110: Exactly How to Specialize in a Service and Become the Go-To in Your Area For It
Description
Ever felt like you’re good at a lot of services but wish people knew you for that one thing you really love doing? In this episode, I dive into what it actually takes to become the go-to person for a specific service in your area. Whether you're itching to specialize in bridal hair, lash retention, or killer brow shaping, this one's for you. I walk you through not just the mindset shifts but the actionable steps to carve out your reputation and do it with confidence, even if you're just getting started.
I talk about how to position yourself like the expert you know you are (or want to become), how to build a reference sheet that makes content creation and marketing feel easier, and why consistency is non-negotiable even if you feel like you're shouting into the void. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to go all-in on what lights you up…this is it.

- What’s the first step to becoming known for a specific service?
- Why your social media bio matters way more than you think
- How can you stand out in saturated local markets (without dragging others down)?
- The type of content that actually builds your brand over time
