" Stef has the uncanny ability to understand your businesses needs and then set a plan for successful execution. We can confidently say that she played a significant role in helping us save our business.
She goes above and beyond for the team and truly cares about the success of our business. In just the first two years we hired 56 stylists working with Stef.
- Helen Miller (Rochester, NY)
"Stef has been a resource, an encourager, a cheerleader of our brand, and her work with us has helped modernize our recruiting efforts and propel them to reach our goals.
We attribute an influx of quality candidates and new guests to these initiatives.
- Debra Penzone (Columbus, OH)
"We’re a highly successful 40-year-old brand. We already have robust systems in place and the financial flexibility to have a full-time recruiter. It takes an exceptional consultant to move the needle for a salon of our size. She was able to breathe new life into old systems and show us what was no longer working and since starting our work we have hired 55 interns."
- Lucas Council (Atlanta, GA)
