Episode 235 hosts Kian Moini (Entrepreneur and the owner of 'Q-Tox' based in Sydney, Australia)
We hosted Kian way back in episode 143, almost two years ago to the day prior to his clinic opening. We re-visit what his goals were for his clinic and learn how he has navigated the challenges of the competitive Sydney aesthetic market. We learn about what worked, what needed tweaking and get an insight into how understanding your CRM data can drive your overall strategy.
In 'The Business of Injecting' episodes we host injectors and clinic owners to discuss all aspects of the business side of their clinic. We analyse their financial struggles and challenges, difficult decisions, friction points, staffing, hiring, firing and other topics relevant for aesthetic business owners.
