“I am running this business and living this crazy entrepreneur life of working 100 hours a week so that I don’t have to work 40 hours a week”. Rachel Apfel Glass talks to Alexa Cawley all about the entrepreneur life and how she wouldn’t trade it for anything in episode 65 of The Friday Society Podcast.

Hey everyone!! Super excited to bring you this short but majorly packed episode with Rachel Apfel Glass, CEO and Founder of Glosslab! Rachel and I got to talk all about her story from beginning to present on pre-research, opening, and growing Glosslab to the 20+ and 20 coming) location nationwide nail care chain. 


Here’s just a short list of what we get into: 

  • Disrupting an industry and creating a chain when there wasn’t one before
  • Taking an industry that is well known for mistreating workers and focusing on a great employee experience 
  • Organically working with influencers (shoutout Sweats & the City and catch their episode here)
  • Opening two studios at once, and how she was able to balance that 
  • Acquisition — how they get new members through grassroots efforts, local partnerships, and more
  • Client Retention — creating a great member experience for the long term and techniques to do that
