Telisa Larken & Jill McIver - 'The Business of Injecting (Chapter 18)' #303

Episode 303 hosts Telisa Larken (Registered Nurse from Newcastle, Australia) and Jill McIver (Registered Nurse from Sydney, Australia). 

In 'The Business of Injecting' episodes we host injectors and clinic owners to discuss all aspects of the business side of their clinic. We analyse their financial struggles and challenges, difficult decisions, friction points, staffing, hiring, firing and other topics relevant for aesthetic business owners.

In this episode we host two quite different clinic owners to share and reflect on their businesses. Our guests share their journeys, insights into the initial challenges of opening, how they market, find new staff and more.

Our conversation also highlights the importance in Australia for nurses to have a reliable scripting partner in InstantCosmetics - to support their compliance, purchasing of products, training and upskilling.
