March 13th, 2012: Beauty Biz Roundtable BBR7 – “What Inspires You”

By Romina on March 14, 2012

Beauty Industry West joined Mazur Group for the first ever co-hosted Beauty Biz Roundtable at the Sheraton Delfina in Santa Monica.

The Beauty Biz Roundtable BBR series brings together 100 Mid to Senior Level Beauty Executives in a roundtable format that fosters networking and idea sharing. This is NOT a lecture or panel discussion.

BBR7 kicked off with a cocktail hour for open networking followed by a Keynote Address from Suzi Weiss Fischmann, Executive Vice President & Artistic Director of OPI Products, Inc., who spoke about “What’s Your Inspiration.”

“People always ask me where I get my inspiration to create season after season of successful OPI Nail Lacquer collections.  Over the last 23 years, I have created literally thousands of nail lacquer shades; and many memorable shade names. One of my personal favorites is I’m Suzi, and I’m a Chocoholic,” Weiss-Fischmann revealed during her Keynote Address. Suzi’s inspiration? Her mother and daughter.

Attendees then sat down in 3 roundtables with distinguished Thought Leaders including:

  • Jennifer Parks, Senior Vice President of  National Accounts at Sexy Hair Concepts: “From 1 Big Red Can to a 6 Foot Section”
  • Adrienne Kramer, CEO/President of Pro Beauty Partners: “Flash Sales Sites – Maximizing the Latest Beauty Channel”
  • Dana B. Myers, Founder of Booty Parlor: “From Niche to Mainstream:When a Vision Can Fill a Void”
  • Cindy Engstrom, Founder & CEO of Sircle Advertising: “Humanizing the Online Brand – Consumer Connection”
  • Nicolle Lubman, President of MOR Cosmetics: “Inspiring Ways to Connect with Consumers”
  • Elaine Binder, President & Co-Founder of Spongeables: “Transforming Inspiration into SKUs”
  • Kym Wechsler, Founder and President of Calm and Scents: “R2F Raw 2 Finished: How inspiration Leads to Creating and Launching Award Winning Products”
  • Terri Ross, Aesthetic Business Director for Garth Fisher, M.D.: “Strategic Ways to Expand into Aesthetics/Cosmetic Surgery Practices”

Our BBR7 Thought Leaders (l to r): Cindy Engstrom, Jennifer Parks, Terri Ross, Adrienne Kramer, Frances Mazur (President of Mazur Group), Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, Kym Wechsler, Elaine Binder, Dana Meyers, and Nicolle Lubmann.

BBR7 Sponsors include: Beauty Industry West, Booty Parlor, Calm & Scents, GCI, MaCher, MOR Cosmetics, OPI Products, Inc., Pro Beauty Partners, Sexy Hair Concepts, Sircle Advertising, Spongeables, WWD, and Cosmopak – the Keynote Sponsor.

January 25th, 2012: Beauty Biz Roundtable BBR6

By Romina on January 26, 2012

Beauty Biz Roundtable BBR6 was a huge success based on our incredible Thought Leaders!

Our BBR6 Keynote speaker was Lori Jacobus, CMO of Murad, whose keynote address was “Teamwork: Utilizing Individual Strengths to Create a Dynamic Team.”

Lori revealed that “According to a worldwide study conducted by Tower Watson, the single highest driver of workplace engagement is whether or not workers feel their managers are genuinely interested in their well-being.  Turns out less than 40% of workers feel that their managers care about them as people.  In my 25+ years of experience in the workplace, I’ve seen many more managers who are comfortable having “course-correction” conversations – those tough love meetings where we tell people to straighten up—but I’ve rarely found managers who motivate through reinforcement and appreciation. My personal style is to try to work from that space since it makes for a more productive staff and a better working environment for all of us.”

The Beauty Biz Roundtable BBR series, held at the Sheraton Delfina in Santa Monica, brings together 100 Mid to Senior Level Beauty Executives in a roundtable format that fosters networking and idea sharing. This is NOT a lecture or panel discussion.

Other BBR6 Thought Leaders included:

  • Alisa Beyer, Founder, The Beauty Company: “2012 Pink Report: Using ‘Emotional Science’ to segment the US Beauty Consumer”
  • Carina Breda, VP of Marketing, Orly International: “How Orly Doubled Biz in a Down Economy: Putting Business Processes in Place”
  • Jack Davies, Founder, Collective Wellbeing: “Product Development: Trends in Natural Cosmetics”
  • Alice Kim, President, Lash Card: “Launching Your Own Beauty Company”
  • Merritt Loughran, President, MML PR: “How Big Brands and Small brands Fight for Celebrity Attention”
  • Shel Pink, Founder, SpaRitual: “Slow Beauty - A New Evolution in the Industry”
  • Kate Scherer, Co-Founder & Director, Product 360: “The Art of The Creative Process – Do’s and Don’ts for successful Launches & Brand Platforms”
  • Kim Vo, Master Colorist & Celebrity Stylist

BBR6 Thought Leaders (l to r): Kim Vo, Alice Kim, Shel Pink, Merritt Loughran, Frances Mazur, Kate Scherer, Lori Jacobus, Carina Breda, Jack Davies

BBR6 Sponsors include: The Beauty Company, Collective Wellbeing, GCI, Lash Card, MaCher, Orly International, Product 360, SpaRitual, Kim Vo, WWD, and Cosmopak – the Keynote Sponsor.
