Hey, what a really creative name for a hairdressers! There are many hairdressing salons with “clever” names but this has to be one of the best I have ever come across. How do people come up with such good creative ideas? Where do you get your best ideas? In the bath? The shower? Out walking? Sat in the hairdressers? How about at work? Very rarely do we get really good ideas when we are at work, which is a real concern if we want to find ways to improve our business. In the current economic climate Creativity is no longer a luxury it is a necessity for survival. If we have to rely on having a bath to get some really good ideas we are going to need an awful lot of baths!! Mind you we will be really clean!! Perhaps we could all sit on beanbags, take our shoes off and contemplate our navels and wait for the ideas to flow! Yes you are correct in thinking what a load of rubbish! Let me ask you a question, can you play golf or play the piano? If you can’t, would you like to learn? Another question for you, would you like to be creative or even more creative? Like golf or playing the piano creativity can be taught and learnt. All you need are some tools, some techniques and practice. In other words an innovators tool kit. Contact me at www.holstgroup.co.uk for more information. If I can’t make it work for you then you can have your money back (guaranteed) and you can get back into the bath! Of course you can ignore all of this and let your business “Curl up and die”! After all the media keep telling us that this is what will happen. They just hate being proved wrong, so there can’t be a better time to hit back. Oh, by the way you will find the original hairdressers I am referring to in Las Vegas.
