Welcome back to our series on owning this year as a freelance makeup artist.
In parts 1 & 2 of the series, I shared actionable tips for setting goals and creating a solid plan to advance your career as a freelance MUA.
Today, we’re diving into part 3 of the series where I’ll guide you on how to execute those goals and plans.
Let's dive in.
Tip #1 – Create a Detailed Schedule
Freelance life can be quite chaotic, but having a well-organized schedule is like having a magic wand that brings order to the chaos. That’s why I included this free scheduling guide as a giveaway in this blog. It’s going to help you stay organized and plan out your appointments ahead of time, to ensure you meet your clients' expectations.
Tip #2 – When Clients Reach Out, Respond Promptly.
Responding promptly not only shows you're on top of your game but also sets a positive tone right from the start. And when it comes time for contracts, make sure to cover all the bases: timing, location, and anything else to ensure you and your client are on the same page.
Tip #3 – Make Every Consultation Count
Consultations aren't just about makeup; they're about connection. Listen, visualize, and time it right – your clients will thank you for it. Remember, every consultation is a step closer to makeup mastery.
Tip #4 – Be Punctual & Prepared
Whether it's a wedding, a special occasion, or a photoshoot, you always want to show up early. It gives you an extra 15-30 minutes to set up, ensuring a stress-free start.
And here's a pro tip: schedule buffer time. Things happen, and you want to be prepared for unexpected surprises.
Tip #5 – Showcase Your ArtistryÂ
Fast forward to the post-event glow. You've nailed the makeup, and now it's time to showcase your artistry to the world. So be sure to take before-and-after pictures, and let them show off your artistry on your social media.
Tip #6 – Evaluate
After each week’s event, make time to evaluate the past week, plan your content, and set the tone for the days ahead.Â
Another pro tip: On the first Monday of every month, take a moment to glance at the full month ahead. Any personal events, weddings, or holidays coming up? Plan for them in advance to avoid last-minute stress.
Want to see me delve into the details of each tip and explain how they all fit together?
