Module 1

Your Mindset

The first step to becoming a successful beauty entrepreneur involves working on yourself. Starting your own makeup, haircare or skincare business will be one of the hardest and yet most rewarding steps you ever take, which means that you need to be prepared. Getting your mindset sorted is critical to starting your journey of launching a beauty product business.

In this Module, the Formula Botanica team and our web summit speakers Melinda Coss, Shola Kaye, Tamu Thomas and Nicola Rae-Wickham tackle topics such as struggling with visibility, managing your money and time mindset and learning how to set goals. Although these topics may not be where you want to begin when starting your beauty brand, we promise you that all of the hard work you put in at the beginning will pay off in the long run. We refer back to this Module in every other part of the Diploma and need you to be prepared for what’s coming. Welcome to Module 1 on Mindset.

Module 2

Beauty Branding & Market Research

It’s easy to think that you can formulate a beauty line, create a logo in-house and then start selling. However, a successful beauty business has a clear vision and purpose. Module 2 requires you to establish why you are creating this beauty brand. We’ll start by taking you through all of the market research you need to conduct, including establishing your niche, your target customer, your competitors and the beauty trends you want to cater for.

You will need to ask yourself some very challenging questions in this Module and come up with a life-changing vision for your beauty business. Once you know who you are and what you stand for, it’s then time to create your sensory brand. Visual beauty branding alone is not sufficient in this competitive market, so we’ll also teach you how to bring tactile, olfactory, audio, gustatory and emotional branding into your business. In this Module, the Formula Botanica team welcomes Sarirah Hamid, Imogen Matthews, Rachel Roberts, Briena Sash and Lorraine Dallmeier to teach you the intricacies of beauty branding.
