Prosperous Moves
Business Relations to Elevate Your MedSpa
Building a successful medspa is not a solo act. You can have the best medical aesthetics treatments, the most skilled injectors, and the most luxurious ambiance, but if no one knows about you, what’s the point?
The fastest-growing medspas don’t just rely on walk-ins or Instagram ads. They strategically align with other businesses, vendors, and influencers to expand their reach, build credibility, and boost profits.
That’s where you come in. Today, we’re diving into seven game-changing ways to form powerful business relationships that drive real revenue for your medspa and wellness center. And I’m not talking about just swapping business cards and hoping for the best. Nope. We’re going full strategy mode—so grab your notepad and let’s get to work!
1. Find “Prosperous Player” Businesses That Align with Your medspa Brand
Best strategic partners for your medi spa:
✔ High-end hair salons & day spas
✔ Luxury gyms & Pilates, & yoga studios
✔ Bridal boutiques & wedding planners
✔ High-end boutiques & jewelry stores
How to approach them:
- Do your research. Follow them on social media, engage with their content, and understand their clientele.
- Reserve a treatment! Want a salon/dayspa to refer clients to you? Get your hair done there, chat with the owner, and express your admiration for their work. People love working with those who support them first.
- Reach out with a win-win idea. Instead of saying, “Hey, let’s refer each other clients,” say, “I love your business, and I think our brands could create something amazing together. How about we co-host a VIP event for our top clients?”
2. Make Your Vendors Your VIP Growth Partners
How to get more from your vendors:
- Ask for exclusive pricing. If you’re a high-volume buyer, you deserve discounts and perks. Don’t be afraid to negotiate.
- Request marketing support. Vendors often have ready-made marketing materials, social media content, and training sessions—use them!
Action Step: Schedule a quarterly business meeting with your key medspa vendors to strategize ways to boost sales together.
3. Build Influence Through Local Celebrities & Experts
Partner with influential figures in your community! Who can bring you credibility & exposure
✔ Beauty, fashion, and lifestyle influencers
✔ Fitness instructors & yoga studio owners
✔ Local TV personalities & radio hosts
✔ High-profile doctors & wellness experts
How to approach them:
- Offer them a “first-timer” VIP experience. Give them a complimentary gift card and have them document it on social media.
- Make it fun & personal. Say something like:
[Name], I LOVE what you do, and I think my audience would too! Let’s team up. I’d love to treat you to an amazing glow-up and introduce your followers to our VIP experience.”
4. Become a Community Favorite (and the Talk of the Town!)
Ways to increase your local presence:
- Sponsor a charity event and offer complimentary skin consultations.
- Network with other business owners. See the mbu module on b2b success
- Host free wellness & beauty workshops at high-end country clubs complexes.
How to approach community leaders:
- Instead of just saying “I want to be involved,” ask, “How can I support your cause or event in a way that benefits your audience and my business?”
- Offer a value-packed experience – such as free skin analyses, gift bags for high-end real estate open houses.
Action Step: Reach out to one community organization and present a partnership idea this month.
