Is Your Assistant Slow AF? Let’s Talk Timing, Reps, and Reality

<p>This one might hit a nerve… but we’re saying it anyway.</p><p>Assistants are SLOW in the beginning.</p><p>That’s normal. That’s expected. That’s part of the process.</p><p>But here’s where things start to go sideways…They stay slow—and you start getting frustrated—without ever giving them a clear target to work toward.</p><p>In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between normal beginner slowness and a full-blown training gap… and what you need to fix ASAP if you want your assistants to actually improve.</p><p>We’re talking about:</p><ul><li>Why “pick up the pace” is NOT real direction (and what to say instead)</li><li>The exact moment you should start focusing on speed in your training program</li><li>How reps + timing + pressure = confidence (and faster assistants)</li><li>The biggest mistake salon owners make when it comes to assistant growth</li><li>My simple system to build speed without sacrificing skill</li></ul><p>Because here’s the truth…<br>Speed is a skill. And skills are built with reps and clear expectations.</p><p>If you don’t have timing standards, structure, or urgency built into your training… you don’t have a “slow assistant” problem—<br>You have a system problem.</p><p>And we’re fixing that today.</p><p><strong>Grab the tools I mentioned:</strong>Timing Goals Sheet: <a href="https://canva.link/32anwhjqghy3u3v" target="_new" rel="noopener"><strong>https://canva.link/32anwhjqghy3u3v</strong></a>Ultimate Assistant Guide: <a href="https://lg-education.mykajabi.com/ultimateassistantguide" target="_new" rel="noopener"><strong>https://lg-education.mykajabi.com/ultimateassistantguide</strong></a><strong></strong></p><p>Got something you want me to cover on the podcast?
