paying themselves a fraction of what they’re paying their staff.
.
And in many cases, finally giving up and closing the doors.
.
I mention this only because on Monday, April 21, in Seattle, Washington, another representative sampling of that top 2% of Salon & Day Spa owners will be gathering for the 2nd ‘Road to Riches’ Super Conferences of 2008 in North America.
.
They will be there to further their education, find out what really gets customers through the door, what really makes people spend more with you than they’ve ever done before, what really motivates staff to achieve…
.
And this information is nothing like what you will hear at ANY other so-called ‘professional development’ event, ANY trade show, ANY ‘expo.’
.
So, if you have not booked already, if you live within flying, driving - or CRAWLING - distance of Seattle, there’s a HANDFUL of tickets left for the event. The Seattle, conference room is 92% booked as of today.
.
1. For Seattle conference tickets, call: The Ticket Hotline 24hrs at 1.604.850.3416.
2. Or visit and place your order online: www.spamarketingtools.com/superconference.html
.
The choice is yours…
.
Tickets are a ridiculously cheap $147 including all day refreshments, AND morning snacks.
.
Oh! We’ll also be doing private consultations… so bring any current promotions, marketing or your website and we’ll critique them for you live on the spot!
.
I hope to meet and see you there!
.
John Uhrig
Marketing Director
Monochrome Marketing Solutions
.
P.S. We’ll also be giving away up to 25 (5 Day & 4 Night Getaway Prize Packages) at our conference April 21st in Seattle as prize draws. Getaways to… Western destinations like Reno, Lake Tahoe, Durango, Pagosa, Sedona, Anaheim and Las Vegas. Approx retail value per prize is $248 to $563 depending on location.
.
That’s up to $14,075.00 in prizes we’ll be giving away… although only registered attendees are eligible to win!

Hair, Day Spa and Beauty Super Conference

Spa Industry Events

Salon & Day Spa Owner ‘Road to Riches’ Marketing and Business Conference
.
Your exact roadmap to business profits…
.
Sometimes you need to step outside the box, take a chance, and try something new if you really want to set a new course and impact your destiny.
.
And that’s exactly the kind of opportunity I’m offering you NOW…
.
What if I said you could learn Intense, Exhilarating, Brand New Marketing & Business Building Strategies you need to know to grow your own booming salon or day spa business and achieve your financial dreams — all for next to no financial investment — in a mere 8 hours???
.
Well, you might say I’m crazy. You might even say I’m trying to rip you off. But you’d be wrong.
.
Because on Saturday, February 16th, 2008, that’s what my team and I want to teach you.

If you join us in Vancouver, we’ll show you exactly how to use our proven “marketing strategies” to achieve your OWN success within your business.
.
This is the same Marketing, System, Tools, Strategies and Action Plans ordinary people - like YOU - have used and achieved extraordinary results - FAST! No better way of implementing these with SPEED and ACCURACY than seeing and hearing it for yourself!
.
(And many of these people had little to no marketing skills when they first started out!)
.
You know how so many salon and spa owners are tearing their own hair out with frustration at marketing that just doesn’t work… while they struggle to pay their staff wages, their product suppliers, their rent…. and never even pay themselves a penny?
.
You might feel like this from time to time… sick and tired of making the staff happy, making sure they got paid, while you’re always left with the ‘ball in the air’… like you are working for them, not them working for you.
.
Plus, I’ll bet you’re an ‘advertising victim’, spending thousands of dollars on advertising and marketing, then sitting by the phone… almost willing it to ring… and being constantly disappointed with your results!
.
This is your chance to learn “Real” marketing that can lead you to “BUSINESS FREEDOM or from WAGE SLAVERY… The CHOICE Is Yours… You Can Either Be Green with ENVY or Simply Copy the Stunning Success of Other Salon and Spa Business Owners!”
.
So again, this is your invitation to Awaken the Business Genius Inside You By Investing ONE Full Profit-Provoking Day at The Salon and Day Spa ‘Road to Riches’ Business & Marketing Super Conference in Vancouver.
.
Finally, You Will Discover Radical, Tough Minded Success Philosophies, Money-Making Mindset, Belief Systems, Business Thinking and Advanced Marketing Tactics…
.
NOW… If you think our 8-hour effective marketing “crash course” is going to be super expensive, prepare for a shock…

CHINA SPA INDUSTRY AND NEWS
.
From authentic Hainan Island and Yunnan to chic Shanghai and Beijing, the China spa business has been brought forth to a higher level, thanks to the publicity and reputation established by the foreign operators and the Chinese’ new wealth and awareness of wellness.
.
Spa business is making big in China, with its ancient tradition of massage, bathing and seeking Taoist harmony & balance. Foreign spa operators are now actively diving in, increasing and expanding with the flow. Maintaining Health and wellness is a necessity for everyone and the Spa business, having the full comprehension of this concept, has become a thriving industry in China. A huge country with 1.3 billion people to be pampered; and spa industry experts see a great opportunity for the influx of great wealth for their investment. Echoing the Manchester cotton manufacturers of the 19th century, they imagine that if even 1% of the population gets one spa treatment a year for RMB300 (US$37) that’s RMB3.9bn (US$480m) annually.
.
The spa boom is fueled by the expansion of foreign businesses and the influx of foreign spa professionals into China, the growing tourism with increasing numbers of hotels, and the increase of wealthier Chinese professionals. The 2008 Olympics is also a major trigger responsible for the booming of Spa industry with increase number of Chinese placing higher awareness on sports and fitness; voicing down to health and wellness. The Olympic Games would bring forth more hotels, and to-date, Spas can be commonly seen in them, including basic massage services through to high-end aroma therapies. Independent existing spa operators in China are now planning to increase their dimension and new operators are flooding in to have a share of the rich industry.
.
Reliable statistics on facilities and clientele are rare in the Mainland with numerous major spas, medium-sized day spas and up to hundreds of thousands of massage parlors and beauty parlors offering facials. However, Linda Au, the director of sales and marketing for Spa Resources Asia Ltd of Hong Kong; a trading, promotional and consulting organization, estimated that there are about 40 brand-name spas in China in more than 75 outlets today, up from about 25 brand-name spas in 2003. Today, 32% of them are in Beijing and 36% in Shanghai; 70% of them are within hotels.
.
“The spa concept in China is still at the baby stage,” Au said, adding there’s a lot of room for growth and new concepts to be implemented. Industry experts and operators predict China will eventually become one of the world’s top spa destinations. (Source: China Economic Review)
.
It is your final chance to get involved in the making of the world’s top spa destinations…
