BEAUTY’S IN THE HOUSE!!!


 

From a Southern California executive search firm perspective, our Beauty Biz Roundtable (BBR#3, for those in the know) is the equivalent of My Big Fat Greek Wedding!

  • Big personalities!—in the form of Thought Leaders. Some of the most influential innovators in the beauty business will take the floor.

 

  • Big ideas! Big enough for media, including The Los Angeles Times, Women’s Wear Daily, The Los Angeles Business Journal and totalbeauty.com to attend! Beauty writers and editors will be there—and you should be, too.

 

  • Big opportunities for networking! Speaking as a recruiter, I can tell you that contacts and relationships formed in this way often lead to great careers. Snacks, chat and cocktails can easily lead to: “You’re hired!”

It’s all happening this Thursday, January 27, from 5:30 – 8:30 pm at the Sheraton Delfina, Delfina Ballroom in Santa Monica. Tickets sold out a few days ago, and the place will be packed. There is a wait-list— BUT, do check back for space availability if you wish to attend and don’t have a ticket yet.

 

Just a few of BBB#3’s Thought Leaders include:

—John Heffner, President/ CEO, CND / Creative Nail Design. If you haven’t had a CND Shellac mani yet, now’s the time. Under John’s direction, CND stands its ground as an industry leader, and a style originator!

(HOT INTEL: One of the first salons to offer CND Shellac, and one of LA’s coolest: Paint Shop Beverly Hills on West 3rd Street. Ask for Julie, 323-658-1930, TOLL FREE 866-327-3407.)

Greg Sinderbrand, COO, Borba. Smart beauty biz: it oughta be a law! Building strategic retail partners is Greg’s arena, with an emphasis on business litigation and corporate transactions with multi-billion dollar organizations.

—Stephanie Paciullo, Commercial Endorsement Agent, CAA / Creative Artists Agency – Hey, it wouldn’t be a proper LA event without at least one hotshot agent in the house. She negotiates on-camera opportunities for some of the biggest names and brands in the world.

—Jill Tomandi, VP, Product Development & Innovation, Stila – Jill is the genius behind Stila’s irresistible brand-identity. Do we buy Stila product for Jill’s crazy-clever packaging? Sometimes, yes. Of course, what’s inside is great, too.

Other greats in our line-up for Thursday: Jenny Baxter/TSG Consumer Partners, Nikola Cline/JPMS, Susan Yara/PopSugar, and Stephanie Tsai/Beauty PR Executive.

 

 

A word to the wise: our BBR#4 , or next Beauty Business Roundtable, is now being planned for May. Stay tuned and book early.
